Ralph Breaks the Internet is a 2018 American animatedcomedy film produced byWalt Disney Animation Studios. The film was directed byRich Moore andPhil Johnston and written by Johnston andPamela Ribon.John C. Reilly,Sarah Silverman,Jack McBrayer,Jane Lynch, andEd O'Neill reprise their character roles from the first film, withGal Gadot,Taraji P. Henson, andAlfred Molina joining the cast.Alan Tudyk also returns, voicing a different character. The sequel toWreck-It Ralph (2012), the film follows Ralph and Vanellope von Schweetz, who must travel to the internet to get a replacement for theSugar Rush cabinet's broken steering wheel and prevent Mr. Litwak from disposing of the game.
Discussions about a sequel toWreck-It Ralph began in September 2012, and the new installment went through three different scripts before the filmmakers settled on the final plot. When the film was officially announced in June 2016, most of the original cast confirmed they had signed on, with new cast members added in 2018.[5] The film's title ofRalph Breaks the Internet was announced in March 2017.[6]
Ralph Breaks the Internet premiered inHollywood, Los Angeles, on November 5, 2018, and was released in the United States on November 21. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and was a box office success, grossing $529 million worldwide against a $175 million budget. It was nominated for Best Animated Feature at the91st Academy Awards,76th Golden Globe Awards,46th Annie Awards, and24th Critics' Choice Awards.
Six years after the events ofthe first film, Ralph and Vanellope have stayed best friends, hanging out after work in Litwak'sArcade. Ralph is content with their life, but Vanellope longs for excitement and expresses how bored she has become ofSugar Rush's predictability. To please her, Ralph sneaks into her game and makes a secret road. The next day, when Vanellope fights the arcade player's control to test the track, the cabinet's steering wheel breaks. As the company that madeSugar Rush is out of business, and the cost of a replacement wheel oneBay is expensive, Litwak decides to scrapSugar Rush and unplugs the game, leaving its citizens homeless. The Surge Protector finds refuge for allSugar Rush's citizens as a short-term measure as they figure out how to save the game, with Felix and Calhoun adopting the racers. Remembering eBay, Ralph and Vanellope travel through Litwak's newWi-Fi router to theInternet, a place where websites are represented as buildings in a sprawling city,avatars represent users, andprograms are people.
The search engine KnowsMore redirects them to eBay, where they win the auction for the steering wheel by unintentionally spiking the price toUS$27,001 only to find they have just 24 hours to raise the funds, or they will lose the bid and the wheel. On the way out, they run intoclickbait salesman J. P. Spamley, whobrokers items obtained from video games and offers them a lucrative job of stealing a car from Shank, the lead character in the popular racing-centeredbattle royale gameSlaughter Race. They steal Shank's car, but she stops them before they can leave the game with it. Suggesting another way to make money on the Internet, she proceeds to make aviral video of Ralph and uploads it to video-sharing site BuzzzTube. She directs them to BuzzzTube's headalgorithm, Yesss, who capitalizes on Ralph's video popularity. They decide to make more videos, which will earn them the money for the wheel if they attract enoughviews. Vanellope offers to help advertise the videos, and Ralph has Yesss send her toOh My Disney. There, while being chased byStormtroopers for unauthorized advertising, Vanellope befriends theDisney Princesses, being encouraged by them to discuss her sense of un-fulfillment and reaching an epiphany in the form of an"I Want" song on the subject. Meanwhile, Ralph makes enough money to buy the wheel but finds Vanellope talking with Shank, overhearing how she wants to stay inSlaughter Race, having felt at home there due to its relative novelty and unpredictability compared toSugar Rush.
Worried about losing his friend forever, Ralph asks Spamley for a way to draw Vanellope out of the game and is brought to thedark web vendor Double Dan, who provides Ralph with acomputer virus, Arthur, that feeds offinsecurities and replicates them. When Ralph unleashes Arthur intoSlaughter Race, it replicates Vanellope's glitch, triggering a server reboot. Ralph, Shank, and the others help Vanellope escape before the game resets. Vanellope blames herself for the crash, but Ralph confesses to her that it was actually his fault. This revelation outrages Vanellope, as Ralph pointed out she's no better for attempting to leave him without telling him, which causes her to throw away Ralph's cookie medal and run off.
