New teaser photos of ‘Paddington in Peru’

StudioCanal has shared preview images of the next Paddington film, Paddington in Peru. It’s the third film in the smash hit series, starring Ben Whishaw as the voice of Paddington Bear and Imelda Staunton as the voice of Aunt Lucy. 

From first trailer, we now know that Paddington 3 will see Paddington, the Brown family and Mrs Bird travel to Peru to find Paddington’s beloved Aunt Lucy, who has disappeared from the Home for Retired Bears

The images shared give us a hint of what is to come. Olivia Colman as a cheerful guitar/playing nun called ‘The Reverend Mother’, who runs the Home for Retired Bears, and Antonia Banderas as a swashbuckling river captain who steps in to help out the Brown family on their quest.
