I wasn't entirely sure what to think of ZOOTOPIA when the project was first announced, it seemed like just another of Disney's star-studded affairs set in a world of talking animals; but, after guffawing my way through that wonderful sloth teaser, they may have won me over. ZOOTOPIA takes place in the animal city of Zootopia and follows Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman) and Officer Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin) as they form an unlikely partnership in their search for missing predator citizens. Disney has released two brand-new clips from ZOOTOPIA, both centering on the adorable Officer Jude Hopps.

Director Byron Howard, who shares that credit with Rich Moore and Jared Bush, wanted to see what a modern animal city would look like had it been designed by animals, and you can catch a glimpse of that idea in the second clip in which Officer Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin) chases down Duke Weaselton (Alan Tudyk).
A synopsis of ZOOTOPIA:
In the animal city of Zootopia, a fast-talking fox who's trying to make it big goes on the run when he's framed for a crime he didn't commit. Zootopia's top cop, a self-righteous rabbit, is hot on his tail, but when both become targets of a conspiracy, they're forced to team up and discover even natural enemies can become best friends.
ZOOTOPIA is set for a March 4, 2016 release.
