2016 computer animated film by Walt Disney Animation Studios
POPULARITY
Disney'sZootopia 2 has been a huge success in the Chinese mainland, raking in more than 3.8 billion yuan ($539.69 million) at thebox office as of Sunday afternoon, making it the second-highest-grossing Hollywood film of all time in the mainland market—only beaten to the top spot by Avengers: Endgame. The movie's cumulative box office receipts in the Chinese mainland nearly double those for North America and account for nearly half its worldwide total, underscoring China's role as a major player in the global cinema landscape. With a vast and engaged audience base, the potential for growth is immense.迪士尼动画《疯狂动物城2》在中国大陆取得巨大成功,截至上周日下午票房已突破38亿元人民币(约合5.3969亿美元),成为该地区有史以来票房第二高的好莱坞电影——仅次于《复仇者联盟4:终局之战》。该片在大陆地区的累计票房几乎是北美票房的两倍,占全球票房近半数,彰显了中国在全球电影市场中的重要地位。中国凭借庞大且热情的观众群体,其增长潜力巨大。Zootopia 2's appeal to Chinese audiences was enhanced by Disney's engagement initiatives. Shanghai Disneyland's Zootopia-themed area, inspired by the first film, celebrated its second anniversary on Saturday. It is the world's only Zootopia-themed destination.《疯狂动物城2》对中国观众中的吸引力因迪士尼的互动推广活动而增强。全球唯一以动物城为主题的游乐园区上海迪士尼乐园的动物城主题园区——其设计灵感源自首部电影——于上周六迎来两周年庆典。Walt Disney Animation Studio also deliberately included Chinese cultural elements, such as characters representing the Chinese zodiac signs, in thesequel. One of the film's pivotal new characters is Gary De'Snake. Jared Bush, Disney Animation's chief creative officer, emphasized the character was introduced specifically to appeal to the Chinese audience: "We knew this was the Year of the Snake and we wanted the movie to come out the same year for sure." The story of protagonist Judy Hopps leaving her small town and finding success in the big city alsoresonates deeply with Chinese audiences at a time of rapid urbanization.华特迪士尼动画工作室还特意在续集中融入了中国文化元素,例如代表中国生肖的动物角色。影片新增的关键角色之一是名叫盖瑞的蛇。迪士尼动画首席创意官杰拉德·布什强调,这个角色正是为吸引中国观众而设计:“我们知道今年是蛇年,所以坚持要让电影在同一年上映。”主角朱迪·霍普斯离开小镇、在大城市取得成功的故事情节,也深深触动了正经历快速城市化进程的中国观众。Moreover, the adaptation of the film's script to accommodate Chinese cultural nuances and humor ensured that the story and its jokes got through to Mandarin-speaking audiences, which highlights the importance of cultural sensitivity and understanding.此外,电影剧本为适应中国文化特色和幽默风格所做的改编,确保了故事及其笑点能精准传达给普通话观众,这凸显了文化敏感度与理解力的重要性。The Chinese mainland market's irreplaceable contribution to Zootopia 2's global box office success is indicative of a broader trend where Hollywood films increasingly rely on international markets for their financial success. As noted by observers, China's massive consumer base and its openness to both domestic and imported films create a unique environment for cinematic success. The market's capability to nurture high-grossing films challenges the notion that it is turning away from Hollywood films. Instead, quality andcultural resonance continue to be the key factors determining whether films will be a hit or not with Chinese audiences.中国大陆市场对《疯狂动物城2》全球票房取得佳绩有着不可替代的贡献,揭示了好莱坞影片日益依赖国际市场实现商业成功的普遍趋势。正如观察人士所指出的,中国庞大的消费群体以及对国产与进口影片的开放态度,共同构筑了独特的电影成功环境。该市场培育高票房影片的能力,正挑战着“中国市场正疏远好莱坞影片”的论调。事实上,影片质量与文化共鸣度始终是中国观众决定影片成败的核心要素。As Hollywood looks to the future, the importance of understanding and engaging with the Chinese market cannot be overstated. The success of Zootopia 2 may chart the course ahead for future collaborations between Hollywood and Chinese filmmakers. By incorporating culturally relevant elements and engaging in meaningful localization, studios can create films that resonate with Chinese moviegoers, which will not only enhance their box office performance, but also foster cultural exchanges and understanding between the two countries.