Released in 2016, Zootopia earned more than $1 billion worldwide and is China’s highest-grossing imported animated feature film ever

(Bloomberg) — Walt Disney Co. is set to open the world’s first Zootopia land at Shanghai Disneyland Resort as the entertainment giant expands its global theme park footprint and taps into surging demand in China for domestic travel.

The new attraction, based on the popular animated comedy-adventure of the same name, will open on Dec. 20 and feature iconic landmarks from the film and themed restaurants. One of the top draw cards is the ‘Hot Pursuit’ ride, which sees visitors join Officer Judy Hopps and her partner, Nick Wilde, on a police chase to track down kidnapped pop star Gazelle.
