Another trailer for Peter Rabbit 2 has dropped ahead of the much awaited sequel's release on May 17th.

Yep, Sony and Columbia Pictures has released a brand new sneak peek at the upcoming movie to whet our appetites this morning - and Peter looks like he's turned his naughty streak up a notch.

Check out the trailer below:

In case you missed it, Beatrix Potter's lovable bunny Peter (voiced by James Cordon) is back for another feature-length animated movie, directed by Will Gluck - and he's bringing Flopsy (Margot Robbie), Mopsy (Elizabeth Debicki) and the rest of his gang along with him for the ride.

As Bea (Rose Byrne) and Thomas (Domhnall Gleeson) focus on starting their life together (and maybe even a family), the new film will see a slightly neglected Peter going off the rails.

One day, in a strop, he heads out of the garden and finds a much naughtier group of friends on the streets.

But when Peter's family realise he's missing and make huge sacrifices in a bid to bring him home, he faces a conundrum. Does he stay in his new life, or run back to safety?

The official description reads: "Bea, Thomas, and the rabbits have created a makeshift family, but despite his best efforts, Peter can't seem to shake his mischievous reputation.

"Adventuring out of the garden, Peter finds himself in a world where his mischief is appreciated, but when his family risks everything to come looking for him, Peter must figure out what kind of bunny he wants to be."

The film was originally meant to be released in March 2020, but patient fans have been forced to wait as it was delayed again and again as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

Its was pushed back to August 7th 2020, but when Covid-19 persisted, it was put on hold again.

We're so happy that Peter Rabbit is finally hitting the big screen. About time, too!
