Brought to life at Vancouver’s Disney studio, ZOOTOPIA 2 is a history-making phenomenon with over $1 Billion in ticket sales worldwide as of Dec 8/25 — the best opening weekend in animation history — and now a GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINEE for Best Animated Feature.
China played a significant role in this success. The film opened to $272 million USD in the Chinese market, which marks one of the largest openings ever for a Hollywood release in the region. It also showed strong results in other key international territories, including France, South Korea and Mexico.
