The cute bear Paddington continues to bring fun for everyone in "Paddington 2". Our very own Kapamilya actor also continues to voice as Paddington, Xian Lim voice anew to one of Britain’s most beloved literary
bears.
Xian played around and stretched his voice acting as he took front
and center again in the second big-screen outing of the marmalade-loving bear
in the Philippines. The actor’s foray as a voice talent began in 2015
when he lent his voice for the film’s first installment.
In the film’s second installment, beloved bear Paddington,
now settled with the Brown family, picks up a series of odd jobs to buy the
perfect present for his Aunt Lucy's 100th birthday, only for the gift to be
stolen.
Although
he’s no stranger to dubbing, working on the second installment, according to
Xian, revealed just how much he really enjoys his newly-discovered skill.
While
the first movie delved on the establishment of Paddington’s character, the
second one unveiled the plucky, duffel-coated
furball’s crazy side.
Voicing
Paddington in the first installment has made Xian appreciate just how tedious
being a vocal talent is.
Now
that he was able to penetrate a certain niche, Xian hopes to be able to try
dubbing for other characters abroad.
Directed by Paul King distributed by Captive Cinema, Paddington 2 starring Hugh Grant, Hugh
Bonneville, Sally Hawkins and Xian Lim
(voice of Paddington for Philippine release) comes out in theaters
in January 31.
