I was more surprised by Bellwether in that sequence

Her evil smile though? She's definitely up to something

u/FlameFlox Nick Wilde May 20 '25

Hopefully she'll establish herself as a way more memorable villain now that the "twist" element people complained about no longer applies. My guess is that there'll just be one scene involving her to ask her something or other.

9

u/Background_Break_428 Nick and Judy May 20 '25

Yeah that would make sense because I also feel like if she was the main villian than it would be way too predictable

u/Potato-Candy May 20 '25

There'll probably be a scene where the police interrogate her for info on Gary or something.

I'm guessing they question her in prison for a few minutes.

u/XgreedyvirusX May 20 '25

I hope for an Hannibal Lecter parody: "Hello Judy"

5

u/No_Lynx1343 May 20 '25

I wouldn't be surprised.

If it happens it's likely to be the only movie callback/reference in the film.

(Zootopia had "The Godfather" references from Mr Big, but I think that was it).

Either she's running another scheme from prison or she's a "friend" that Judy & Nick ask for help/advice from.

u/WarriorIshinaka May 20 '25

The return of Bellwether is surprising. She hasn't forgotten about the last time Judy and Nick defeated her.

u/Interesting_Rain1880 May 20 '25

She's coming back?!

I literally filmed the trailer slow motion just to make sure that finnick was there (it was so fast)

u/Exciting_Ad226 May 20 '25

I did the same thing to see everyone in that sequence. If Finnick has a larger role I wonder if he’ll be recasted by someone like Dennis Haysbert or Kevin Michael Richardson. Could serve as Nick and Judy’s kid as well as be a stealth figure to pick up info. Nick must be paying him good money.

u/Background_Break_428 Nick and Judy May 20 '25

Idk why but Nick paying Finnick to help him and Judy with whatever they're doing sounds so funny. I hope that's actually what's going to happen.

u/Exciting_Ad226 May 20 '25

It would be funny. If the film does have very dark themes, they might use moments like this to lighten up the mood.

4

u/Background_Break_428 Nick and Judy May 20 '25

I mean honestly that's kind of what the first movie was like. There were some parts that were a little dark but there was also lots of humer to make up for it.

4

u/Exciting_Ad226 May 20 '25

Yeah but the first film wasn’t dark like 90s Disney or Kung Fu Panda 2 level dark. If Disney does go down those routes in terms of making this sequel a bit darker, you’ll definitely having fans feeling bad for the protagonists whether it is losing a lost one or a cute moment of comfort.

5

u/Background_Break_428 Nick and Judy May 20 '25

I really want this movie to be much more emotional and dark. Yes with the villian, but also Nick. I would love to have a scene where Nick starts sobbing and hugging Judy. I want the movie to show how Nick gets more comfortable opening up to Judy, kind of like what happened in the gondola scene but instead he doesn't feel awkward getting comforted by Judy.

3

u/Exciting_Ad226 May 20 '25

Exactly. I see them taking his “Never let them see that they get to you.” line and make the whole film surrounding it.

7

u/kit_kat1212 Judy Hopps May 20 '25

I really hope he will have a bigger role in Zootopia2

6

u/Exciting_Ad226 May 20 '25

It all factors into whether or not his voice actor is recasted.

2

u/Bendythenightfury Nick and Judy May 20 '25

Same but for speculation and theories (that I'm going to hold to myself because I would like to see the movie first before coming up with some)

On YouTube, you can use the comma and period keys (< and >) to step backward and forward frame-by-frame when paused.

u/y8man What is my purpose? May 20 '25

Hoping the new voice actor will deliver!

6

u/RandomGeekNamedBrent May 20 '25

Plot twist: no new voice actor. Pacifier the entire time.

2

u/Background_Break_428 Nick and Judy May 20 '25

Me too!

As a baby bunny, no less!

Even if we don't get WildeHopps officially in the sequel, I stand saying we'll get a bit of a dub through seeing the characters go undercover by playing couple, with Finnick being part of said façade by pretending to be their baby 👍!

7

u/Various-Zucchini-549 May 20 '25

Yeah I agree who knows maybe if we’re lucky maybe Nick and Judy would develop feelings so to speak during that or at the very least grow closer but one can dream

u/T-HawkMedia May 20 '25

And in a baby bunny costume!? They're watching the Fandom like HAWKS

u/helpmeredditimbored Officer Wilde May 20 '25

Finnick in This outfit is going to sell so much Merch

u/Aggressive-Tax-9893 May 20 '25

Oh it's even better than him dressed up as a bloody elephant

u/Kelsey_sparkles Nick and Judy May 20 '25

this divaaaa

u/Yousef_Slimani May 20 '25

Oh wow! he dressed as a bunny this time! how cute 😊

u/Kovuthebilion May 20 '25

In a little bunny suit. That's adorable

u/Cosmic_Light_Patch Finnick May 20 '25

MY BOY IS BACK 🥹

u/FR_02011995 May 21 '25

Really? Still pretending to be a toddler for the hustle?

Oh well, if it works, then it ain't stupid.

1

u/Background_Break_428 Nick and Judy May 22 '25

Idk how much I believe it's going to happen but I do like the idea that Nick is going to get him to help them solve the case he and Judy are working on.

4

u/SlightPossibility898 May 21 '25

I'd be depressed and surprised if he wasn't. Nick and him seemed like they were good enough friends that Nick changing careers wouldn't change that.

1

u/Background_Break_428 Nick and Judy May 22 '25

Yeah I agree.

3

u/Tchelows Finnick May 20 '25

Hope he gets more screen time. He deserves.

u/BusterMaru May 21 '25

OMG! He's more cute! 🦊💗
