Renée Zellweger has a new accomplishment to journal about ... her iconic character Bridget Jones will be immortalized in Central London with a statue!

A bronze cast of the romcom heroine is set to debut in November in London's Leicester Square on the Scenes in the Square movie statue trail ... an ode to London's film industry with statues of some iconic cinema characters.

The statue's new home is located very close to where the fourth 'Bridget Jones' movie -- "Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy" -- premiered earlier this year ... so, it's a familiar stomping ground for Zellweger, who will attend the unveiling ceremony next month.

American actress Meredith Salenger was just 15 years old when she played Natty Gann -- the adventure-seeking tomboy opposite John Cusack -- in the 1985 family/adventure movie "The Journey of Natty Gann."
