West Side Story’s Rachel Zegler was also originally cast in Paddington in Peru; however, she was unable to film her scenes due to the ongoing Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AG-AFTRA) strike.

The first Paddington was released in 2014, followed by Paddington 2 in 2017.
