The modern mammal city of Zootropolis is a place like no other. From the ritzy Sahara Square to the arid Tundratown, it’s a big melting pot of a city, where animals of all shapes and sizes live together. Disney’s stunning new film invites you to join optimistic Officer Judy Hopps, the first bunny rabbit on a police force of tough animals, as she attempts to solve the mystery case of a missing otter.
In a city that’s separated into classes, where animals face prejudices based on preconceived notions about their species, Judy discovers that her task isn’t so easy. But she’s determined to prove herself and crack the case - even if it means partnering with the fast-talking, scam-artist fox Nick Wilde…
If you’re a Disney fan, an animator or a budding director, don’t miss out on this exclusive preview of Zootropolis. The screening is followed by an incredible behind-the- scenes masterclass with the film’s directors Rich Moore (Wreck-It Ralph) and Byron Howard (Tangled). As well as being among the first to watch Zootopia on the big screen, you’ll have the chance to quiz the directors about the making of the film during a lively Q&A session.
