Which company distributed Paddington in the United Kingdom in 2014?

StudioCanal distributed Paddington in the United Kingdom in 2014.

The film was produced as a British-French project and released by StudioCanal, which was also involved in its production and international distribution. It opened in UK cinemas on 28 November 2014.

Paddington was directed by Paul King and adapted the character from Michael Bond’s books into a live-action and computer-animated family film. Its British release became an important part of StudioCanal’s expansion as a major European film distributor.

Distribution rights varied by territory, so the company associated with the UK release is not necessarily the distributor audiences saw in every country. In the United States, The Weinstein Company handled the theatrical release, a detail that can cause confusion in quiz answers.
