About the Paddington saga
Paddington, the bear who arrived in London from "darkest Peru" with a hat, a suitcase and a note asking someone to look after him, was created by Michael Bond in 1958. 'Paddington' (2014), directed by Paul King, brought him to the screen with the voice of Ben Whishaw, the Brown family who take him in, and Nicole Kidman as a taxidermist who wants him stuffed.
'Paddington 2' (2017), with Hugh Grant as the vain actor Phoenix Buchanan, is one of the best-reviewed films of its decade. Both are a lesson in British family filmmaking: gentle humour, marmalade and the belief that if you're kind and polite, the world will be right.
'Paddington in Peru' (2024), directed by Dougal Wilson, took the bear back to Peru to look for his Aunt Lucy, with Olivia Colman and Antonio Banderas in the cast.
