From today, audiences can join Paddington on a trip to the land where his remarkable journey began in the film's second trailer, which provides an enticing glimpse into the diverse landscapes of Peru that play a crucial role in his latest adventure.

“Paddington in Peru”, the new installment of the world's most famous bear, tells the story of his return to his homeland to visit his Aunt Lucy, who now resides at the Home for Retired Bears. Along with the Brown family, he embarks on an exciting adventure through the country.

With the trailer, viewers have been teased with a glimpse of what the incredible destination of Peru can offer. Paddington’s journey highlights the ancient Incan city of Machu Picchu, in the region of Cusco. This ancient site, known for its sophisticated dry-stone construction and panoramic views of the Andes, serves as a testament to the ingenuity of the Inca civilisation.

The movie also portrays iconic locations in the country's capital, Lima. The vibrant streets of its Historic Center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, filled with colonial architecture and bustling markets. The charming Miraflores boardwalk that overlooks the Pacific Ocean, where warm sunsets and coastal vistas create an idyllic backdrop.

Starring acclaimed actors Olivia Colman and Antonio Banderas, “Paddington in Peru” is a Studio Canal (United Kingdom) production based on the English children's story “A Bear Called Paddington” by writer Michael Bond. It will be released in the US and Canada cinemas on January 17, 2025.