好莱坞展望未来之际,理解并开拓中国市场的重要性不言而喻。《疯狂动物城2》的成功或将为好莱坞与华语电影人的未来合作指明方向。通过融入文化共鸣元素并开展深度本土化,制片方能打造出深受中国观众喜爱的影片,这不仅能提升票房表现,更能促进两国间的文化交流与相互理解。Indeed, films such as Zootopia 2 can help bridge the emotional andperceptual gaps between the Chinese and American people, especially amid political and trade tensions. They serve as a medium for mutual understanding and appreciation of their different cultures. By showcasing shared values, such as friendship, perseverance and justice, these films highlight common human experiences that transcend national boundaries. Respect and acknowledgement of cultural diversity can also help foster a sense of inclusion and connection, thus reducing stereotypes and misconceptions that often fuel animosity.诚然,诸如《疯狂动物城2》这类影片有助于弥合中美民众在情感认知上的鸿沟,尤其在政治与贸易紧张局势下,它们成为促进彼此理解、欣赏不同文化的媒介。通过展现友谊、坚韧与正义等共同价值观,这些影片突显了超越国界的普世人性体验。尊重并认可文化多样性,还能促进包容感与联结感,从而减少那些常助长敌意的刻板印象与误解。In a world where political narratives often erect barriers between nations, cultural exchanges such as those facilitated by Zootopia 2 offer a powerful counterbalance, promoting understanding and collaboration.在一个政治叙事常在国家间筑起壁垒的世界里,《疯狂动物城2》所促成的文化交流提供了强有力的平衡力量,促进了理解与合作。China has become a critical market for cinematic success. Apart from Zootopia 2, Ne Zha 2, the domestic animated hit from the Spring Festival holiday, was also a global sensation. Its 15.4 billion yuan box office revenue is the highest gross ever for an animated film worldwide. This indicates China's massive consumer base remains capable of lifting films to heights unmatched anywhere else. And this is not only true of movies.中国已成为电影成功的关键市场,除了《疯狂动物城2》,春节档本土动画大片《哪吒之魔童降世》也引发全球轰动。《哪吒之魔童降世》154亿元的票房收入创下全球动画电影最高纪录,这表明中国庞大的消费群体仍能将电影推向无与伦比的高度。而这种现象不仅限于电影领域。Through thoughtful collaboration and cultural exchange, both China and the US can enrich their cinematic landscapes, creating a more interconnected and culturally aware audience.通过深思熟虑的合作与文化交流,中美两国都能丰富各自的电影景观,从而培养出更具联结意识和文化认知力的观众群体。box office票房sequeln./ˈsiː.kwəl/续集cultural resonancen./ˈrez.ən.əns/文化共鸣resonatev./ˈrez.ən.eɪt/使…产生共鸣perceptual gapsadj./pɚˈsep.tʃu.əl/认知鸿沟
Min 4: AVATAR 3: FUEGO Y CENIZA (3 estrellas) Avatar 3, dirigida por James Cameron y protagonizada de nuevo por Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang y Kate Winslet, se presenta como el estreno que llevábamos tiempo esperando para sentarnos a analizarlo en Estamos de Cine: un nuevo descenso a Pandora que promete ir más allá del deslumbramiento visual para adentrarse en zonas más incómodas y maduras del universo Avatar. Cameron amplía el mapa emocional y moral de la saga introduciendo nuevas culturas na'vi y un conflicto menos maniqueo, donde la épica convive con la culpa, la pérdida y la idea de que no toda resistencia es pura ni toda tecnología es el enemigo. Sin renunciar a su músculo técnico —pensado una vez más para la experiencia en sala—, Avatar 3 apunta a ser el capítulo que tensiona de verdad el relato, cuestiona a sus propios héroes y obliga al espectador a mirar Pandora no como un paraíso idealizado, sino como un mundo vivo, contradictorio y frágil, en el que cada elección deja cicatrices. Min 18: KEEPER (3 estrellas) Keeper, dirigida por Osgood Perkins y protagonizada por Tatiana Maslany (She-Hulk, Abogada Hulka; Orphan Black) y Rossif Sutherland, llega como uno de los títulos de terror más comentados de 2025, y el resultado es un film tan inquietante como polarizador: una