After slipping to #2 last week, Disney's Zootopia 2 returns to the top spot at this weekend's box office, bringing in $26.3 million, according to Box Office Mojo. The new earnings bring the animated film's domestic box office total to close to $259 million.

According to Variety, Zootpia 2 has taken in $1.13 billion globally, making it the highest-grossing Hollywood film of the year. The only movie that's earned more is an animated Chinese film, Ne Zha 2, with $1.9 billion.

Last weekend's #1, Five Nights at Freddy's 2, slips one spot to #2, with a $19.5 million take, followed by Wicked: For Good at #3 with $8.55 million.

It was a slow weekend for new films, with Ella McCay -- the James L. Brooks-directed film starring Sex Education's Emma Mackey -- the only new film to debut in the top 10 at #7, with earnings of $2.1 million.

There were also two rereleased films that earned a top-10 finish: 2000's How the Grinch Stole Christmas at #8 with $1.85 million and 1980's The Shining at #10 with $1.56 million.
