Who produced Zootopia?

The story behind the answer

Clark Spencer produced Zootopia. As producer, he helped guide the animated feature through development, production, and its release for Walt Disney Animation Studios, working alongside directors Byron Howard and Rich Moore.

Spencer joined Disney Feature Animation in 1993 and first became a feature producer on Lilo & Stitch. He later produced films including Bolt, Winnie the Pooh, and Wreck-It Ralph before taking on Zootopia. His career combines production management with senior leadership at Disney Animation.

Zootopia was released in 2016 and became one of the studio’s biggest successes, earning more than $1 billion worldwide. Spencer’s work on the film was recognized with the Producers Guild of America Award for Best Animated Feature and an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

The alternative names are notable Disney filmmakers, but they held different roles on Zootopia or other projects. Andrew Stanton and Pete Docter are strongly associated with Pixar, while John Lasseter was a major Disney and Pixar executive and executive producer, not Zootopia’s credited producer.
