Paddington duo Paul King and Simon Farnaby are bringing Prince Charming to the big screen for Disney.
Director Paul King cut his teeth on Noel Feilding and Julian Barratt’s surreal sitcom The Mighty Boosh, while writer Simon Farnaby was a member of the original Horrible Histories team, who later went on to make the hugely successful Ghosts. They made their feature film debut in 2009 with The Bunny And The Bull.
If 2014’s Paddington captured the hearts of the nation, then 2017’s Paddington 2 – one of the greatest family films ever made – turned them into absolute treasures.
They made a left field turn into prequel territory in 2023 with the delightful Wonka – The Divine Comedy’s Neil Hannon was robbed of the Best Song Oscar for Never Had Chocolate Like This – and since then film fans have been eager to see what the pair will do next.
Now, we have the answer.

Iconic Aardman characters Wallace and Gromit are back for feature length special Vengeance Most Fowl, here’s the trailer.
It’s a commonly held view among both animation aficionados and film fans in general that The Wrong Trousers is one of the best animated films ever made. 30 perfect minutes crammed with character, jokes and the most well directed train chase sequence every committed to film, it won a BAFTA and an Academy Award.
It’s perhaps no surprise then that for their big return to the small screen, Wallace and Gromit will face off against their iconic foe, Feathers McGraw once more in Vengeance Most Fowl.
The new film will be bigger in scope than its previous four short films – A Grand Day Out, The Wrong Trousers, A Close Shave and A Matter of Loaf and Death – and will in fact be a feature film closer in length to their...

Wallace and Gromit are finally back.
The stop-motion franchise returns early next year on Netflix with its first feature in 19 years, “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl.” And this time, the titular inventor and his dog are taking on AI.
Per the synopsis, Gromit is concerned that Wallace (Ben Whitehead) is becoming too dependent on his inventions, especially after Wallace invents “smart” gnome Norbot (Reece Shearsmith), who seems to develop a mind of its own.
“When it emerges that a vengeful figure from the past might be masterminding things, it falls to Gromit to battle sinister forces and save his master,” the description reads, “or Wallace may never be able to invent again!”
The “vengeful figure…masterminding things” is none other than villainous penguin Feathers McGraw, who appears for the first time in a feature film after debuting in the franchise’s Oscar-winning short “The Wrong Trousers.”

Wallace and Gromit are back — and they’re not alone.
The absentminded inventor and his loyal dog sidekick first debuted in 1989’s Oscar-nominated short “A Grand Day Out.” Their adventures would continue in a series of short films and a feature-length movie, “Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit” (which won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature). Now, they are back with a new animated movie, “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl.”
You can check out the brand-new first trailer, below, before the movie premieres Jan. 3, 2025, on Netflix.
In this new movie, Wallace (now voiced by Ben Whitehead) is testing out a new “smart gnome” that soon has a mind of its own. Meanwhile, Gromit starts to suspect that a villain from the duo’s past could be responsible — none other than Feathers McGraw, the diamond thief penguin from the Oscar-winning short, “The Wrong Trousers.” That’s right.

Starring a who's who of Great British talent, the threequel is led by Hugh Bonneville, Emily Mortimer, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, Madeleine Harris, Samuel Joslin, Imelda Staunton, and Olivia Colman.
Carla Tous and Antonio Banderas are also set to appear, while Ben Whishaw returns as the voice of Paddington.
While this sequel is setting out to tell a much bigger story than its predecessors (and moving the action outside of London), this new sneak peek suggests the Paddington franchise hasn't lost any of its charm. That's evident from the presence of an adorable Baby Paddington...Grogu and Baby Groot now have a rival for sheer cuteness.

