Zootopia 2 is still going strong at the box office and the latest feature film for the House of Mouse has broken a major box office record for Walt Disney Animation, despite the fact that it's impressive figures are still rising.
The film has now climbed to an impressive $1.46 billion worldwide, buoyed by a late holiday-season surge despite recently kicking off its sixth week in release.
Domestically, the sequel has earned $333.2 million in the U.S. and Canada, while international markets have contributed a massive $1.13 billion to its total.
China, in particular, has played a pivotal role in the film’s success, accounting for a staggering $563.1 million alone.
That performance has propelled Zootopia 2 past the previous Walt Disney Animation Studios record-holder, Frozen 2, which topped out at $1.45 billion globally.
However, it should be noted that Disney as a whole, has another award-winning animation studio in Pixar.
The studio's Inside Out 2 grossed $1.698 billion back in 2024 but most box office analysts are in agreement that Zootopia 2 is likely to also surpass this total.
With such a monumental box office total (which is still climbing) and with director Jared Bush now calling the shots at Walt Disney Animation Studios as its new Chief creative officer, reports indicate that the wait for Zootopia 3 should be much, much shorter.
It took nine years for the Zootopia sequel to hit theaters in late-2025 but reports indicated that Disney is looking to release Zootopia 3 in roughly 5-6 years.
