Zootopia 2 Trailer Unleashes New Mystery, New Characters, and a Bigger, Wilder City
Mark your calendars! Walt Disney Animation Studios has officially released the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated Zootopia 2, which is set to hit cinemas worldwide on November 27, 2025.
The sequel to the 2016 Oscar®-winning blockbuster brings back fan-favorite characters Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, but this time, the stakes are higher—and the city of Zootopia has grown even more unpredictable.
A Snake in the City: Enter Gary De’Snake
The biggest surprise from the teaser? A new slithering character, Gary De’Snake, voiced by Academy Award® winner Ke Huy Quan. Described as mysterious and game-changing, this pit viper with a secret agenda shakes the very core of the animal metropolis.
His arrival sparks a major disruption in Zootopia, pulling Judy and Nick into a brand-new, high-stakes investigation.
Together, the iconic duo embarks on a journey across previously unseen territories—from swamplands filled with semi-aquatic mammals to desert dunes teeming with new dangers. Along the way, their friendship and detective skills are tested like never before.
Expanding the World of Zootopia
Director Jared Bush, who also penned the screenplay, promises a more expansive, imaginative adventure. “We’re taking audiences to corners of Zootopia they’ve never seen,” Bush said. “Whether it’s marshlands, deserts, or deep urban layers, this story is about discovering new truths—about the world and about yourself.”
Fellow director Byron Howard adds that the sequel maintains the humor and heart fans loved in the original, while introducing a bolder, deeper storyline.
The goal? A film that resonates with longtime fans and newcomers alike.
New Music from Zootopia’s Own LEMEEENS
The trailer is also packed with Zootopian flair—especially the original song “ZUTU” by the lemming techno group LEMEEENS. Known for opening for the pop sensation Gazelle (voiced again by Shakira), the lemmings bring their signature energy to the sequel.
Expect Zootopia 2 to be filled with upbeat tracks and infectious rhythms that capture the spirit of the city.
Familiar Faces and Fresh Voices
Alongside Ginnifer Goodwin as Judy Hopps and Jason Bateman as Nick Wilde, the sequel introduces a talented ensemble voice cast, including:
- Ke Huy Quan as Gary De’Snake
- Shakira reprising her role as Gazelle
- Fortune Feimster and Quinta Brunson in yet-to-be-revealed roles
Together, this voice lineup promises to deliver humor, emotion, and lots of animal antics.
