Zootopia 2 will arrive with a handful of popcorn buckets and other merchandise that fans can purchase. Some of Zootopia 2's secrets are starting to become public as the movie approaches its November 26, 2025, release date. This includes a new round of merchandising for Disney's next animated theatrical release, which should have fans itching to see what the company has in store.
Multiple theater chains shared their merchandise listings for popcorn buckets and other items inspired by Disney's Zootopia 2.
