Meanwhile, the filmās director, Paul King, also joined in the general silliness by adding a tongue-in-cheek response himself when speaking with The Hollywood Reporter: āItās extremely lovely to be on any list which includes Citizen Kane, but it is obviously quite an eccentric list that goes from Citizen Kane to Paddington 2, so Iāll try not to take it too seriously. I wonāt let it go too much to my head and immediately build my Xanadu. But I have been cooking up a model just in case.ā Weāre hoping that Kingās next project, the Willy Wonka prequel story Wonka, wonāt be the Xanadu that he mentions, a reference to the famously messy musical feature. Meanwhile, Paddington Bear will feature next in the announced Paddington 3. Weāre sure he wonāt let all of this absurd nonsense go to his head either. Well, mostly sure. ā Thank you for visiting!
