Studiocanal Renews Nickelodeon Global Deal on ‘The Adventures of Paddington’ Season 3 | Mipcom

CANNES  — Top European powerhouse Studiocanal has renewed its global deal with Nickelodeon which will board Season 3 of CG-animated megahit The Adventures of Paddington.

Credit: Marmalade Films Limited - Mascaret Films SAS 2021

Marking one of the biggest single title content deals unveiled at Mipcom this year, the Nickelodeon renewal for Season 3 comes as Studiocanal has also unveiled a slew of second-window deals on Season 1 after the title’s hugely successful global rollout overseen, like Season 2, by Nickelodeon. It comes just months after Studiocanal announced in June that Dougal Wilson is attached to direct Paddington 3, the third feature film in the franchise.

Together, the renewal, sales and new movie confirm Paddington as not only the biggest franchise at Studiocanal – at a time when the production-distribution-international sales giant is looking to expand its brand activity, says Studiocanal CEO Anna Marsh – but as one of the most powerful in Europe. 

Not for nothing, the late Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her Platinum Jubilee in June this year with a video of her having tea with Paddington.


Teased by Marsh at a 2021 Cannes Festival Studiocanal presentation, The Adventures of Paddington Season 3 is a Heyday Films and Studiocanal production in association with Copyrights. 

Reprising key creative talent, it is directed by Blue Zoo Animation Studio’s (It's Pony, Digby Dragon, Go Jetters, Miffy, Q Pootle 5) Adam Shaw and Chris Drew. The series is developed for television and written by Jon Foster and James Lamont (The Amazing World of Gumball, Cuckoo, Paddington 1, 2 & 3), who also serve as executive producers.

Studiocanal has now made a slew of additional sales of Season 1 to major streaming services Netflix U.K and HBO Max across Europe and to the Viaplay Group in the Nordic region.

Public broadcasters across Europe have also acquired the series, including Česká Televize Czech Republic, MTVA Hungary, LTV Latvia, LRT Lithuania, TVP ABC Poland, RTVS Slovakia and DR Denmark. 

Season I has been licensed to further significant partners such as HKTVE Hong Kong, ABC Australia, TVNZ (New Zealand), MBC’s Shahid (MENA) and both CBC and Radio-Canada across English and French-speaking Canada respectively.

Studiocanal holds worldwide rights to the series. 

“It is such an honour for the Studiocanal team to sell this incredible series featuring the world’s most beloved bear and to enjoy his continued success and worldwide appeal which is so genuine and heartfelt across the globe,” Anne Cherel, Studiocanal EVP global sales and distribution and Beatriz Campos, its SVP global sales and production financing told Variety. They called Paddington a “treasured and cherished character for many generations – for many years” and praised its “carefully crafted series episodes.”

For Marsh, “it is a genuine privilege for all of us at Studiocanal to look after this bear. From the development, production and distribution of the beloved Paddington films and TV series to filming with Her Majesty The Queen and Paddington Bear for the Platinum Jubilee this quintessentially British brand has a heart, decency and kindness which resonates not only globally but for people of all ages.”

The Adventures of Paddington follows a younger Paddington as he writes letters to Aunt Lucy celebrating the new things he has discovered through the day’s adventures in London. Golden Globe, BAFTA and International Emmy Award-winning actor Ben Whishaw (Paddington 1,2 & 3) voices the role of the title character. The theme song is written and performed by Gary Barlow (Take That).

The Adventures of Paddington is executive produced by multi-award-winning David Heyman, producer of every single Harry Potter film and Paddington 1, 2 & 3) and Rosie Alison (Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, Paddington 1, 2. & 3). It is produced by Karen Davidsen, who was formerly with Disney and HIT Entertainment) and Simon Quinn (Isle of Dogs, Fantastic Mr. Fox) and co-executive produced by Rob Silva.  

The series is a Marmalade Films and Mascaret Films co-production, with the participation of Nickelodeon, M6 and Piwi+.  

“We are so thrilled to introduce Paddington to new generations (to come) while delivering new stories for his established and loyal fanbase and indeed our global partners. Paddington’s adventures are so universal, delightful and with just the right touch of chaos it’s an incredible pleasure to be part of his journey,” Cherel and Campos added.

Nickelodeon Properties Become Firm Favourites In Europe

Kids Platforms and Channels Benefit from Strong Shows


During the first half of 2022, beloved kids’ shows are being revived by successful reboots and spin-offs. Programs extend from platforms to TV channels and also explore the audio environment with podcasts inspired by TV series and vice-versa. In terms of contents, trends reinforce and fine-tune existing topics.

