Paddington 3 is on the way!

We are getting closer and closer to the release of the next installment of the franchise, centering around the popular red hat wearing teddy bear.

Titled Paddington in Peru, the upcoming movie is set to kick off production this summer, on July 24th to be exact, according to Deadline.

Dougal Wilson is set to make his directorial debut with the pic, from production company Studiocanal, taking over for Paul King, who helmed the first two.

“We have long been huge admirers of Dougal’s work, his stunning visual creativity, his storytelling, heart, emotion and humour. We are so thrilled that Dougal will be directing the third Paddington film. We look forward to bringing Paddington back to Peru for his next big screen adventure,” Studiocanal CEO Anna Marsh and EVP Global Production Ron Halpern shared in a statement.
