I don’t know about you, but I am currently running on my last brain cell during finals season. Between exams, holiday chaos, and trying to keep up with work, December feels like A LOT. Thankfully, Zootopia 2 dropped at the perfect time—and the internet, as always, is collectively losing it over Nick Wilde, the sarcastic, annoyingly charming fox voiced by Jason Bateman.
Even though I haven’t seen the movie yet, TikTok and early reviews make it pretty clear the film wasn’t made for kids—it was made for us, the now-college-aged adults who saw the first movie back in 2016. Nick’s unhinged comments referencing “unresolved childhood trauma”, quick witted-jokes, and overall energy are almost too relatable.
So, in honor of the release—and to give your finals week a tiny serotonin boost—I rounded up my top 10 Nick Wilde TikTok edits. Enjoy, and may these carry you through the last stretch of the semester!
#10: Starting strong with this masterpiece. I don’t know where Nick got his aura from but men of 2025 should take notes.
#9: Who decided Nick Wilde + Justin Timberlake’s “SexyBack” was a combo we needed? Because they were absolutely correct.
#8: This could genuinely be Disney promo. Cinematic. Emotional. Oscar-worthy.
#7: Lo and behold: the “I really am just a dumb bunny” intro edit that owns almost 3 million likes—and my entire heart.
#6: A tuxedo edit? For my girls who were waiting…..your time has come.
#5: The cleanest Nick Wilde transition in existence. Editor of the year right here.
#4: Hear. Me. Out.
#3: Nick Wilde x Rihanna’s “Breakin’ Dishes” is the chaotic energy I didn’t know I needed.
#2: Dare I say the hardest transition in the Zootopia editing world today.
#1: A true work of art. DJ Snake’s slowed “You know You Like It”, Nick’s most iconic moments, peak nostalgia…this edit is Nick Wilde supremacy. Period.
If these edits boosted your mood even 1%, my job here is done. Now go treat yourself to Zootopia 2 after a hard-earned semester—you deserve it!
