This Guy Has Been Photoshopping Paddington Bear Into Movies for Over 400 Days and Counting

You might love Paddington Bear, but chances are it’s not as much as Jaythechou. For 464 days and counting, he has Photoshopped the beloved animated bear into different stills from movies and television shows. And, there’s no end in sight. The project will occur until Jaythechou forgets, and it hasn’t happened yet.

Paddington is a critically loved film franchise; Paddington and Paddington 2 have a 97% and 99% on Rotten Tomatoes, respectively, and it was recently announced that the dapper fellow will head to South America for the third installment, Paddington in Peru.

Paddington’s adventures in his films are no match for Jaythechou’s Photoshopped images, though. The bear transcends space and time and is seen in the midst of a battle in The Gladiator, playing chess in The Queen’s Gambit, and even standing alongside Lego Batman in The Lego Batman Movie. In each image, Jaythechou manipulates the bear to fit the overall visuals of the scene. This makes him appear as though he’s always been there.

With this ambitious ongoing project, it begs the question: what can’t Paddington Bear do? Scroll down to see just how versatile he really is.
