Behind-the-Scenes Featurette for Dougal Wilson’s ‘Paddington in Peru’

“It’s a real village… making Paddington. And bringing it all together is this lovingly hand-crafted film you get to see.” Studiocanal UK has revealed a fun behind-the-scenes featurette for the sequel Paddington in Peru. It’s already playing in theaters in the UK right now and will open in the US starting in January 2025 in a few months. Continuing the adorable adventures of the Paddington Bear after the beloved Paddington (2014) & Paddington 2 (2017). In this, Paddington and his adopted family – the Browns – decide to visit his Aunt Lucy in Peru, only to end up lost in the Amazon rainforest (inspired by the spirit of Werner Herzog’s Fitzcarraldo) and stuck up in the Andes mountains. This fun British-Peruvian comedy adventure sequel stars Hugh Bonneville, Emily Mortimer, Madeleine Harris, Samuel Joslin, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, Carla Tous, and Antonio Banderas, plus Olivia Colman as “The Reverend Mother.” Plus the voices of Ben Whishaw as Paddington Brown and Imelda Staunton as Aunt Lucy. This was filmed on gigantic sets in the UK, and a few pick-up shots in Colombia and Peru. There’s some making of glimpses in this video showing all the huge sets and tons of extras needed to make it all look extra vivid & authentic. // Continue Reading ›
