Sony has rescheduled the release of 'Paddington in Peru' to coincide with Valentine's Day and Presidents Day weekend, February 14, 2025, moving it from its original January 17 date. This strategic shift follows the film's strong UK opening and aims to avoid competition from other family films like 'Wicked' and 'Moana 2'. The new release date positions 'Paddington 3' as the sole family film until 'Snow White' in March, potentially boosting its box office performance.
