Few literary characters have endured as fondly as Paddington Bear. Created by Michael Bond in the late 1950s, this beloved Peruvian bear has captivated readers and filmgoers for generations. 

Seven years after the beloved Paddington 2, a film that continues to grace the top ten lists of cinephiles young and old worldwide, we’re once again reunited with our favourite marmalade-loving friend. This time, acclaimed music video director Dougal Wilson takes the helm, bringing his unique vision to this hugely popular franchise. The film’s story, is penned by Paul King, Mark Burton and Simon Farnaby.

Living happily with the Browns in Windsor Gardens, Paddington receives a letter from The Reverend Mother (Olivia Colman, hilarious), who runs the Home for Retired Bears. She shares that Aunt Lucy dearly misses him every single day. Determined to reunite with his beloved aunt, Paddington, with his newly acquired British passport in hand, sets off with the Browns—Henry (Hugh Bonneville), Mary (Emily Mortimer, stepping in as Mrs. Brown, taking over from Sally Hawkins), Judy (Madeleine Harris), Jonathan (Samuel Joslin), and Mrs. Bird (Julie Walters)— on a journey they’ll never forget. – HEYUGUYS

“Whishaw, through vocal inflections alone, makes you believe he is every furry inch the earnest, clumsy, well-mannered, not too easily riled Paddington. But “Paddington in Peru” belongs to Olivia Colman.” The New Yorker
