A fresh family adventure hits Australian cinemas on New Year’s Day with Paddington in Peru all set to bring brand new jungle fun. 

The Paddington film franchise brings another charming instalment — Paddington in Peru with Ben Whishaw (This Is Going to Hurt, Black Doves) reprising his voice role as the titular character. This time, Paddington and the Browns embark on a trip to Peru to find Aunt Lucy. 

Joining the cast of Paddington 3 are Antonio Banderas, Olivia Colman, and Hayley Atwell. Emily Mortimer, best known for her latest roles in The Pursuit of Love and The New Look, has also replaced Sally Hawkins as Mrs. Brown in the third film. Here’s everything to know about the new family movie.

Paddington in Peru’s release date in Australia is happening on Wednesday, 1 January 2025. It originally premiered in the UK last 8 November 2024. 

The premiere in Australia is ahead of its US release date, which is now scheduled for Valentine’s Day.

Paddington sets out on a mission to find and rescue his Aunt Lucy after learning she has gone missing in Peru. With the help of his adoptive family, the Browns, they embark on a journey like never before, navigating the Amazon jungle in search of Paddington’s last remaining relative. 

In the middle of the search, they meet a treasure hunter played by Antonia Banderas, who has a selfish mission of his own.  As their search continues, Paddington the Bear and the Browns discover that Aunt Lucy’s disappearance is not what it seems and there are external forces setting a trap for them. 

Paddington 3 is directed by Dougal Wilson from a screenplay written by Mark Burton, Jon Foster, and James Lamont. It is based on Michael Bond’s character Paddington Bear with Rosie Alison producing.
