Paddington 2 is an upcoming British-French family-comedy film directed by Paul King, co written by King and Simon Farnaby, and produced by David Heyman. It is the sequel to 2014's Paddington. The film stars Hugh Grant, Brendan Gleeson, Hugh Bonneville, Sally Hawkins, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, Peter Capaldi, Madeleine Harris, Samuel Joslin, and the voices of Ben Whishaw and Imelda Staunton. Production began in October 2016, and ended in June 2017. The film is set to release on 10 November 2017.

Premise

Paddington, having settled with the Brown family in Windsor Gardens, has become popular in his community. He sees a unique pop-up book in Mr. Gruber's antique shop, and performs several odd jobs to purchase it as a present for his aunt Lucy's 100th birthday. When the book is stolen, it is up to him and the Browns to apprehend the thief.[1]

Cast

Production

In April 2015, David Heyman, the producer of Paddington (2014), confirmed that he would produce a sequel to the film.[5] It was also announced that Paul King would return to direct and co write with Simon Farnaby.[6]

By October 2016, the cast of Paddington — Hugh Bonneville, Sally Hawkins, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, Peter Capaldi, Madeleine Harris, Samuel Joslin, Ben Whishaw and Imelda Staunton — were confirmed to be returning for the sequel, joined by new cast members Hugh Grant and Brendan Gleeson.

Principal photography began in the same month.[4] Framestore will provide the visual effects for the film.[7] Filming in Little Venice took place for three days.[8] Filming also took place at Shepton Mallet Prison.[9] Filming ended in the end of June 2017.[10]

Marketing

A video game based on the film, Paddington Run, will be released on iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices in fall 2017.[11]

Release

Paddington 2 is scheduled to be released on 10 November 2017 in the United Kingdom,[2] and in the United States on 12 January 2018 by The Weinstein Company.[12]

Sequel

In June 2016, StudioCanal CEO Didier Lupfer stated that the studio was committed to making a third Paddington film.[13]
