He's already bought one popular kids character to the screen in "Harry Potter" and now producer David Heyman is to bring "Paddington Bear" to life. Heyman is re–teaming with Warner Bros. to make the movie which will be based on Michael Bond's series of books about a Peruvian bear found by the Brown family at London's Paddington station. "Paddington Bear is a universally loved character, and I have wanted to bring him to screen for some years. Michael Bond's 'Paddington' books have such wit, wonder and charm. Essentially, Paddington's story is that of an immigrant arriving in London and trying to find a home and a family. Above all, I love Paddington's unique style of comedy," Heyman said in a statement. This isn't the first time Paddington has come to life – he starred in a stop motion animated BBC TV series in the 1970s, and returned to the small screen more recently in a more traditionally animated show.