experiencia que funciona mejor como estudio de atmósfera y miedo sutil que como narrativa sólida y cohesionada para Estamos de Cine. Min 23: VIDA PRIVADA (3 estrellas) Vida privada (Vie privée), dirigida por Rebecca Zlotowski y protagonizada por Jodie Foster en uno de los papeles más singulares de su carrera (interpretando a la prestigiosa psiquiatra Lilian Steiner), llega a las salas como una de las propuestas francófonas más originales de la temporada navideña. Thriller de investigación con aroma clásico que se enreda deliberadamente con elementos de comedia negra, drama psicológico y reflexión sobre la identidad profesional y personal. Min 26: EL EXTRANERO (3,5 estrellas) El extranjero, la nueva película dirigida por François Ozon y estrenada este viernes, es una adaptación audaz y cinematográfica del clásico existencialista de Albert Camus (L'Étranger), que analizamos en Estamos de Cine como una pieza que inquieta tanto por su fidelidad lírica al texto original como por su reinterpretación de sus temas más controvertidos para el presente. Ozon —conocido por su habilidad para explorar capas psicológicas y sociales en relatos aparentemente sencillos” rehúye una mera traducción literal y, en vez de ello, propone una lectura que enfatiza el carácter sensorial y la experiencia subjetiva del protagonista, Meursault (interpretado por Benjamin Voisin), un hombre cuya indiferencia ante la vida y la muerte se convierte en espejo de un mundo que no sólo no comprende sus emociones, sino que lo condena por su incapacidad para expresar las que se esperan de él. Min 33: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA: CON ALBERTO VÁZQUEZ (DECORADO) Con un flamante Premio Forqué bajo el brazo y con claras opciones de cara al Goya, el director de la película animada "Decorado", Alberto Vázquez nos confiesa por qué el aclamado cortometraje de animación "Padre e hija" ( 2000. Michael Dudok de Wit) es el título que marcó su amor por el cine y su apuesta por la animación para emocionar. Min 36: AGUSTÍN ALMODÓVAR NOS AVANZA LAS FECHAS CLAVE DE "AMARGA NAVIDAD" La conexión entre la productora El Deseo y Estamos de Cine sigue funcionando y, en el último momento, al límite de la hora, nuestra pisano Agustín Almodóvar nos sorprende con un audio en el que nos confirma y concreta algunas de las fechas clave que la productora maneja para el estreno del último y esperado trabajo de Pedro: "Amarga Navidad". Min 38: ESPECIAL BSO "ZOOTRÓPOLIS 2" (3,75 estrellas) La banda sonora de Zootrópolis 2, compuesta por Michael Giacchino (Up, Inside Out, The Batman), es uno de los grandes valores narrativos de la secuela y confirma al compositor como una pieza esencial del ADN emocional de la saga. Giacchino retoma los motivos jazzísticos y urbanos que definían la identidad sonora de la primera película y los expande con mayor sofisticación rítmica y orquestal, acompañando el nuevo tono del relato, más adulto y menos ingenuo, sin perder el espíritu lúdico que caracteriza a Judy Hopps y Nick Wilde.
Max Foizey interviews Ginnifer Goodwin about her role as Judy Hopps in "Zootopia" and "Zootopia 2," gives his picks for the new Christmas movie classics, and along with Carl Middleman, reviews "The Housemaid" and "Wake Up Dead Man."
Zootopia Better Zoogether opened at Disney's Animal Kingdom in November 2025. Featuring characters from Walt Disney Animation Studios' films Zootopia and Zootopia 2, the attraction invites guests to attend the Zoogether Day celebrations at a watch party happening at the Tree of Life.

