Paddington in Peru – Successful cinema release!

Paddington continues to enchant his fans in his third cinema adventure. With his red hat and blue duffle coat, the lovable bear, who loves orange marmalade sandwiches, explores his home country of Peru together with the Brown family – in search of Aunt Lucy. The film has had a very successful start both internationally and in Germany.

Internationally, the box office results have already been impressive: In the UK, Paddington had the best cinema release in the history of Studiocanal UK and in Poland it is also the best cinema release for a family film for Kino Świat (Polish film distributor, part of the Canal+ Group). In Australia and New Zealand, box office takings are already well above those of the first Paddington film. The film has been showing in German cinemas since 30 January 2025: With the best German cinema release of the Paddington franchise and a direct jump to number 1 in the current German cinema charts, Paddington in Peru is convincing across the board.

The WDR mediagroup is the licence agency for Paddington in German-speaking countries and is delighted to be able to expand Paddington’s charming world with creative products through a wide range of cooperation opportunities for licencees.
