“Zootopia 2” is heading to theaters on November 26, 2025, and fans are finally getting a look at what Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde have been up to since their first big adventure. Turns out, things between the bunny and the fox aren’t going as smoothly as you’d expect. In fact, they’re now in therapy. Yep, couples therapy… sort of.
The latest trailer shows the two police partners meeting with a therapist, played by Quinta Brunson. It’s not exactly romantic therapy, though. As Judy points out, they’ve only been official police partners for a week. Still, things are rocky enough that Chief Bogo (voiced again by Idris Elba) has forced them into partner counseling. If they don’t fix their issues, he’s ready to break up the team.

Villains sometimes reveal their entire plan in a monologue, giving heroes a final chance to thwart them. Heroic movie characters survive dangerous situations, outsmart villains, and capitalize on distractions. Most villains could have succeeded if they remained silent and didn't underestimate the hero's cunning.
Villains in some well-known, even praised movies, have been known to give away their entire plan in a villainous monologue, allowing the hero one last chance to save the day. Most often, the villain reveals everything because they believe that they have won; the damage cannot be undone, or they are about to kill the hero, and it won't make any difference. They are just gloating about their victory to make it even worse for the hero. However, they might have been one of the movie villains who got away with their plan if they had remained silent.

A Brooklyn Nine-Nine backstory detail clarifies why Terry Jeffords supported season 1 minor character, Super-Dan. The police procedural sitcom comedy has a habit of providing beautiful character arcs and details within each role of the Nine-Nine to balance out the raucous humor and slapstick circumstances housed in the series. Sergeant Jeffords (Terry Crews) was afforded such elaboration throughout the show's run, and a peripheral season 1 storyline involving a rouge vigilante contributes to Terry's nearly seamless Brooklyn Nine-Nine development.
Among the evolution of Brooklyn Nine-Nine's cast of characters, Jeffords' character development is shown to be especially exceptional in season 1's "Full Boyle" episode where Terry supports the wannabe superhero Super-Dan (Nate Torrence) and his intentions to assist the precinct's looming drug investigation. At first, Super-Dan is rejected by both officers Amy Santiago (Melissa Fumero) and Rosa Diaz (Stephanie Beatriz) who dismiss him as a weird and wonky nuisance. However, Jeffords...

Exclusive: Kill the Orange-Faced Bear starring Damon Wayans Jr. will not be going forward at TBS. The cast and crew were just told about the decision, which comes a week before the comedy series was scheduled to begin production on its 10-episode order in Vancouver. I hear the project, which has a filmed pilot, will be shopped to other outlets by the producers.
This marks the first major decision to kill a WarnerMedia entertainment project following the completion of Discovery’s acquisition. It follows the new leadership’s recent move to swiftly pull the plug on CNN+ after just weeks of operation. Warner Bros. Discovery has pledged to deliver 3 billion in cost savings from the deal, and the demise of Kill the Orange-Faced Bear is believed to be a business, not a creative decision. Further culling of WarnerMedia divisions’ slates is expected as the new top executives examine the newly acquired assets,...

Wayans Jr., whose credits include the much-beloved “Happy Endings” as well as his disappearance and then reappearance on the hit “New Girl,” will be joined by Jessy Hodges (“Indebted”), Alex Karpovsky (“Girls”) and Nate Torrence (“Hello Ladies”).
Wayans Jr., who will also serve as an executive producer, plays Hank, described as a “charming, funny and grieving man who’s hell-bent on tracking down the bear who attacked his girlfriend on a camping trip.” “Kill the Orange-Faced Bear” will be told both from Hank’s point of view, as well as the Pov of the bear, “who is just trying to move on from the incident and navigate the other idiot bears in her life.”

This year's Zootopia was quite the pleasant surprise. Yes, in the past eight years or so, with the involvement of John Lasseter, Disney has been upping their animated game tremendously. From films like Bolt and The Princess And The Frog to Wreck-it Ralph and Tangled, they've certainly managed to make an amazing comeback. With that in mind, I went into Zootopia with a certain expectation of quality: I expected great characters, a tight script, some funny jokes, a decent amount of heart, and beautiful animation.
The movie more than delivered on those expectations without breaking a sweat. But what I did not expect was for Zootopia to be a well-told social commentary that brings awareness to racial stereotyping. From the get-go, that's what the movie set itself up as, and as I got deeper and deeper into the runtime, it became all the more clear that this was a bona fide classic.

“I am just a dumb bunny, but, we are good at multiplying!”
When I reviewed Zootopia here at We Are Movie Geeks, I wrote”, the beautifully designed, brightly-hued Zootopia is breezier and bouncier than most. The animation work is dazzling, lovingly detailed without being overdone. I felt like I could reach out and pet these furry critters, especially in eye-popping 3D.” (read all of my review Here)
Now you can own Zootopia on Blu-ray thanks to Walt Disney Animation Studios!
Zootopia has broken records worldwide earning more than $900 million at the global box office to date. The best reviewed movie of 2016, critics and audiences around the world have fallen in love with the wonderfully innovative animal metropolis of Zootopia and the comedic chemistry of rookie rabbit officer Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin) and scam-artist fox Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman). It’s been called one of the best buddy cop comedies in years!

