Zootopia 2’s box office collection in China on Saturday
According to Luiz Fernando’s report, Zootopia 2 has already collected $87.3 million over 356k screenings in China today, Saturday. It has already collected $94 million in three days at the box office in China. The film is expected to finish with a collection between $115 million and $130 million on Saturday. The film sold 40% of its tickets during pre-sales, and 60% were bought over the counter. It means the sequel would become the highest-grossing single-day film in Hollywood history in any market worldwide. The record is held by Avengers: Endgame‘s $107.2 million opening day in China and its $97.5 million opening day in North America.
It is also expected to beat Ne Zha 2‘s $112.3 million first Sunday as the highest-grossing day for any animation in any market. It has already recorded $20 million in pre-sales for Sunday across a record 364k screenings confirmed to play the movie.

Set to beat Avengers: Infinity War’s debut at the box office in China
Zootopia 2 is projected to collect more than $209 million after today, and therefore it will surpass Avengers: Infinity War‘s $200.5 million as the second-biggest opening ever recorded in China. It is targeting a $185 million to $220 million three-day opening weekend and a $240 million to $275 million five-day opening weekend. Unfortunately, it will not be able to beat Avengers: Endgame’s five-day opening weekend of $330.5 million at the box office in China in 2019. The animated sequel will surely beat Endgame’s $278 million three-day weekend as the highest-grossing 3-day debut of all time for Hollywood in China.
