With Paddington in Peru having already been released in the United Kingdom, and expected to make its way into the United States and other international theaters soon, fans are wondering about the film’s chances at the US box office and if it will flop or succeed. The threequel follows Paddington as he travels to Peru to visit his Aunt Lucy, who resides in a home for retired bears. However, Paddington quickly finds himself in the middle of an exciting adventure that spans the Amazon rainforest and the mountain peaks of Peru, especially after the Brown family becomes involved.

So, will Paddington in Peru flop or succeed at the box office? Here is the box office prediction for the film explored.

How much is Paddington in Peru expected to make at the box office?

Paddington in Peru could make $15-20 million on opening weekend. However, this range could be subject to change as its United States release approaches. (via Box Office Pro)

Meanwhile, Box Office Theory presents a similar, albeit slightly higher range of $16-25 million. Thus, these opening ranges are in the same range area of the first Paddington film, which had an $18.9 million domestic opening and is higher than that of Paddington 2, whose opening was $11 million.

At the time of writing, it has collected $72.8 million internationally since the film’s UK release. This figure would grow following the US release.

The film’s budget is currently unknown. However, since the last two films were made on a budget that was $55 million or under, this film was also likely made on a budget in that range.

Will Paddington in Peru flop?

It remains to be seen whether Paddington in Peru will flop or succeed.

The last two films proved to be great successes and turned in a profit. Moreover, the film also had the highest opening in the United Kingdom. As such, considering both these factors, Paddington in Peru could meet success in the United States.

As of writing, the film has a 93% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This is slightly less than the first film’s 97% score and the second installment’s 99% score.
