(L-R) Directors Rich Moore and Byron Howard and producer Clark Spencer of ZOOTOPIA took part today in “Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios: The Upcoming Films” presentation at Disney’s D23 EXPO 2015 in Anaheim, Calif.
Disney’s D23 Expo is going on now and yesterday during the Animation Presentation took place before a sold-out crowd of fanatic Disney lovers. Dressed in costumes and waiting in lines for hours to attend the bi-annual event. The crowd was rewarded for their persistence with a whirlwind of celebrities, directors, and producers sharing surprises about the films they’ve been working on.
ZOOTOPIA – Pictured (L-R): Nick Wilde, Judy Hopps. “It’s a nod to the great Disney animated animal films we all grew up with, but with a funny, contemporary twist,” said director Rich Moore (“Wreck-It Ralph,” “The Simpsons”). “Our artists and animators did tons of research to integrate true animal behaviors into each of our characters. The world of Zootopia is fantastic, infused with international flavor that will be relatable to everyone.” ©2015 Disney. All Rights Reserved.
The first film to be highlighted was ZOOTOPIA. Directors Byron Howard and Rich Moore and producer Clark Spencer were on hand to share an extended sneak peek into the movie. The plot is centered around a fast-talking fox who’s wrongfully accused of a crime, so he heads out on the lam. He’s chased by the city’s top cop, a rabbit who’s hot on his trail until she too becomes a target, and these natural enemies have to team up to clear their names.
Actress Ginnifer Goodwin of ZOOTOPIA took part today in “Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios: The Upcoming Films” presentation at Disney’s D23 EXPO 2015 in Anaheim, Calif.
The film stars the voice of Jason Bateman as the fox, Nick Wild and Ginnifer Goodwin (Once Upon a Time) as Judy Hopps, the self-riotous rabbit.
