A gentle story to ease us into the weekend
Paddington Bear is to make his movie debut in a live-action film comedy.
David Heyman, producer of the Harry Potter movie franchise, will produce the first cinema adaptation of Michael Bond's classic children's stories.
"I love Paddington's unique take on life," he said. "He is a great comic creation." Hamish McColl, writer of Mr Bean's Holiday, will pen the script.Paddington - named after the London railway station where he was found - made his first appearance in book form in 1958.
Warner Bros president of production Jeff Robinov said: "We're eager to collaborate once again with David... on this ageless classic."

| Ah, who doesn't love Paddington Bear. I use to watch him with my son when he was little. |