A guilt-ridden Ralph finds his medal now cracked-in-half. In lieu of cyber-insecurities, Arthur copies Ralph'semotional insecurities, and makes dim-witted and emotionally unstable duplicates of Ralph. The clones overrun the Internet in a globalDoS attack, all chasing after Vanellope to keep her for themselves. Ralph saves her and attempts to lure the clones into a firewall, but they form a giant Ralph monster that seizes them both. Ralph comes to accept that Vanellope can make her own choices, letting go of his insecurities and causing the clones to disappear, and Ralph and Vanellope reconcile. Ralph gives half of the broken medal to Vanellope and they bid each other a heartfelt farewell as Shank has arranged for Vanellope torespawn inSlaughter Race.
Back in the arcade,Sugar Rush is repaired, and Ralph joins the other arcade characters' activities as he stays in touch with Vanellope over video chat, feeling content with his newfound ability to be independent.

The first 12 characters in theDisney Princess line appear, along withAnna andElsa fromFrozen.[8][16] All but three of the original voice actresses reprised their roles.[16]Cinderella,Snow White, andAurora were voiced byJennifer Hale,Pamela Ribon, andKate Higgins, respectively, asIlene Woods andAdriana Caselotti had died andMary Costa had retired.[8][17] Additionally, Rajah (Jasmine's pet tiger), Meeko (Pocahontas' pet raccoon), Cinderella's mice (including Jaq and Gus) and her bird companions, and Prince Naveen (in his frog form, whom Ralph mistakes forFrogger) also appear in the film.[18]
Several characters from other films and media also cameo with their original or current voice actors, such asRoger Craig Smith asSonic the Hedgehog,Maurice LaMarche asTapper,Brad Garrett asEeyore fromWinnie the Pooh,Corey Burton asGrumpy fromSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs,Anthony Daniels asC-3PO fromStar Wars,Vin Diesel asGroot from theMarvel Cinematic Universe, andTim Allen asBuzz Lightyear fromToy Story.[19]
Additionally,Melissa Villaseñor voices Taffyta Muttonfudge, one of theSugar Rush racers, replacingMindy Kaling from the first film;[19]Bill Hader provides the uncredited voice of J. P. Spamley, a personification ofclickbait pop-up ads represented as a desperate salesman who cannot make a sale;[20]John DiMaggio voices Arthur, an insecurity virus;[19]Sean Giambrone (English YouTuberDaniel "DanTDM" Middleton in the UK version, but not on the UK home release) voices eBoy, an eBay employee who informs Ralph of the status on the eBay item deadline;[1][21]Flula Borg voices Maybe, an algorithm who is an assistant to Yesss;[15] andDianna Agron voices the news anchor covering the virus in the real world.[19]Ali Wong,Timothy Simons,GloZell Green, andHamish Blake, respectively, voice Felony, Butcher Boy, Little Debbie, and Pyro, all of whom are other characters inSlaughter Race as Shank's racing crew.[1] The film's directorsRich Moore andPhil Johnston reprise their roles as Sour Bill, Zangief (Moore), and the Surge Protector (Johnston), respectively.[19] YouTube personalitiesColleen Ballinger, Dani Fernandez, andTiffany Herrera voice cameos,[22] withNicole Scherzinger having a cameo voice role in a mid-credits scene.[23]
Similar to the first film,Ralph Breaks the Internet includes a number of cameos and references to video games and various Disney properties, includingWalt Disney Animation Studios films,Pixar Animation Studios films,Star Wars,Marvel Cinematic Universe, andThe Muppets productions.[24] The bandImagine Dragons (whose song "Zero" is featured in a trailer for the film, as well as its end credits and soundtrack) make a cameo appearance in the film, with the members voicing themselves.[25][26] The video gameFortnite Battle Royale is briefly shown, including the battle bus and thefloss dance.[24]Stan Lee, Marvel Comics' former writer, editor and publisher, makes a cameo appearance in the film. Lee died some days before the film's premiere, making his appearance inRalph Breaks the Internetone of his final cameos in films.[27]
