Zootopia 2 dominated the Thanksgiving holiday, pushing Wicked: For Good down to second place.
Zootopia 2 took in $98.8 million for the regular three-day weekend and $158 million total domestically, opening on Wednesday last week. The three-day opening was $23.8 million higher than the first Zootopia‘s opening back in 2016, and it’s the third-best opening ever for Walt Disney Animation Studios behind Moana 2 and Frozen 2. It was also the second-best 5-day Thanksgiving opening ever, behind Moana 2. Worldwide, the movie has already made $559.5 million, and it’s far outpacing the first movie, which made just over $1 billion, so it seems like a relatively easy feat for Zootopia 2 to exceed that. The movie got an A CinemaScore, which should mean strong word of mouth over the next few weeks, but we’ll have to see what kind of drop it has this coming weekend. It’s currently the 10th-highest-grossing film worldwide of 2025.
Wicked: For Good dropped to second place but still made another $61.7 million, bringing its domestic total to $269.2 million and its worldwide total to $390.9 million. It’s still outpacing the first Wicked domestically. It’s currently 19th worldwide for 2025 and 13th domestically.
Now You See Me: Now You Don’t took third place with $6.9 million, only dropping 23% from last weekend. It now has $49.6 million domestically and $159 million worldwide.
Predator: Badlands and The Running Man rounded out the top 5. Predator: Badlands is currently at $174.3 million worldwide, and The Running Man is at $60.5 million.
Eternity opened outside the top 5 in sixth place with $3.1 million for the three-day weekend and $5.2 million total domestically. Further down the list, we shockingly got some numbers for the limited release of Wake Up Dead Man from Netflix, which played in 600 theaters and has a domestic total of $2.5 million, with $1.5 million for the three-day weekend. Potential Oscar contender Hamnet took eighth place with just under $1 million, $932,278 in 119 theaters.
Zootopia 2 had the best per-theater average of the weekend with $24,700 in each of the 4,000 theaters it played in.
