Although Zootopia (2016) enjoyed a stellar box office run and crossed the $1 billion mark worldwide, few would have imagined that Zootopia 2 (2025) would outgross it by such a huge margin. With a current global total of $1.711 billion, the Disney sequel now ranks as the 9th highest-grossing film of all time worldwide and the second-highest-grossing title of 2025 worldwide, trailing only behind Ne Zha 2’s $2.260 billion total.

At the domestic box office, the animated blockbuster has already earned $394.9 million and is expected to cross the $400 million milestone this weekend. At the same time, it is also on track to surpass Frozen’s $400.1 million haul, becoming the 12th highest-grossing animated film of all time in North America. If the film maintains its current momentum, it could potentially finish its North American run at around $420 million, as per trade analyst Luiz Fernando.

As of now, Zootopia 2 sits at No. 3 among the highest-grossing films of 2025 in North America, as per Box Office Mojo. It needs to earn less than $30 million to surpass Lilo & Stitch and reach the No. 2 position domestically.

Zootopia 2 vs. Lilo & Stitch – Box Office Comparison

Let’s take a look at how Zootopia 2 stacks up against Lilo & Stitch at the box office, based on data from Box Office Mojo.

Zootopia 2 – Box Office Summary

North America: $394.9 million
International: $1.316 billion
Worldwide: $1.711 billion

Lilo & Stitch – Box Office Summary

North America: $423.8 million
International: $614.2 million
Worldwide: $1.038 billion

Based on the above numbers, Zootopia 2 is currently trailing Lilo & Stitch by approximately $28.9 million at the North American box office. However, with momentum still on its side, the Disney sequel could close the gap and potentially overtake Lilo & Stitch before its theatrical run ends. The final outcome should become clear over the coming weeks.