Fresh off the long Thanksgiving weekend, Jim and Lauren crawl out from under their leftover Pilgrim sandwiches to talk about Zootopia 2 absolutely owning the holiday box office, how that might shape Disney's sequel strategy, and the must-have merch that is already slithering into the parks. They also dig into McDonald's massive 70th anniversary Happy Meal promotion, Disney's official holiday book guide, and a couple of doorstop tomes that are now living in the Hersey household. In the back half, Jim takes Lauren on a whirlwind tour through nearly 80 years of Disney's talking-animal history - from Song of the South all the way to Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. NEWS • Zootopia 2's Thanksgiving opening pulls in a projected 156 million dollars domestically and around 400 million dollars overseas in just five days - more than half a billion total and one of the biggest Thanksgiving hauls ever. • How those numbers stack up against Wicked for Good and last year's Moana 2, plus why Universal probably is not panicking while it waits for the inevitable Wicked sing-along edition and a newly announced Galinda prequel novel. • The debut of Gary the Snake - a gloriously weird Zootopia 2 sipper at Disneyland - and Jim's crusade to track down Nog the snow seal pup plush that was gifted to Disney Television Animation staffers. • McDonald's 70th celebration Happy Meal, featuring 70 different Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and classic character toys with two figures per box - plus online grumbling over who made the cut (hello, Clarabelle) and who suspiciously did not (sorry, Cinderella). • Disney Parks Blog's holiday book guide, from deep-dive art and history titles like the X Atencio tribute and John Landau's memoir to Moana's “What if she stole the heart?” Twisted Tale, kid-friendly atlases, scratch-n-sniff adventures, and the giant Holiday Magic at the Disney Parks and Bring the Magic Home books currently threatening Lauren's fingernails. FEATURE • A crash course in Disney's history with anthropomorphized animals - starting with the animated sequences in 1946's Song of the South and why so many artists remembered that era as their happiest time at the studio after returning from World War II. • The rise and fall of the abandoned Chanticleer project, the “Roy's Boys” money feud with Walt, and how that detour accidentally sent Mark Davis to Imagineering where he helped create icons like Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion. • How The Aristocats, Robin Hood, and even The Jungle Book paved the way for modern animal worlds - including the infamous animation recycling in Robin Hood's “Phony King of England” sequence that sharp-eyed fans still spot today. • The long development path from the shelved spy thriller Savage Seas, starring Jack Savage, to the fully realized animal metropolis of Zootopia - including John Lasseter's notes, Jared Bush's CIA family background, and the last-minute decision to swap Nick Wilde out for Judy Hopps as the true lead.

Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde are on the case when a snake threatens to steal a book valuable to the history of Zootopia. There's more than meets the eye, however, and much adventure ensues.
Min 5: NUREMBERG (3 estrellas) 'Nuremberg ', dirigida por James Vanderbilt y protagonizada por Rami Malek en la piel del psiquiatra militar Douglas Kelley y Russell Crowe como un inquietante Hermann Göring, plantea un thriller histórico que convierte los juicios más determinantes del siglo XX en un duelo psicológico sostenido más que en un simple repaso académico. Basada en el libro 'El nazi y el psiquiatra', la película se concentra en las entrevistas carcelarias donde Kelley intenta evaluar la salud mental de los acusados mientras descubre que el mal que encarnan no reside en la locura, sino en una mezcla de cálculo, narcisismo y capacidad para manipular. Min 11: PUÑALES POR LA ESPALDA: DE ENTRE LOS MUERTOS (4 estrellas) 'Puñales por la espalda: De entre los muertos', dirigida por Rian Johnson y protagonizada por Daniel Craig como el incombustible Benoit Blanc junto a Josh O'Connor, Cailee Spaeny y Kerry Washington, recupera el espíritu juguetón del whodunit contemporáneo y lo desplaza hacia un terreno más oscuro sin perder la ironía marca de la casa. Johnson arma un misterio que se abre en capas, con una muerte que parece más teatral que real, un elenco de sospechosos que van revelando el tipo de grietas morales que sostienen a los millonarios modernos y un detective que, entre bromas, sigue desentrañando la estupidez humana con la lucidez que lo hizo célebre en las dos entregas anteriores. Min 16: COARTADAS (2,5 estrellas) 'Coartadas', dirigida por Martín Cuervo y protagonizada por Jaime Lorente, Adriana Torrebejano y Leo Harlem, convierte la idea de una empresa especializada en fabricar excusas perfectas en el punto de partida de una comedia de enredo que funciona como retrato ligero, pero reconocible, de la cultura de la mentira cómoda. Cuervo, que se apoya en el modelo de la francesa 'Alibi.com', estira la premisa hasta el límite cuando el dueño de la agencia