Paddington is set to continue his adventures on screens big and small, as StudioCanal plans a Paddington 4 film and a television series.
It is almost a cliche by now to say that Paddington 2 is quite possibly one of the greatest family comedies ever made. In the words of Nicolas Cage in The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent, “Paddington 2 is incredible”. It’s one of the few films that really does live up to the hype, with Paul King’s direction and the screenplay he co-wrote with Simon Farnaby coalescing into one of the most wholesome, funny films in years.
That is quite a legacy to live up to, and we don’t have long to wait either – Paddington In Peru hits UK cinemas on the 8th November. King and Farnaby stayed on to co-write the story with Mark Burton, while the latter co-wrote the screenplay with Jon Foster and James Lamont.

Remember when our beloved Stanley Ipkiss / The Mask, Jim Carrey, found himself tangled up in a real-life court drama? The actor, now 62, was embroiled in not one, but two wrongful death lawsuits following the tragic suicide of his former girlfriend, Cathriona White, in 2015.
Jim Carrey in The Mask (1994) | New Line Cinema
These cases raise serious allegations, implicating Carrey’s alleged involvement in providing White with prescription drugs and his behavior during their on-again, off-again romance. For a quick recall, White, though married to Mark Burton since 2013 in Las Vegas, was still romantically linked to Carrey at the time of her death in 2015.
Fortunately, the legal circus didn’t drag on for too long. By 2018, both lawsuits were tossed out like yesterday’s leftovers. Attorneys for both sides confirmed there would be no further legal wrangling.

It looks like we finally have a streaming release date for the upcoming fantasy romance movie Girl Haunts Boy. It will reportedly be released on Netflix this October. The exact date is Thursday, Oct. 10, 2024, so make sure to save the date!
We first learned of this movie back in May 2022. However, it wasn't titled Girl Haunts Boy back then, nor was it billed as a movie. In fact, Netflix wasn't involved with the project in any way. Max, which was called HBO Max at the time, had greenlit the project, which was originally titled B-Loved. And instead of it being a movie, it was going to be a two-part television special event premiering on Max in time for Valentine’s Day 2023.
It's unclear what happened, but the special didn't end up being released on Max in February 2023. It didn't even come out this February. Now, we've just learned that Netflix...

“Paddington in Peru” is ready to charm you.
The third film in the “Paddington” franchise doesn’t hit theaters until early next year, but a new teaser at least gives you a little taste of the latest installment. Watch the teaser below.
In the brief teaser Paddington (once again voiced by Ben Whishaw) is getting his passport photo taken. Of course, there are all sorts of comical elements like him having a marmalade sandwich underneath his hat and having his face smashed against the camera. It is very cute and sweet and you also get a brief glimpse of him in South America, on a steamer.
This time around “Paddington in Peru” is directed by Dougal Wilson, a music video director who has helmed clips for Coldplay, Basement Jaxx and LCD Soundsystem. Wilson takes over from Paul King, who directed the first two entries (and who has a “story by...

He's taken on an evil taxidermist Nicole Kidman. He's bested Hugh Grant's thespian ne'er-do-well Phoenix Buchanan. Now, in Dougal Wilson's eagerly anticipated Paddington threequel Paddington In Peru, our beloved Ben Whishaw voiced bear is set to face his biggest foe yet. No, not Olivia Colman's seriously sus singing nun, or Antonio Banderas' riverboat captain for that matter (though we've got our eye on them both), but rather... a photo booth? Yup, you heard us right, folks. In the latest teaser for the sequel to one of the greatest movies of all time, we see Paddington helplessly tangle with a passport picture kiosk to admittedly quite hilarious effect. Check it out for yourself:
Oh Paddington, never change! Sure, this clip really does put the emphasis on the teaser in 'teaser trailer', but let's be honest, we were already well in the tank for more pratfalls and adventuring whimsy...

