The D23 Expo gave us a first look at the Zootopia 2 logo, which appears on a cityscape display at the event.
The annual expo will be showing off fresh Disney goodies of all kinds, and that will include plenty of anticipated sequels to its biggest properties.
We knew Zootopia 2 was on the way, but there’s been no real information on what it will be about. This display offers a tease for fresh information or even a first look at the sequel to the 2016 animated hit.
Zootopia 2 display offers glimpse of sequel
The Zootopia 2 display shows the logo, which has a swishy tail on the number 2. The display appears to be of a seafront town, complete with figurines of the protagonists and a walrus plumber.
Earlier this year, Disney stamped a release date on Zootopia 2. They set the exact date of November 26, 2025. This came as stablemates Toy Story 5 and Frozen 3 got a vaguer 2026 release window.
The original Zootopia was released in 2016 and won Best Animated Feature at the Academy Awards. It also managed to grab $1.025 billion at the box office on a budget of $150 million, which is pretty impressive given that it was an original IP.
Determined to prove herself, Officer Judy Hopps, the first bunny on Zootopia’s police force, jumps at the chance to crack her first case – even if it means partnering with scam-artist fox Nick Wilde to solve the mystery.
It was directed by Byron Howard (Tangled, Encanto) and Rich Moore (Wreck-It Ralph, Ralph breaks the Internet). It stars Jason Bateman (Juno, Game Night), Ginnifer Goodwin (Walk the Line, Big Love), Idris Elba (Thor, The Suicide Squad), Jenny Slate (Venom, The Lorax), Bonnie Hunt 9Cars, Monsters Inc.), and J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man, Whiplash).
