Disney’s ‘Zootopia 2’ Expected Back Atop Weekend Box Office After ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s 2’ Detour
December 12, 2025
Walt Disney Animation’s Zootopia 2 is projected return atop the weekend box office in its third weekend of release with $28.5 million in estimated North American ticket sales through Dec. 14, according to estimates from BoxOfficeReport.com. The tally is projected to push Zootopia 2 past the $1 billion global box office.
The movie briefly dropped to No. 2 last weekend, replaced by Universal’s Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, which is projected to finish runner-up this weekend with an estimated 69% revenue drop to $20 million.
Freddy’s 2 could still have a better second weekend box office than the 2023 original, which was released concurrently on the Peacock streaming service.
“Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 should experience a sharp [box office] decline due to the immense rush-out of the film’s built-in fanbase last weekend,” analyst Daniel Garris wrote in a post.
Rounding out the weekend podium is expected to be Universal’s musical Wicked: For Good, which saw a near 72% freefall in tickets sold in its third weekend (ended Dec. 7). The revenue decline should stabilize somewhat this weekend to $8 million in revenue, upping the movie’s domestic gross past $311 million.
The weekend also features three new releases led by 20th Century Studios’ Ella McCay, Universal’s 25th Anniversary re-release of Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Cineverse/Iconic Events Releasing’s reboot of Silent Night, Deadly Night. BoxOfficeReport is predicting weekend grosses of $3.1 million for Ella McCay, $2.6 million for How the Grinch Stole Christmas and $2.1 million for Silent Night, Deadly Night, respectively.
