After a decade since the release of the second Bridget Jones Diary: The Edge of Reason, a third installment, Bridget Jones 3 is set to be initialized this year in 2014 but with some changes as Hugh Grant has announced not to participate as Daniel Cleaver saying there are changes in the script and simply, he is too old to perform the role. The announcement is made by the 55-year old actor himself in an interview on Friday with Free Radio in the Midlands.

"I decided not to do it. But I think they're going to go ahead and do it without Daniel. The book's excellent, by the way, but the script is completely different - well, the script as I last saw it a few years ago," the 55-year old Hugh Grant said as he used to play the love rat Daniel Cleaver who always intervenes Bridget's love affairs.

Plans of filming the third Bridget Jones "Bridget Jones Baby" reportedly started in 2011 but had just been revived on September. Tim Evans,  the co-chairman of Working Title Films earlier announced in the Huffington Post that there will be a reunion with Bridget (Renee Zellweger), Mark Darcy (Colin Firth) and Daniel Cleaver in the movie which is based on Helen Fielding's "Mad About the Boy".

The Music and Lyrics actor admitted that he had done much in the writing of the script of the second Bridget Jones movie but found it difficult and uneasy to play Daniel's role in the third installment.

"I'm always quite difficult,' he said. But I was really impossible on this one. And there was a lot of coming and going about the script and my part. To begin with, I was not convinced that Daniel Cleaver could ever go into television, a medium he despises. But I got my head around that and did a lot of work on just sort of trying to keep the cleverness of Daniel," he said.

Meanwhile, separate reports from the Mirror said that the Four Weddings and a Funeral actor generally hates his previous roles in a love comedy and would not want to do the same role again.

"Nowadays I pretty much turn everything down anyway, because I just feel too old. Certainly for romantic comedy and certainly for showbusiness in general. Occasionally, they wheel me out," he said.