There's no such thing as a "perfect" movie, but "Paddington 2" comes pretty darn close. Writer/director Paul King's sequel to his original, itself a damn fine film too, was the best reviewed movie of all time on Rotten Tomatoes for a while, right up until someone who may or may not be the Brown family's boot-licking, prejudiced neighbor Mr. Curry (Peter Capaldi) in disguise decided to change that. Since there's no use wasting a hard stare on them, let's turn our attention to what's on the horizon — namely, "Paddington in Peru," the third entry in the live-action film series inspired by Michael Bond's cherished literary character.
Since King was preoccupied with last year's "Wonka" movie musical (finally dealing with that itch he started to scratch with the enchanting mid-credits jailhouse song-and-dance number from "Paddington 2"), directing duties on "Paddington in Peru" fell to seasoned music video helmer...

Wallace And Gromit return in feature length special Vengeance Most Fowl, a new 70 minute film coming this Christmas.
It’s a commonly held view among both animation aficionados and film fans in general that The Wrong Trousers is one of the best animated films ever made.

It’s perhaps no surprise that for their big return to the small screen, Wallace and Gromit will face off against their iconic foe, Feathers McGraw, once more in Vengeance Most Fowl. The BBC has confirmed that the new film will be bigger in scope than its previous four short films – A Grand Day Out, The Wrong Trousers, A Close Shave and A Matter of Loaf and Death – and will in fact be a feature film closer...

Exclusive: Sony Pictures has snapped up U.S., Canada and key international for Studiocanal and Heyday Films’ threequel Paddington in Peru.
Sony, which has a long history with live-action kids movies, i.e., Lyle Lyle Crocodile and Goosebumps, always wanted in on this franchise, and now they’ve notched it. When the North American rights for Paddington 2 came up in a $30 million-plus auction, Sony was one of the bidders with Warner Bros, though that sequel ultimately went to Heyday’s Harry Potter studio. Through two movies worldwide, Paddington has reaped over a half-billion at the box office with the franchise counting such BAFTA nominations as Best British Film and Best Adapted Screenplay.
Deadline first told you that the threequel was in the works. Paddington in Peru sees the bear embark on a new adventure that will take him from Windsor Gardens to Peru in the latest installment of the Paddington franchise.

Hang on to your hat — especially if that’s where you keep your marmalade sandwiches — because Paddington 3 will find the fuzziest member of the Brown family returning to his old stomping grounds in “Darkest Peru.” Deadline reports that the third installment in the franchise will begin production on July 24th, 2023, and will film on-location in both England and Peru. The threequel will be helmed by commercial director Dougal Wilson.
The first Paddington film came out in 2014 and began with the little bear’s journey from “Darkest Peru” to Paddington Station. 2017’s Paddington 2 opened with a flashback to his jungle home, before picking up in the hustle and bustle of London.
Paul King helmed these first two installments, but he’s tied up directing Timothee Chalamet in Wonka. “After ten years of working on the Paddington movies, I feel absurdly protective of the little bear, and I’m delighted...

Commercials director turned first-time feature filmmaker Wilson takes the reins from franchise director Paul King, who directed 2015’s “Paddington” and 2017’s “Paddington 2.”
“After 10 years of working on the ‘Paddington’ movies, I feel absurdly protective of the little bear, and I’m delighted that Dougal will be there to hold his paw as he embarks on his third big-screen adventure,” King said in a statement. “Dougal’s work is never less than astounding: funny, beautiful, heartfelt, imaginative, and totally original. Aunt Lucy once asked us to ‘Please Look After This Bear.’ I know Dougal will do so admirably.

Phew. It was all looking a bit quiet for a while there on the Paddington front – given that both Paddington and Paddington 2 are widely acclaimed films, it’s taken a while for the threequel to emerge. Last summer, we learned that the next Paddington film would be titled Paddington In Peru, and take the beloved bear back to his original jungle home – but beyond there, very little news has emerged. Until now.
Worry not, everyone – Paddington In Peru is still happening, and it’s happening soon. As reported by Deadline, it’s due to enter production this summer, with cameras rolling from July. And, as we’ve known for a while now, it’s going to be a filmmaker handover, with Paul King otherwise caught up in the chocolate factory with Wonka. Instead, In Peru will mark the directorial feature debut of Dougal Wilson (no pressure!), but with King,...
