However, numerous obstacles arise during the reconstruction process, leaving their fate uncertain. The movie has captured audiences worldwide, and it is now leading the pack in terms of box office earnings.
As the top-grossing animated film of 2024, Ne Zha 2 has cemented its place in cinematic history. With a projected release date for the next installment still to be decided, fans are eagerly waiting to see what’s next for this beloved character.