se enamora de una mujer que detesta a los mentirosos y descubre, demasiado tarde, que el padre de ella es uno de sus clientes más fieles. Min 18: SINGULAR (2,5 estrellas) 'Singular', dirigida por Alberto Gastesi y protagonizada por Patricia López Arnaiz y Javier Rey —con la aparición de Miguel Iriarte como elemento detonante— traza un thriller psicológico con matices de ciencia ficción y drama familiar, en el que la frontera entre la pérdida, la culpa y la esperanza se vuelve difusa. Gastesi plantea una reunión traumática: doce años tras la muerte de su hijo, Diana —especialista en inteligencia artificial— y Martín se ven obligados a volver a su vieja casa junto al lago, un escenario que debería servir para cerrar heridas y acaba convirtiéndose en un territorio de fantasmas emocionales cuando un joven con un inquietante parecido al hijo muerto irrumpe en sus vidas. Min 20: ZOOTRÓPOLIS 2 (3,5 estrellas) 'Zootrópolis 2', dirigida por Byron Howard y Jared Bush y protagonizada en su versión original por Ginnifer Goodwin y Jason Bateman como la agente Judy Hopps y el astuto Nick Wilde, retoma la energía de la primera entrega con un enfoque más ambicioso que mezcla sátira social, buddy movie y un toque de thriller urbano. La secuela desplaza a sus dos protagonistas hacia un caso que desborda lo policial y pone a prueba la frágil convivencia entre especies, un terreno donde la película brilla al combinar humor físico, guiños pop y una lectura adulta sobre el miedo, la desinformación y los prejuicios contemporáneos. Min 24: LA VOZ DE HIND (4,5 estrellas) 'La voz de Hind', dirigida por Kaouther Ben Hania y protagonizada por Saja Kilani junto a Motaz Malhees y Clara Khoury, reconstruye —con una crudeza conmovedora— el último grito de auxilio de una niña de seis años atrapada en Gaza tras un ataque aéreo, utilizando la voz real de la víctima para prolongar su súplica en el tiempo y colocar al espectador ante la evidencia de un horror que muchos prefieren ignorar. Alberto Luchini se deshace en elogios ante la que considera una de esas películas que trascenderá en el tiempo y que considera imprescindible. MIn 28: "BLUE MOON" (3 estrellas) 'Blue Moon', dirigida por Richard Linklater y protagonizada por Ethan Hawke como el letrista atormentado Lorenz Hart, junto a Margaret Qualley, Andrew Scott y Bobby Cannavale, pone sobre la mesa la angustia de un artista que ve su ocaso profesional y emocional justo cuando el mundo celebra a su antiguo colaborador. La película transcurre en una única noche —la del estreno de 'Oklahoma!' en 1943— y convierte un bar de Broadway en un tribunal de musas, ego y desencanto. Min 32: "SOLO PIENSO EN TI". DOCUMENTAL. 3,5 estrellas Auspiciada por CMM y el gobierno de Castilla-La Mancha, 'Solo pienso en ti', dirigida por Hugo de la Riva y centrada en la historia real de María José y Emilio, dos jóvenes con discapacidad intelectual que en los años setenta desafiaron prejuicios familiares, médicos y legales para vivir juntos y formar un proyecto de vida, propone un documental que combina rigor histórico, emoción contenida y una mirada profundamente humana sobre la dignidad y el derecho a amar. El director manchego nos deja un mensaje muy especial para animar el visionado del largometraje. Min 35: "FLORES PARA ANTONIO". (3 estrellas) 'Flores para Antonio', dirigida por Isaki Lacuesta y articulada en torno a la figura del cantante Antonio Flores, reconstruye la trayectoria breve, intensa y frágil de un artista que convirtió su dolor en una voz propia y terminó devorado por la presión familiar, la exigencia pública y sus propios fantasmas. Lacuesta esquiva el biopic convencional y opta por un documental que mezcla material doméstico nunca visto, grabaciones de estudio, diarios, entrevistas actuales con familiares y músicos cercanos, y una puesta en escena que ilumina tanto la energía creativa de Antonio como la sombra emocional que lo acompañó desde joven. Min 40: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON JULIÁN LOMINCHAR En la entrega de hoy nuestro invitado es Julián Lominchar, dibujante y animador toledano que ha vivido un año decisivo tras formar parte del equipo de Robot Dreams y ser admitido (esta misma semana) en la Academia de Cine. Un reconocimiento que confirma su proyección dentro de la animación española. Lominchar habla con la mirada limpia de quien se ha criado entre lápices, papel y sueños posibles, y por eso no sorprende que su elección para La película de tu vida sea el 'Pinocho' de 1940. Min 42: BSO: "DRÁCULA", de Danny Elfman (4 estrellas) La banda sonora de 'Drácula', compuesta por Danny Elfman, es un ejercicio de poderío musical en el que el autor recupera su faceta más gótica y sinfónica para construir un paisaje sonoro que respira deseo, amenaza y tragedia a partes iguales. Elfman articula el score como una sucesión de impulsos emocionales: cuerdas que se retuercen como si fuesen un hilo de sangre, metales que irrumpen con una gravedad casi litúrgica y coros que oscilan entre lo sagrado y lo profano, recordando por momentos la sensualidad oscura de 'Sleepy Hollow' y la teatralidad operística de su etapa más expresionista.