The filmmakers revealed that the film originally featured a joke aboutKylo Ren being a "spoiled child", which was later cut from the film by request fromLucasfilm because it would undermine his role as a villain.[28] Also cut from the film was C-3PO being mockingly calledR2-D2 andBB-8 by the princesses.[16] Additionally, the film would originally includeThe Golden Girls characters, but it was later cut because the directors felt it was a bizarrejuxtaposition.[29] The legion of Ralph clones, which forms a gigantic Ralph monster,[30] resembles theKing Kong character from various films.[31] During production, the giant monster form was dubbed "Ralphzilla" afterGodzilla.[32]
In September 2012, two months beforeWreck-It Ralph was released,Rich Moore said that there were already ideas for asequel,[33] and in March 2013, Moore said that he and Disney had ideas about a sequel that would bring the characters up to date and exploreonline gaming andconsole gaming.[34] Moore stated that many of the crew and voice cast were open to the sequel, believing that they have "barely scratched the surface" of the video game world they envisioned.[35] He also stated that he planned to includeTron in the sequel,[36] which appears briefly in the film, where Ralph and Vanellope race at the beginning.[24] In 2014, the first film's composerHenry Jackman said that a story for the sequel was being written.[37]
In March 2016, Moore stated that a sequel was still being planned.[38] In June 2016, Walt Disney Animation Studios announced that the sequel would be released on March 9, 2018, with Moore andPhil Johnston attached, and that its story would be one where "Ralph leaves the arcade and wrecks the Internet".[39]
In March 2017, the sequel's title was officially announced asRalph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2, with Moore returning as director joined by the first film's co-writer, Johnston, andClark Spencer also returning as producer.[6] In July 2018, Disney removedWreck-It Ralph 2 from the film's title.[40]
Two working versions of the script had been scrapped before settling on the one used for the film, according to head of storyJosie Trinidad.[41] In one version, Vanellope had become self-absorbed by the Internet, gaining popularity and becoming a celebrity among the users. Ralph had been thrown in jail where he met the search engine Knowsmore, and they had partnered together to escape prison and help bring Vanellope back to her normal self.[41] A second version had Ralph becoming an Internet-famous celebrity and would have been challenged by ananti-virus program named BEV that served as a super cop and would have been the story's villain.[42] Trinidad said neither of these versions captured what they felt was the centerpiece of the sequel, being how Ralph and Vanellope reacted to the new world of the Internet and realizing they have separate paths going forward.[41]
Producer Clark Spencer said that "the film is about change. Two best friends are about to realize that the world won't always be the same. The internet is the perfect setting, really, because it's all about change—things change by the second".[5]: 3 Director of story Jim Reardon said that it was intimidating to set the film on the Internet, stating that "[They] looked at how [they] could make the internet relatable on a human level—like how Game Central Station aka the power strip mirrored a train station in the first movie."[5]: 3–4 Reardon, however, said that Disney "didn't want to make the movie about the internet", instead focus on Ralph and Vanellope's friendship, and to treat the Internet as "the place where the movie takes place".[5]: 4 Josie Trinidad claimed that the filmmakers "didn't want to just give the audience more of that friendship — [people had] to see that relationship grow."[5]: 4
The designs of scenes within the Internet were based on tours made ofOne Wilshire in Los Angeles, as it is one of the world's largest telecommunications centers.[12] The filmmakers did not approach any of the companies (outside of Disney) that are represented on the Internet and strove to include net branding from all across the world.[12] They also had to explore variousInternet memes, making sure to avoid those that lacked long-term presence on the Internet.[12] While the film addresses many positive elements of the Internet, the filmmakers did not want to shy away from covering some of the more unpleasant aspects about it, in part fueled by the success of tackling racism indirectly withinZootopia.[12] They wanted to follow the same approach as they had with Judy Hopps inZootopia, where she experienced, learned, and overcame the racism aspects, and have Ralph similarly learn and become a better person without having to actually solve the issue of hostility on the Internet.[43]
