About

In this vibrant follow-up to the adventures of the beloved mischief-maker, Peter Rabbit finds himself struggling with the expectations placed upon him by his human family, Bea and Thomas. Although he has settled into a routine of farm life, Peter begins to feel misunderstood when he discovers that Bea is writing a series of children’s books that paint him as a troublemaker. Feeling unappreciated and restless, Peter decides to leave the safety of the garden behind to explore the bustling city streets. During his journey away from home, he encounters a street-wise, older rabbit named Barnabas who possesses a mysterious past. Barnabas quickly becomes a mentor of sorts, drawing Peter into a high-stakes world of urban capers and elaborate thefts. As Peter adopts this new, rebellious persona, he must navigate the challenges of his double life while questioning where he truly belongs. Caught between his loyalty to his newfound friend and the longing for the family he left behind, Peter faces a series of trials that will test his character, his courage, and his understanding of what it means to be a good rabbit. The narrative blends fast-paced action with heartfelt lessons about identity and the importance of being true to oneself, all while keeping the mischievous charm that defines the iconic character.
