With the first movie grossing over $325 million worldwide from a $50 million production budget, it will probably come as little surprise to hear that Sony has given the go ahead to a Peter Rabbit sequel.
The follow-up to the live-action/CG-hybrid family adventure will open on February 7th 2020 in the U.S. and March 27th 2020 in the UK, with Will Gluck once again writing and directing. The cast – which includes James Corden, Domhnall Gleeson, Rose Byrne, Daisy Ridley, Margot Robbie and Elizabthe Debicki – are also expected to return.

Peter Rabbit, the mischievous and adventurous hero who has captivated generations of readers, now takes on the starring role of his own irreverent, contemporary comedy with attitude. In the film, Peter’s feud with Mr. McGregor (Domhnall Gleeson) escalates to greater heights than ever before as they rival for the affections of the warm-hearted animal lover who lives next door (Rose Byrne). James Corden voices the character of Peter with playful spirit and wild charm, with Margot Robbie, Elizabeth Debicki, and Daisy Ridley performing the voice roles of the triplets, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cottontail.
