Here are some of our favorite parts of the Zootopia press conference:
Great Characters We Get To See Again
It was more than the main characters and story. Director Josie Trinidad shared: “It was difficult enough to craft that main story. The original Zootopia evolved so much. But we knew these were great characters that you would want to see again. And that’s when we knew how amazing these this world was, because there was a wealth of material that you wanted to explore.”
Beyond Hobbs and Nick
In Zootopia+ we get a mix of characters we know and love plus new ones. Josie Trinidad elaborated for us: “Zootopia’s like New York City where everyone has a story. And you really wanna delve into each character. I mean, there are so many. It was like, we have to have Mr. Big. We have to have Bonnie and Stu. We have to have Duke Weaselton. We have to have Tru Tru. And of course, everyone’s favorite sloth. It was hard to narrow down, because you kind of discovered that there were other characters, that you [think], “Oh, what if we can add this character and that animal?” But we had to pick and choose.”
