All eyes were on Renee Zellweger on Sunday night as she premiered not only her latest film but her curvaceous new figure. The stunning 37-year-old wowed onlookers at London's Leicester Square in a little black dress that showed off her shapely curves.

Renee is the star of Miss Potter, a biographical movie about beloved children's author Beatrix. The movie gives the Oscar-winner yet another chance to demonstrate her perfect English accent, which she put to use in two Bridget Jones films.

The actress seems to have picked up a taste for British cuisine, too, during filming in the capital and the Lake District. "I understand the beans on toast breakfast. I crave it," she admitted.

She was joined at the red carpet event by co-stars Ewan McGregor and Emily Watson. The Trainspotting star was thrilled by the opportunity to work with Renee again. "We did a film together called Down With Love and I had a great time working on that, so it was nice to work with her again," he said. The Scottish heart-throb, who plays her love interest - publisher Norman Warne - also says his family are big fans of Beatrix Potter stories, especially the one in which a farmer bears his name: "Peter Rabbit's great - I have got the whole Mr McGregor thing going on."