Médiamétrie’s international department Glance analyses the kids’ shows market at MIPJunior and reveals global content trends, the Radio & Television Business Report reports.

Reboots and spin-offs propel themselves up to top new shows

Since the beginning of 2022, younger viewers have continued giving a warm welcome to reboots of well-known IPs. The Smurfs (Peyo Productions / Ellipse Animation) and Nicholas’ Fantastic Summer (Media Valley) illustrate this trend. Successfully launched in France and the UK in 2021, The Smurfs made a brilliant start with pre-schoolers in Germany and Italy in 2022. The new series on Nicholas’ adventures was M6 Kids 3rd best program among 4 to 10 year-olds. A reboot of the Teletubbies (WildBrain) is due on Netflix next November.

Taking advantage of strong IPs and characters, content producers also launched spin-offs, which significantly appealed to children. The Patrick Star Show (Nickelodeon Animation Studio) – a spin-off from Nickelodeon's beloved animated series SpongeBob SquarePants – ranked first among children on Nickelodeon in Germany and Super! in Italy. In the UK, Star Trek: Prodigy (Nickelodeon Animation Studio) – the first children-oriented spin-off from the iconic Star Trek franchise – ranked third among 4 to 15 year old viewers on Nickelodeon. In this country The Boss Baby: Back in Crib (Dreamworks Animation Television) ranked second best new series on Netflix.

“Several spin-offs feature younger versions of the initial title’s characters such as We Baby Bears, Oggy Oggy, Kamp Koral, Spidey and his amazing friends.” Candice Alessandra, Client & Research Manager at Glance.

Glance has identified several trends in children’s programs over the past 6 months.

Make it younger: formats initially aimed at adults have been adapted for younger viewers: they can feature adventures, cooking, and even crime. The Dutch programme Rachel Valt Binnen (EO) relates police investigations in a way adapted to a younger audience. Broadcast in February 2022, it was a real success and multiplied the slot’s audience share by 2.5 among the 6 to 12.

Nature and scientific experiments: pedagogical and fun programmes propose a renewed approach to scientific facts. There is also increased interest for nature like for example in Anna Auf Dem Bauern Hof or Welcome to Permacity (Millimages – in development), where nature enters the city to raise awareness on environment, sustainability, recycling, etc.

Fantasy and adventures still are a good recipe for success: the Turkish animated series Sagun (Animistik Stüdyo) mixes codes of the past with Fantasy while the sci-fi Israeli live action series Infinity (Storiez) is focused on the future. Sagun increased the audience share of its slot by 47% in 5-to-11-year-olds.

Programmes promote new role models and diversity. Superheltskolen (Seefood TV) features ordinary kids as imperfect superheroes.  It is a Norwegian live action in the cartoon slapstick tradition. The same for strong girls (Marvel’s Moongirl & Evil Dinosaur) who can fail in their plans, with humour.

Circulation of content between video, audio platforms and broadcasters

Candice Alessandra analyses: "We observe growing osmosis between platforms and linear TV, as programmes circulate between them. A more recent trend is the boom of audio content linked to audiovisual.”

Launched on Netflix in 2021, the pre-school series Oggy Oggy (Xilam Animation) launched on Linear TV in the UK (Channel 5), and Italy (Frisbee) this month. The Boss Baby: Back in Business, Cocomelon and Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous all premiered on platforms and were successfully transfered to TV channels in several European countries.

The public’s growing appetite for audio content inspires broadcasters and platforms: Netflix released its first podcast in January 2022 Bedtime Stories with Netflix Jr., Sensical offered a podcast based on PBS Kids IPs such as Molly of Denali and Pinkalicious & Peterrific. Amazon’s podcast studio Wondery also launched early this year its kid version with original audio content such as The Adventures of Cairo.

A few audio streaming services have directly dealt with producers to adapt their IP’s to their catalogue. The kids’ audio-streaming service Pinna launched an audio series Dinosaur Train: Ride along Adventures, while Spotify launched Cocomelon Story Time.

Finally, podcasts also inspire TV series: Maddie + Triggs (Turnip + Duck) – an Irish pre-school animated series – is based on a previous podcast. The kids podcast company Wonkybot also works on the adaptation of its Tara Tremendous series to a film and later TV series.
