Plucky bunny cop Judy Hopps and her erstwhile foil, now partner, fox Nick Wilde got some prime screen time during Disney’s CinemaCon presentation today as a pair of clips were shown from Zootopia 2. The sequel to 2016’s Oscar-winning $1B+ grosser is due for release in the Thanksgiving corridor this year.
The first movie followed Judy (Ginnifer Goodwin) as a rookie cop who teams up with con artist Nick (Jason Bateman) to uncover a conspiracy in a titular metropolis of anthropomorphic animals.
New cast member Ke Huy Quan was on hand to introduce the fresh Zootopia 2 footage. He joins the follow-up as a snake named Gary, the impetus for Judy and Nick’s next case.
This portion of the show was introduced in voice-over by Bateman as Nick, who referred to CinemaCon as “ZinemaCon, Celebrating the Animal Experience” before Quan took the stage.

Quan called Gary “Zootopia’s first snake” and winked, “Like me, he is terrifying and villainous. … Gary kicks off the whole mystery when he turns up and panics the town.” Judy and Nick take on the case of tracking Gary down, but they are “going through a rough patch,” per Oscar winner Quan, and reluctantly are subjected to partners-counseling sessions with a “therapy animal” aka Dr Fuzzby (voiced by newly announced Quinta Brunson).
In the first clip shown, the group-therapy meeting has a number of curiously paired partners — think elephant and mouse — but Judy is in denial that she and Nick have any issues. “We have been partners for one week and we are not dysfunctional at all. … Us being here seems like a misunderstanding,” she says as she nervously thumps her foot. Dr. Fuzzby in turn notes the “disconnected affectation of her emotionally insecure partner.”

In the second clip shown today, we see Judy and Nick set off to a swamp area where the snake has been sighted and where they meet with a beaver “who has her own way of communicating.”
Zootopia 2 is directed and written by Byron Howard and Jared Bush, who also were on the original. That film was a global phenomenon, grossing $1.026B and scooping the Best Animated Feature Academy Award.
