Disney’s ‘Zootopia 2’ Nets $272 Million in Big China Debut

Walt Disney Co.’s Zootopia 2 pulled in $272 million to claim China’s second-biggest opening ever for a foreign film, boosting the US studio in a key market.

The movie about a rabbit cop and her fox partner marked the biggest opening for an international film in the country since Avengers: Endgame, Disney said. Ticketing platform Maoyan projects Zootopia 2’s local take could reach 4.26 billion yuan ($600 million) — potentially putting it on par with Endgame, which remains the highest-grossing foreign film in the world’s second-largest movie market.