The scene where Vanellope is introduced to the Disney Princesses came from screenwriterPamela Ribon.[17] In 2014, Ribon was still working onMoana when Disney began internallypitching ideas for the sequel toWreck-It Ralph, Ribon recognized that like the title character ofMoana, Vanellope fits the definition of a Disney Princess.[17] When work formally began on the sequel after the completion ofZootopia, Ribon pitched the idea of Disney poking fun at itself by having Vanellope meet the other Disney Princesses in the green room of OhMyDisney.com, the Disney fan-driven website.[17] Further inspiration came from aBuzzFeed online quiz that asked which Disney Princess the user was; Moore thought it would be interesting if Ralph had encountered that quiz and ended up in an argument with Vanellope over the result.[12] The script was written by Ribon, which she wanted to include the various tropes of the Princesses, with them making in the final cut for the film. Moore and Johnston were satisfied with the script.[44]
In July 2015,John C. Reilly said he had signed on to reprise his role of Ralph in a projected sequel.[7] In March 2017,Jane Lynch,Jack McBrayer andSarah Silverman were reported as being set to reprise their roles.[6] In December 2016,Alan Tudyk confirmed his return in the sequel as a different character, named KnowsMore, after previously voicing King Candy in the first film.[10][14] During production, Moore invited film composerMichael Giacchino to reprise his role as theStormtrooper FN-3128 fromStar Wars: The Force Awakens in the film.[45] In August 2018, actressGal Gadot joined the cast as Shank.[9] The production team secured all the Disney Princesses' original voice actresses, except forAdriana Caselotti as Snow White,Ilene Woods as Cinderella andMary Costa as Aurora, due to the formers having both died in 1997 and 2010 respectively,[17][46] while the latter retired from acting in 2000.[47]Jennifer Hale andKate Higgins, the current voice actresses for Cinderella and Aurora, were hired for the film;[8]Pamela Ribon, the film's co-screenwriter, performed Snow White's voice for temporary tracks, but the team considered it a good substitute, allowing Ribon to voice her in the final film.[17]
The film contains over 150 unique sets and 5,726 assets, and includes the highest number of characters in any Disney Animation film, with 434 individual characters with 6,752 variants.[12] One of the Disney animators who helped out to bring the Disney Princesses into CGI animation wasMark Henn, who was also the original supervising animator of princessesAriel,Belle,Jasmine,Mulan, andTiana.[48][49] Henn also served as the supervising animator for the film's background hand-drawn animated characters.[50] Animators had to work out various techniques to take the different styles of animation into a single approach, and figure out the proportions of the characters using official figurines.[17][51] Unlike their original film counterparts, the Disney Princesses in the film were rendered in a more cartoony style with bigger eyes and ears.[48][51]
In the initial trailer for the film, theAfrican-American princess character Tiana appeared to have a lighter skin tone, a narrower nose, and more European features than she did in the 2009 filmThe Princess and the Frog.[52][53] This led to some backlashes on social media as these drew her appearance away from that expected of African-Americans.[53] As a result, Disney contacted Tiana's voice actress,Anika Noni Rose, and the advocacy groupColor of Change to redesign Tiana forRalph Breaks the Internet to make sure she resembles more closely to her 2009 appearance; the updated character model was revealed in the second trailer.[53][54][55] The same treatment was given toPocahontas, the titular character of the1995 film, as many viewers had pointed out that she was also given a much lighter skin tone.[54]
