We already knew that Jason Bateman would
be voicing Nick Wilde, a scam artist fox in Disney Animation Studios' next
film, Zootopia. Now the studio has revealed that Ginnifer Goodwin has joined
the film and will voice Judy Hopps, the first rabbit police officer, who forms
an unlikely partnership with Wilde to crack a case and succeed in a police
force of big and tough animals.
"We knew
that Zootopia would only succeed if we found the perfect
actors to play our main characters," said director Byron Howard.
"This rabbit- and fox-duo are in practically every scene in the film
together. After meeting Ginnifer, we knew she embodied Hopps, the ultimate pure-of-heart,
idealist bunny. You fall in love with her character instantly. And for Nick
Wilde, our cynical con-artist fox, we only ever had one actor in mind, the
incomparable Jason Bateman. Jason has a way of saying the most hilarious
sarcastic things while always staying completely charming. We feel so fortunate
to be working with both of them."
Directed by Byron Howard (Tangled),
Rich Moore (Wreck-it Ralph), and co-directed by Jared Bush (Penn Zero:
Part-Time Hero), Zootopia opens on March 4, 2016.
