A new trailer and poster for Walt Disney Animation Studios’ upcoming animated adventure “Zootopia 2” launch today and feature an all-new original song, “Zoo,” performed by Shakira, who returns as the voice of Zootopia’s biggest pop star, Gazelle.
In the trailer, audiences get a first look at brand-new characters and a hidden reptile population when rookie cops Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman) come face-to-face with a mysterious pit viper, Gary De’Snake (voice of Academy Award®-winner Ke Huy Quan). The film is directed by the Oscar®-winning team of Disney Animation chief creative officer Jared Bush and Byron Howard and produced by Yvett Merino.
“Zoo” music and lyrics are written by Ed Sheeran, Blake Slatkin, and Shakira. The song is produced by Blake Slatkin, Alex (A.C.) Castillo, Shakira, and Ed Sheeran.