A scene featured in the film's original teaser, released in March 2018, involving Ralph and Vanellope invading a children's game and feeding pancakes to a bunny to the point that it is implied to explode, was heavily discussed prior to the film's release; however, the scene was eventually cut from the film and instead placed halfway through the credits, with the addition of a meta-conversation where one of the characters alludes to having just watched a movie where a scene from the trailer was missing.[56] The post-credits scene involves what starts as a teaser forFrozen II but cuts to Ralphrickrolling the audience by starting to singRick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up".[56] While producers Spencer and Moore had an idea of Ralph doing a "Wreck Roll" early on in the film's development, they never incorporated it into the story.[56] As it was one of the last scenes added, the producers had gotten Reilly, who was on vacation with his family at the time, to come into a New York City studio to record for the day so that the animators could work from that.[56]
On September 19, 2018,Imagine Dragons released the lead single from the soundtrack titled "Zero", which plays during the end credits of the film.[57] On October 23, 2018, the music video of "Zero" was posted on Imagine Dragons' YouTube channel.[58] The film features an original song called "A Place Called Slaughter Race", performed bySarah Silverman andGal Gadot, written by Tom MacDougall and the film's co-director Phil Johnston, and composed byAlan Menken; the song's pop version, "In This Place", was performed byJulia Michaels.[59] The film also features songs from various Disney Princess films, as well as Demi Lovato's cover of "Let it Go" played in the beginning of theOh My Disney scene.[50]: 9 Ralph also rickrolls the tune "Never Gonna Give You Up" byRick Astley in a post-credits scene.[56][60] The soundtrack was composed byHenry Jackman, who also composed the score from the previous film.[61] It was released digitally on November 16, 2018,[59] and on CD on November 30, 2018.[59]
To coincide with the film's release,Fortnite Battle Royale made a cameo appearance of Ralph via an "outdoor cinema screen" in the game's location "Risky Reels" and added the emote dance Hot Marat, which was available as a limited time offering.[62][63][64] For "Wreck Urselfie", a mobile experience used to build scenarios withGoogle Home featured Ralph and Vanellope stuck inside users' smartphones, as Google BrandLab usedGoogle's API Cloud Vision.[64] The firstWhatsApp experience that allowed fans to connect with Ralph and Vanellope while they navigated the Internet and ended up in WhatsApp.[64]Amazon, which promoted the film with its productsFireTV and theKindle Fire, and its subsidiaryIMDb, announced the "Pre-Black Friday sale" through the "themed landing page," which was seen in the scene where Ralph "broke" itshome page.[64] Furthermore, fans had some Disney offers and continued to connect the purchase of the film's tickets.[64]Carvana and Disney collaborated to promote the film's release throughout a multi-channel campaign.[65] The film collaborated with the mobile in-cinema game Noovie Arcade, which tied the video game used in the film's teaser, the "pancake milkshake", causing audiences to have each other's challenges and gainscores andmilkshakes at least 21,100 theaters includingAMC Theatres,Cinemark, andRegal Cinemas.[64] Thevirtual reality experience based on the film, which was created in collaboration withILMxLab andThe Void, titledRalph Breaks VR.[64][66] Aside from the film, it takes on a different plot.[64] Additional marketing partners for the film includedBAPE,[67] eBay,[21]Fandango,[68]Mailchimp,[69]McDonald's,[70]Netgear,[71] and Purple.[72]
In the month of the release of the film, theworld builder video gameDisney Magic Kingdoms included a limited time Event focused onRalph Breaks the Internet to promote it, with the characters involved in a new storyline unrelated to the events of the film, including Ralph, Vanellope, Yesss, Shank, Spamley, Felix, and Calhoun as playable characters, some attractions based on locations of the film, and the Comfy Costumes that Cinderella, Ariel, Belle, and Jasmine wear in the film.
