Move over, local blockbusters! Disney's Zootopia 2 just became the first imported film to crack 100 million admissions in the Chinese mainland, proving animated sequels still have serious claws at the box office. 🦊🔥
With 4 billion yuan ($570M) earned domestically and $1.465 billion globally, this animal-packed adventure now ranks among China's top 12 highest-grossing films ever. Maoyan Pro data shows it's only the seventh film in history to hit the 100M admissions milestone here.
Disney announced the film will keep charming audiences through January 25, 2026 – perfect timing for Lunar New Year family outings! 🧧 Meanwhile, fans are snapping up limited-edition merch faster than Flash the sloth can… well, do anything. From blind-box figurines to collab sneakers, the Zootopia economy is booming 🛍️💸.
This success story shows Hollywood hits can still thrive in China's competitive market when they deliver fresh storytelling and merch-worthy characters. Could this spark a new wave of cross-Pacific creative partnerships? 🌏✨