Disney has had a dominant first half of the year at the box office, with the studio distributing three of the top 5 movies both domestically and worldwide. Captain America: Civil War currently leads both here in the states ($338.9 million) and overseas ($1.1 billion). Over the weekend, Disney's Zootopia also crossed $1 billion worldwide. However, Zootopia is currently fourth on the domestic charts with $337.2 million, behind the studio's third big hit this year, The Jungle Book ($347.7 million), 20th Century Fox's Deadpool ($362.9 million) and Captain America: Civil War.
Deadline reports that Zootopia earned an addition $4.4 million internationally to cross the $1 billion plateau. There have only been 26 movies in history that have crossed $1 billion, 11 of which have been distributed by Disney. Zootopia is also only the fourth animated movie to cross $1 billion, following Disney Pixar's Toy Story 3 ($1.06 billion), Universal's Minions ($1.1 billion) and Disney's Frozen ($1.2 billion).

Featuring a cracking voice cast, lush animation and an entertaining story at its heart, Zootopia not only proved to be one of this year’s early crowd-pleasers, it also soared close to $1 billion at the international box office.
That’s an impressive tally as is, but what really fired Byron Howard and Rich Moore’s animation into the history books was the fact that Zootopia stands as a successful movie, yes, but also an original one. In a report by Forbes, the outlet reveals that Howard and Moore’s adventure is now second only to James Cameron’s Avatar in Hollywood’s ranking of highest-grossing original movies; that is, feature films “not based on a television show, a comic book, a novel, or a stage play.”
This, coupled with the barnstorming success of Captain America: Civil War has ensured Disney’s box office haul for the year is nearing $4 billion in total.

Disney's Zootopia has become a box office sensation, taking in over $318 million domestically and $910.2 million worldwide since its release in early March. In case you didn't get a chance to see it in theaters, or just want to relive this animated comedy over and over again, Disney has announced that this blockbuster will be released on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD formats June 7. The studio has also released a new preview that breaks down several of the Disney Easter Eggs featured in this hit movie.
The preview comes from the Disney Movies Anywhere YouTube page, which shows the Zpd "investigating" the numerous Easter Eggs and references to other Disney movies featured within Zootopia. This video reveals that the city of San Fransokyo, from Disney's 2014 hit Big Hero 6, is featured as the "City of the Month" on Chief Bogo's (Idris Elba) calendar. Big Hero 6's Baymax is...

For the past six weeks, just two movies have dominated at the box office. First it was 20th Century Fox's Deadpool, whose three-week reign at the top was ended by Disney's Zootopia. According to the estimates from Box Office Mojo, the animated comedy has won its third week in a row, fending off two two new releases, Lionsgate's The Divergent Series: Allegiant and Miracles from Heaven. The Divergent Series: Allegiant was projected to come out on top, but its lackluster opening and a strong third week for Zootopia kept Disney's winning streak alive.
The Divergent Series: Allegiant was projected to take in $37 million in its opening weekend, which would normally result in an easy win, but it all depended on how much Zootopia dropped in its third frame. Last weekend, the animated blockbuster only dropped 31.9%, but this weekend, it only dropped 25.9%, passing the $200 million domestic milestone with $201.8 million. It has...

After a three-week stint atop the box office, 20th Century Fox's Deadpool was finally taken down by Disney's Zootopia earlier this month, which is putting together a solid run of its own. The animated comedy will go up against two new releases, Lionsgate's The Divergent Series: Allegiant and Miracles from Heaven in theaters this weekend, but, unlike the Merc With the Mouth, Zootopia isn't expected to reign supreme for a third week in a row. According to the projections at Pro.BoxOffice.com, The Divergent Series: Allegiant should come out on top in its first weekend in theaters. But perhaps not by a strong margin.

After dethroning 20th Century Fox's Deadpool at the box office last weekend, Disney's Zootopia was easily expected to remain on top during its second frame in theaters. The animated comedy faced Paramount's low-budget thriller 10 Cloverfield Lane, Sony's R-rated comedy The Brothers Grimsby, Focus Features' historical drama The Young Messiah and Lionsgate's The Perfect Match, none of which were expected to take down Zootopia. Box Office Mojo reports that Zootopia did in fact come out on top for the second weekend in a row, earning a healthy $50 million.
Zootopia only dropped an impressive 33.4% in its second weekend, with its current domestic tally at $142.6 million and an international total of $288.7 million for a global take of $431.3 million. The movie is a huge hit with critics, scoring a 99% "Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and Zootopia should do well with repeat viewing. Zootopia earned a healthy $13,065 per-screen average, with the movie playing in 3,827 theaters.

