Zootopia 2 has been a huge box office success for Disney, and the Mouse House has now officially announced that the animated sequel has passed (or will today) the $1 billion mark at the global box office after only 17 days in theaters.
The stats haven't updated yet, but so far, the film has taken in $232.7 million domestically and a staggering $753.4 million overseas.
The family-friendly adventure has now become the second Motion Picture Association (MPA) $1 billion title of 2025 after Disney’s Lilo & Stitch, and will hit the milestone in the shortest amount of time among all animated MPA releases and all PG-rated films.
“Everyone at Disney Animation put their heart, soul and passion into this film to tell a story full of joy, imagination, and incredible thoughtfulness,” said Jared Bush, Chief Creative Officer, Walt Disney Animation Studios. “This milestone means the world to us, because more than anything, it means audiences are coming to theaters for a shared experience of watching this movie on the big screen, everyone together, from all walks of life around the world – and that is a Zootopia dream come true.”
Zootopia 2 now becomes the third movie of 2025 to pass $1 billion after Lilo and Stitch and Ne Zha 2.
The movie has also broken several records in China, becoming the country’s highest animated opening ever for a non-local title, and the highest-grossing non-local animated film of all time after just five days on release.
Disney hasn't announced plans for a third Zootopia movie yet, but you can bet it'll happen.