Walt Disney Animation Studios has had a rough couple years (to be nice), so it should be a surprise to absolutely no one that I had very little anticipation for Zootopia 2, yet another nearly 10-year late sequel from one of the House of Mouse's big animation studios.

The event was more than a fashion statement: both sons made their movie debut by voicing characters in the animated film. Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Shakira revealed her boys were a natural fit in the sound booth, bringing spontaneity and ease to their roles as Judy Hopps' brothers. This marks yet another way the singer intertwines family life with her artistic journey—something she highlighted on social media this week, sharing how Milan is writing songs and Sasha is delving into piano and vocals, echoing Shakira's passion for music, as Hola! reports.Zootopia 2 has continued to draw attention. Shakira discussed her return as Gazelle, now complete with a new original song for the movie, during a recent interview with ABC News. Fans online have praised her glamorous red carpet presence, sparking a wave of admiration for her and her sons' coordinated style, detailed by outlets such as Parade.Social media was set ablaze when Shakira teamed up for an unexpected and wildly viral TikTok collaboration with influencer Brooke Monk. As covered by Hola! and Marca, the duo's dance video—marked by matching black outfits and playful synergy—captured millions, showcasing Shakira's knack for generational crossover and organic internet moments. The singer used this social momentum to promote her music and her new haircare brand, Isima, while Monk's behind-the-scenes clips highlighted their genuine rapport.No unconfirmed romantic rumors or legal controversies surfaced in credible media over this span. The overarching narrative is Shakira's seamless command of global pop culture, breaking records live in South America, premiering major Hollywood films with her family, and effortlessly conquering new digital trends. Her activities this week—major sell-out shows, Hollywood highlights, and intimate family milestones—are likely to influence her biography for years to come, blending longevity, reinvention, and personal authenticity.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Shakira BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Shakira has been at the center of both entertainment headlines and heartfelt family spotlights in the past few days. On November 13, she made a dazzling return to Hollywood for the world premiere of Disney's Zootopia 2, reprising her fan-favorite role as Gazelle. Instead of attending the Latin Grammys—where she was a major highlight last year and the industry was abuzz for her possible appearance as reported by Hola—the superstar opted for a very personal evening in Los Angeles, taking her sons Milan and Sasha with her for what became an instantly iconic family red carpet moment. Every major outlet from Entertainment Tonight to Harpers Bazaar captured all three in coordinated lavender outfits, a clear and clever homage to Gazelle's signature look and a nod to the film's message of unity and diversity.The red carpet was less a celebrity parade and more an affectionate family portrait, as the boys, ages 12 and 10, upstaged seasoned Hollywood veterans with their spontaneous, joyful manner. Cameras caught Milan and Sasha embracing Shakira, exchanging kisses, and charming reporters with their cheeky confidence. Shakira confirmed that her boys have joined the cast this time, voicing two of Judy Hopps' younger brothers. In interviews with outlets such as Entertainment Tonight and Good Morning America, she shared her excitement about working alongside her sons and revealed that they recorded their parts together, describing them as “very spontaneous and easy” behind the mic.Among celebrity watchers this was not just a cute family outing but a sign of the next generation stepping into the limelight. Milan's musical talents were mentioned with pride—he's already writing songs on piano, often using music as an emotional outlet since his parents' split. Sasha, described as both creative and athletic, designed the cover for Shakira's 2022 single Monotonía and is enthusiastic about voice acting, hoping for more roles in the future. Milan and Sasha have appeared in their mom's videos and public events before, including the 2025 Grammy Awards, but this animated debut is being treated as their biggest Hollywood moment yet.Social media lit up after their appearance, with fans praising Shakira for prioritizing her children and the trio's show-stopping lavender looks. The press followed up with coverage noting the maturity of Milan and Sasha despite public family challenges. Zootopia 2, set for release November 26, has gained additional buzz thanks to Shakira and her sons, and entertainment outlets are predicting this will be one of Disney's top films of the year.Her latest album Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, inspired by her journey post-separation from Gerard Piqué, continues to ride high on the charts while her world tour closes out this December, with fans celebrating her evolution from global pop star to devoted mother and children's role model. In every major headline and platform, Shakira's message remains clear—her sons are her greatest pride and inspiration, and together they shine brighter than ever on Hollywood's main stage.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