Ralph Breaks the Internet premiered on November 5, 2018, at theEl Capitan Theatre inHollywood, Los Angeles.[73][74] It was initially scheduled for release on March 9,[39] but was later pushed back to November 21.[75] The film was also released inIMAX and3D formats.[76][77]
Ralph Breaks the Internet was released byWalt Disney Studios Home Entertainment on digital on February 12, 2019,[78] and onBlu-ray andDVD on February 26.[79] (The 3-D version of the film was released only in Japan, in a 4K/Blu-ray combo pack on April 24th, 2019.)[80] Bonus features include a behind-the-scenes featurette, a short highlighting some of theEaster eggs hidden throughout the film, deleted scenes, and the music videos for "Zero" and "In This Place".[78] A feature exclusive to the digital release is a featurette on the artists going to race car driving school to research all the driving inSlaughter Race.[78] In its first week,Ralph Breaks the Internet sold 225,099 DVDs and 816,890 Blu-rays as the most sold film on both formats in the United States.[81] Overall,Ralph Breaks the Internet sold 616,387 DVDs and 1.4 million Blu-rays, adding them up to get a total of 2 million copies, and made $47.7 million through home media releases.[81]
Ralph Breaks the Internet grossed $201.1 million in the United States and Canada, and $328.2 million in other territories, for a total worldwide gross of $529.3 million,[4] against a production budget of $175 million.[3]
In the United States and Canada,Ralph Breaks the Internet was released alongsideCreed II andRobin Hood, as well as the wide expansion ofGreen Book, and was originally projected to gross $67–77 million from 3,900+ theaters in its five-day opening weekend.[82][3] The film made $18.3 million on its first day[81] (including a pre-Thanksgiving record $3.8 million from Tuesday previews[83]) and another $10.2 million on its second.[81] It went on to debut to $55.7 million in its opening weekend (a five-day total of $84.5 million), finishing first at the box office and marking the second-best Thanksgiving opening behind Disney'sFrozen ($93.6 million).[84] In its second weekend the film made $25.8 million, dropping 54% but remaining in first.[85] For the third weekend, it topped the box office once again with $16.1 million, dropping 37%.[86] In its second and third weekends the film finished ahead ofThe Grinch, marking the first time where animated films reached the top two spots at the box office for two consecutive weekends.[86]
On thereview aggregator websiteRotten Tomatoes, 88% of 274 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.3/10. The website's consensus reads: "Ralph Breaks the Internet levels up on its predecessor with a funny, heartwarming sequel that expands its colorful universe while focusing on core characters and relationships."[87]Metacritic, which uses aweighted average, assigned the film a score of 71 out of 100, based on 43 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[88] Audiences polled byCinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A−" on an A+ to F scale, down from the "A" earned by the first film,[89] and those atPostTrak gave the film four stars out of five.[64]
Bilge Ebiri ofThe New York Times gave the film a positive review, saying that "somewhere amid the film's ornate imagery and deliriously irreverent humor, we might begin to realize that we're watching a terrifying, incisive satire about the ways that a life lived online makes monsters of us all".[90] Brian Lowry ofCNN said that "The colorful action should delight tykes, but the smart, media-savvy asides make it especially appealing to grownups".[91] Kerry Lengel ofThe Arizona Republic gave the film three-and-a-half stars out of five, saying "what makes the movie compelling, despite the subdued dramatic payoff, is that it is a heightened reflection of our experience—our love affair, really—with our gadgets, our apps and, yes, our brands".[92] Peter Hartlaub of theSan Francisco Chronicle gave the film three stars out of four, stating that the film is "almost always inspired in the moment" and said that "the new characters are all pretty great", though he said that the film's first third "struggles to find its focus", and felt that Felix and Calhoun's subplot "would have worked better as a pre-movie animated short".[93] Chris Bumbray ofJoBlo's Movie Emporium said that the film "is just as solid" as the first film, and said it was compared to thescience fiction filmReady Player One.[94] Bryan Bishop ofThe Verge described the film as "The Lego Movie of Disney films", stating that it "soars when it sends up the studio's own films, but its portrayal of the internet feels a little optimistic for 2018."[95]
Oliver Jones ofThe New York Observer gave the film a two-and-a-half score, saying that "Ralph Breaks the Internet is a candy coated, hard shined brick of postmodernism—a Vitamix smoothie of gags, nostalgia, product placement and Fruity Pebbles".[96]Alonso Duralde ofTheWrap said that "Within a few years, the specifics of the viral-video gags inRalph Breaks the Internet will be as dated as aTay Zonday joke".[97]Peter Bradshaw ofThe Guardian said that the "sequel to the 2012 film is somewhere betweenReady Player One andThe Emoji Movie, summoning up a zero-gravity spectacle of dazzling colours and vertiginous perspectives, a featureless and inert mashup of memes, brands, avatars, and jokes".[98]
