Disney’s Zootopia 2 Becomes Third Movie of 2025 to Make Over $1 Billion at the Box Office



Disney’s animated blockbuster Zootopia 2 has overtaken the live-action Lilo & Stitch movie to become the highest-grossing Hollywood release of 2025 and just the third film to make over $1 billion at the global box office.

After three weekends, Zootopia 2 has now made $1.13 billion worldwide, with the majority of that money made internationally (specifically, in China). The domestic haul is now up to $259 million, and the international total is at an incredible $877.7 million. Lilo & Stitch ended its theatrical run earlier this year with $1.03 billion worldwide. But Zootopia 2 still has some way to go before it catches up with the biggest movie of 2025, Ne Zha 2, which made an eye-watering $1.9 billion theatrically. Disney has now had five billion-dollar releases since 2013: Frozen; Frozen 2; Moana 2; Zootopia; and Zootopia 2.

IGN’s Zootopia 2 review returned an 8/10. We said: “Zootopia 2 sends ZPD’s first ever bunny-fox detective duo back onto the case of some of the weightiest issues we face as a society, and they brought all the animal puns with them.”

Meanwhile, undeterred by a mauling from critics, Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 has made $174 million after two weekends in theaters. While the sequel seems unlikely to match its predecessor’s $292 million global box office haul back in 2023, it’s a clear hit for Blumhouse, which, according to Variety, spent just $36 million on the horror film. IGN’s Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 review returned a 3/10. We said: “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 gives sequels, video game adaptations, and gateway horror movies a bad name.”

Wicked: For Good is now on $468 million globally (it looks like ending its theatrical run a decent way behind 2024’s Wicked, which hit an impressive $758 million globally), Now You See Me, Now You Don’t is on $214 million, and The Running Man is up to $68 million (more here on The Running Man’s box office stumble). And finally, James L. Brooks’ Ella McKay made just $2.1 million domestically during its opening weekend.

As the year nears its end, one final blockbuster is set to hit theaters: James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash. It’s another crucial release for Disney, which is reportedly releasing four different Avengers: Doomsday trailers to push fans into seeing it multiple times at theaters.
