London, UK. (Monday 9th March, 2026) - Mabel and her mammal friends secure top spot as #1 film on opening weekend at the UK & Ireland box office accumulating £3,329,509 across the 3-day weekend (£4.8M with previews), also taking in $46M domestically; $88M internationally. The critically acclaimed original animation drove 34% of ticket sales at the UK & Ireland box office.

In Disney and Pixar’s all-new animated comedy adventure “Hoppers,” animal lover Mabel (voice of Piper Curda) seizes an opportunity to use a new technology to ‘hop’ her consciousness into a life-like robotic beaver and communicate directly with animals. As she uncovers mysteries in the animal world beyond anything she could have imagined, Mabel befriends charismatic beaver, King George (voice of Bobby Moynihan), and must rally the entire animal kingdom to face a major, imminent human-threat: smooth-talking local mayor Jerry Generazzo (voice of Jon Hamm). The all-star voice ensemble also features Kathy Najimy, Dave Franco and Meryl Streep. “Hoppers” is directed by Daniel Chong and produced by Nicole Paradis Grindle, with an original score by Mark Mothersbaugh. The film is in cinemas now.
