Ginnifer Goodwin to lend her voice for Disney’s Zootopia

Ginnifer Goodwin has agreed to lend her voice for Disney’s Zootopia, reported for TheWrap. The 36-year-old actress will join Jason Bateman to form the lead voice cast of animation film. Walt Disney Studios made the announcement of recruiting the He’s Just Not Into You actress on Wednesday.

The actress will be lending her voice to a character named Judy Hopps. Hopps is a cheerful bunny new to Zootopia’s police department. While Jason Bateman will be lending his voice to deceitful fox named Nick Wilde. Hopps teams up with Wilde to solve her first case. The movie will be helmed by Tangled director Byron Howard.

“We knew that ‘Zootopia’ would only succeed if we found the perfect actors to play our main characters”, said the director. “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”, he added.
