Zootopia 2 – First‐Look Preview of Disney’s Thanksgiving 2025 Blockbuster

The moment Walt Disney Animation Studios told shareholders that Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde would return for a second adventure, the announcement came with three hard facts—no more, no less. To start, Disney has pinned the release squarely on 26 November 2025—its coveted Thanksgiving weekend slot. Second, Jared Bush, who helped write and co‐direct the 2016 original, is back in the director’s chair and shares screenplay credit. Third, Disney confirms that longtime leads Ginnifer Goodwin and Jason Bateman will return, while Academy Award–winner Ke Huy Quan and comedian Fortune Feimster have also signed on in yet-to-be-revealed roles. Those points appear in Disney’s public movie portal, the D23 on-stage transcript, and the spring investor handout—everything else, including plot specifics, remains behind the studio gate.

Brad Pitt Takes the Wheel in “F1: The Movie”

Formula One may have conquered streaming thanks to Drive to Survive, but it has never before been the subject of a big-budget narrative film powered by Apple Original Films, Jerry Bruckheimer, Plan B, and seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton. That changes next summer when director Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) launches F1: The Movie, a production that melds real-track authenticity with blockbuster storytelling.

How to Train Your Dragon

DreamWorks slipped its newest Dragon adventure into theaters on 13 June 2025, greeting longtime fans with a familiar whoosh of wings and a few welcome surprises. Although Dean DeBlois directs again, this entry is the franchise’s first live-action film—real actors on practical sets, with photoreal CGI dragons—rather than another animated sequel. The studio trusts its artists to push the medium in a different direction instead of trading it for fully photoreal seams and pixels.

Elio

Elio wasn’t even supposed to anchor Pixar’s June lineup. Three distinct calendar adjustments later, the movie landed its flag on June 20, 2025 causing rumors that the project was in jeopardy. It is possible to forget about those concerns. Adrian Molina—best known for co-writing Coco—guides the movie with a light step and a huge heart, serving up a space adventure that plays like The Iron Giant retold by the kid who’s always sketching in the back row. Eleven-year-old Elio Solis, the protagonist voiced by first-time actor Yonas Kibreab and whose halting, crackling performance struck just the right amount of the jittery truth of the boy. He resides at a military research complex, since his mother Major Olga Solis (Zoe Saldaña) is the director of a top secret communications project. One slow afternoon, Elio answers a garbled signal, is yanked through a wormhole, and crash-lands in the Communiverse—a cosmic town hall crowded with beings that look like marine life reimagined by modern sculptors. Because he picked up the call, the aliens assume he’s Earth’s ambassador.

A Minecraft Movie

When a sandbox as boundless as Minecraft finally reaches theaters, the real test isn’t whether the Overworld looks cinematic—it’s whether the game’s spirit of curiosity survives the trip. Director Jared Hess, working from a screenplay refined by Chris Bowman, Hubbel Palmer, and Allison Schroeder, answers with a confident yes. Instead of cramming the plot with inside jokes for Redstone veterans, Hess places human connection at the center, letting newcomers enjoy the ride without feeling gate-kept by lore. The result is a brisk, bright adventure that speaks to kids discovering the game today and to veterans who once spent weekends perfecting piston doors.

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning lands with the weight of franchise history on its shoulders, flaunting a May 22 2025 theatrical release that Paramount marketed as Ethan Hunt’s swan song. Yet the film immediately signals that “final” may be more marketing hook than narrative promise; its opening half hour is a sprawling recap of seven prior chapters, stitched together with voice-overs, news montages, and solemn proclamations about Hunt’s legend. That back-patting prologue nearly stalls the train before it leaves the station, but once Christopher McQuarrie’s camera plunges below the Arctic ice and then rockets toward the stratosphere, the production remembers why audiences still watch these movies on the biggest screen in town.

Snow White

Disney’s new Snow White arrives more than eighty years after the 1937 classic and four years after the studio signaled a shift toward thoughtful remakes such as Cruella and The Little Mermaid. Directed by Marc Webb and produced by Marc Platt, it marks Disney’s first full live-action adaptation of its own 1937 feature. Rachel Zegler gets her role of the title character and Gal Gadot casts her shadow over Rachel as the Evil Queen and new new melodies by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul blend with the classic Frank Churchill tunes. With so many officially confirmed names attached, the production invites inevitable comparisons to its animated forebear yet carves out its own identity by framing the heroine’s journey around self-agency rather than passive hope.