Disney's Zootopia managed to dethrone 20th Century Fox's Deadpool at the box office last weekend, by setting a few records of its own. It topped Dr. Seuss' the Lorax for the highest animated movie opening in March, and became the biggest debut ever for Walt Disney Animation Studios. This weekend, it will go up against four wildly different newcomers, Paramount's low-budget thriller 10 Cloverfield Lane, Sony's R-rated comedy The Brothers Grimsby, Focus Features' historical drama The Young Messiah and Lionsgate's The Perfect Match, none of which are expected to best Zootopia, according to the projections at Pro.BoxOffice.com
Zootopia is expected to drop roughly 50% this weekend, taking in a projected $37.5 million, but since animated movies have tendencies to drop less from week to week, it's possible it could debut just north of $40 million. After all, the movie is a huge hit with critics, scoring a 99% "Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes,...

While it has dominated its competition over the past three weeks, its reign came to an end this weekend, according to the estimates at Box Office Mojo. The superhero adaptation will be going up against three newcomers, Disney's Zootopia, Focus Features London Has Fallen and Paramount's Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. As expected, Zootopia came out on top with a whopping $73.7 million, the biggest opening ever for Walt Disney Animation Studios.
Zootopia's $73.7 million mark bested the $70.2 million debut of Dr. Seuss' the Lorax, for the biggest animated opening weekend in March.

One of the most interesting things about Walt Disney Feature Animation is the way it has evolved over the course of its history from Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs to today. There are such distinct eras in its development, such major shifts in creative energy, such giant peaks and valleys, that even the worst moments in its history are worth study for animation fans. I wish Disney would embrace their entire history and not just their hits, because there is so much to learn from films like Song Of The South or The Black Cauldron. Right now, though, they have hit a stride that is admirable, and Zootopia is another triumph for the current version of the studio following films like Tangled, Wreck-It Ralph, Frozen, and Big Hero 6. First and foremost, Zootopia is a reminder of just how beautiful animated films can be. Holy cow, this thing is almost hallucinatory.

Bridge of Sloths, Steve Paws, Mad Yax: Furry Road; In today’s latest round of parody posters for Zootopia, Disney’s anticipated animation presents this year’s Oscar contenders with a stylish twist.
Designed as a one-two punch to channel the excitement of this weekend’s 88th Academy Awards and, of course, the actual release of Byron Howard and Rich Moore’s feature on March 4, the gallery of images are a wonderful and timely riff on those films considered to represent cinema’s purple patch through 2015 and early 2016.
As for Zootopia, if the end product proves just as good as the House of Mouse’s marketing campaign, then we’re in for a treat. Centering on Ginnifer Goodwin’s Judy Hopps and Jason Bateman’s cunning scam artist Nick Wild, the animated romp is rooted in bright and colorful mammal metropolis completely devoid of humans.

It's doubtful that the new Disney animated comedy Zootopia will bring the same fevered devotion and love as fans have for the studio's 2013 blockbuster Frozen. But that doesn't mean the animators can't have a little fun. They've decided to hide a cool Frozen Easter egg away in this animal-lovers paradise. And we have a new image that shows off this cool treat in all it's glory.
Disney has a long and storied history when it comes to scattering Easter eggs throughout any of their animated movies. And it appears that Zootopia is ready to give Frozen a big shout out. And no, we're not talking about the fact that Kristen Bell, who voices Anna in Frozen, also returns to voice a three-toed sloth in this latest animated adventure.

The modern mammal metropolis of Zootopia is a city like no other. Comprised of habitat neighborhoods like ritzy Sahara Square and frigid Tundratown, it’s a melting pot where animals from every environment live together—a place where no matter what you are, from the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anything. But when rookie Officer Judy Hopps (voice of Ginnifer Goodwin) arrives, she discovers that being the first bunny on a police force of big, tough animals isn’t so easy.

In little under a month’s time, Disney will invite moviegoers into an entirely new and modernised animal kingdom for Zootopia, and Byron Howard and Rich Moore’s feature is bursting at the seems with personality.
Case in point: Cheetah Officer Clawhauser, who reports for duty in one of two new clips today, while the second has Ginnifer Goodwin’s Judy Hopps tower over Little Rodentia.
As a matter of fact, Goodwin’s lawful bunny is one of the two core characters anchoring Disney’s animation, partnering with Jason Bateman’s cunning scam artist Nick Wild to prove her worth to the local precinct. Governed by Idris Elba’s no-nonsense Chief Bogo, the police force of Zootopia is comprised of animals of all shapes and sizes – elephants included – and it’s a cast we can hardly wait to learn more about in a few weeks’ time.

In the build up to its March debut, Disney Animation has been adopting a less-is-more approach with Byron Howard and Rich Moore’s Zootopia - a strategy exemplified by last month’s sloth-centric trailer lingering on a single scene to brilliant effect.
That’s not something you see too often, either, with movie trailers hailing from all genres often favoring a rat-a-tat pace that leaves the viewer teetering on the edge of sensory overload. But today, the House of Mouse continues to hit all the right notes in anticipation of Zootopia‘s arrival, with a new clip that features Idris Elba’s no-nonsense Chief Bogo addressing the literal elephant in the room.
Taking the odd-couple-solves-crime formula and situating it in a lush anthropomorphic kingdom, Disney’s new IP largely centers on the dynamic between Jason Bateman’s Nick Wild and Ginnifer Goodwin’s officer Judy Hopps. It’s the latter...
