Zootopia 
The modern mammal metropolis called Zootopia is a city unlike any other. Made up of neighborhood-habitat like the elegant Sahara Square and the icy Tundratown, it's a great mix where animals of all kinds environments live together — a place where no matter what you are, from the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anyone thing.
But when optimistic police officer Judy Hopps arrives, she discovers that being the first rabbit in a police force of big, strong animals is not easy. Determined to prove her worth, she seizes the opportunity to solve a case, even if it means partnering with talking fox and crook Nick Wilde, to unravel the mystery.
Zootopia by Walt Disney Animation Studios is an adventure comedy directed by Byron Howard (Tangled, Bolt – The Superdog) and Rich Moore (Wrecks Ralph, The Simpsons) and co-directed by Jared Bush (Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero) and opens in theaters on March 3, 2016.
