Director Dougal Wilson, who takes the helm from Paul King, director of the first two films, understands the responsibility of handling an enduring story and is excited to share Paddington in Peru with the audience. “These films and the character of Paddington himself have become very cherished, beloved and have essentially created a lot of anticipation for a bit more Paddington,” he says. “That's why I'm really excited for audiences to see the next part of the story that we’ve decided to tell. It’s obviously a huge responsibility and quite nerve-wracking, but I really hope this new chapter will be full of surprises and an appropriate expansion of Paddington’s world.
