How Much Has Zootopia 2 Made? Global Box Office Breakdown

Disney’s animated sequel Zootopia 2 has officially become a box office juggernaut, grossing an astounding $1.137 billion worldwide as of mid-December 2025. The film has not only surpassed the lifetime earnings of the original Zootopia but also set a new benchmark as the fastest Hollywood animated film to cross the $1 billion mark, achieving the feat in just 17 days.

• Total Worldwide Gross: $1.137 billion
• International Earnings: $877.7 million
• China Box Office: Over $500 million
• Domestic (U.S.) Gross: $259.3 million (and climbing)

The film’s massive success is fueled by its record-breaking performance in China, where it has become one of the top-grossing animated releases of all time. This is particularly notable given the country’s recent restrictions on U.S. theatrical releases, making Zootopia 2’s dominance a standout achievement.

Domestically, the film has reclaimed the No. 1 spot at the box office in its third weekend, pulling in $26.3 million and continuing to challenge other 2025 hits like The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

Why It Matters

Zootopia 2’s success is more than just a financial milestone—it’s a cultural moment. The film’s blend of sharp social commentary, vibrant animation, and beloved characters like Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde has resonated with audiences of all ages. Its central mystery, involving a cunning reptilian antagonist, adds a fresh twist to the franchise’s world of anthropomorphic intrigue.

This box office triumph also signals a resurgence of family-friendly animated films in a market that has recently been dominated by superhero fare and adult-oriented dramas. In fact, Zootopia 2 is currently the highest-grossing Hollywood film of 2025, outpacing even the live-action Lilo & Stitch remake.

What’s Next for Zootopia 2?

With the holiday season still ahead and international markets continuing to perform strongly, Zootopia 2 is poised to climb even higher in the ranks of the highest-grossing animated films of all time. It has already surpassed Oppenheimer to enter the top 60 global earners and could soon challenge the likes of Frozen II and Incredibles 2 if its momentum holds.

📈 Whether you’re a fan of the original or just tracking box office milestones, Zootopia 2 is the animated hit of the year—and it’s not done yet.
