Zootopia 2 Trailer: Judy & Nick Return for Therapy, Chaos, and a Snake Named Gary

The Zootopia 2 trailer is finally here, and it’s everything fans hoped for—and more. Walt Disney Animation Studios has officially unveiled the long-awaited sequel to its 2016 Oscar-winning hit Zootopia, and it’s packed with action, laughs, and emotional drama.

Directed by Jared Bush and Byron Howard, and produced by Yvett Merino, Zootopia 2 is set to premiere in theatres on November 26, 2025, almost a decade after the original became a global phenomenon.

Zootopia 2 Trailer Breakdown

The Zootopia 2 trailer opens on a surprising note—our beloved crime-fighting duo, Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman), are struggling to see eye to eye. Chief Bogo (voiced by Idris Elba) sends them to a Partners in Crisis counseling program led by a calm but firm therapist, Dr. Fuzzby (voiced by Quinta Brunson).

But just as they start to unpack their issues, a new threat emerges in the form of a venomous reptile named Gary De’Snake (voiced by Ke Huy Quan). The snake’s arrival in the all-mammal city of Zootopia throws everything into chaos, setting Judy and Nick on another wild and dangerous case.
