Bummer!

Earlier today, Working Title Films released the following statement regarding progress on Bridget Jones' Baby, which WAS just about go into production:

"Reports that Hugh Grant has exited Bridget Jones’s Baby are untrue. We are still working on the script hence the delay to the start of production, but the film is going ahead as planned."

The studio claims that the film will still shoot this year, but it could be much later in the year! A source close to the movie is saying that the cast/crew have been told that "the delay could stretch into the fall."

We just hope it gets made, sooner or later! We generally prefer original movies to sequels and threequels…but this is one we'd really like to see! Especially because the original cast will be back!

What do U think? Will the next Bridget Jones movie start production this year???

That's one person who's not watching Charlie Sheen's comeback to TV.

Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre stated that he won't be watching Anger Management, the warlock's new show.

Sheen was fired after a public tiff with Lorre so there is some bad blood between them.

Anger Management was picked up in October by FX. Lorre did wish showrunner Bruce Helford the "best of luck."

Lorre also addressed rumors of Hugh Grant replacing Charlie Sheen. The showrunner admitted he wanted Sheen's replacement to be in his 40s or 50s. But he says after meeting Ashton, he had to "let go of the old idea" of Grant.

Two And A Half Men continues to show strong ratings since Sheen left.

Hugh Grant's fight against the paparazzi has reached Parliament.

Grant spoke before Parliament about the rights of privacy when it comes to the tabloids.

Grant first had problems when he and Elizabeth Hurley were together. News of the World was caught targeting the two and hacking Grant's privacy.

Another instance occured when the press stalked his infant child and baby mama Tinglan Hong.

Grant said the following about tabloid coverage:

Word around town is the man behind The Full Monty might be getting behind Bridget Jones 3!

After Bridesmaids director Paul Feig passed on it, everyone began agreeing the film needed a British director.

And Peter Cattaneo could bloody well be it!!

Whoever directs it, they better do a good job! We wanna see Hugh Grant and Colin Firth from the best angles possible!

Looks like he's not just after News of the World anymore!

To recap, back in July, Hugh Grant opened up about his decision to expose the News of the World (NOTW) phone hacking scandal to the world.

Then, last week we heard AWFUL reports that the mother of Hugh's child had been harassed AND threatened after he spoke to the press.

Today, Hugh appeared in court to testify on the phone hacking scandal case…but he also slammed other tabloids for their invasions of privacy:

We're sorry to hear this, Hugh, but we still think U did the right thing!

Back in July, Hugh Grant opened up about exposing the News of the World phone hacking scandal.

Now, we're hearing that Hugh's baby mama has been harassed AND has received threats after he spoke to the press!

Here's what barrister David Sherborne QC, who is representing many phone-hacking victims, had to say about it:

What a surprise!

That's right, 51-year-old Hugh Grant has recently welcomed the birth of a daughter!

This is the first child for Hugh, as for the baby momma... we don't know. Actually, Hugh is keeping any and all info about the mother of his only child (including her identity) under wraps.

All we know is it's someone that gave birth, somewhere on Earth, in early October. But who cares? (We do, but only a lot.) What's important is that Hugh is happy!

"He's going to be a great dad! He's beaming about his daughter. He's not with the mum anymore but he's absolutely thrilled."

Reveals a source.

In 2007, the British actor told Vogue he was ready to be a father:

"As much as I adore myself, I'm quite keen to find someone else to care about more. I remember reading a Warren Beatty quote when he finally had children and said what a relief it was to not be all me, me, me."

We wish Hugh -- and his mystery momma -- all the luck in the world!

Congratulations!
