Following a Blockbuster Original

The first Zootopia film, which was released in 2016, was a phenomenal success both critically and commercially. The movie was named one of the top 10 films of 2016 by the American Film Institute and also won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature. At the box office, the film brought in over a billion dollars.

Zootopia 2 is scheduled to hit theaters on November 26, 2025. Here’s the official plot:

In ‘Zootopia 2,’ rookie cops Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman) find themselves on the twisting trail of a great mystery when Gary De’Snake (voice of Academy Award winner Ke Huy Quan) arrives in Zootopia and turns the animal metropolis upside down. To crack the case, Judy and Nick must go undercover to unexpected new parts of town, where their growing partnership is tested like never before. The Oscar-winning team of Jared Bush and Byron Howard (directors) and Yvett Merino (producer) are the principal filmmakers.

CM Punk attended the premiere earlier this week.
