The Emoji Movie 2 (2025)

In The Emoji Movie 2, we return to Textopolis, the vibrant digital city inside a smartphone, where emojis live, work, and play. This time, Gene (T.J. Miller) and his quirky friends are back for another wild adventure, but this time, the stakes are higher than ever. After the success of their first mission, they find themselves in a new digital crisis—an urgent threat is facing the entire emoji ecosystem.

When a dangerous virus begins to spread through the app ecosystem, threatening to corrupt the very existence of the emojis, Gene, Hi-5 (Anna Faris), and a new group of emojis must band together to stop the glitch before it completely wipes out their world. Along the way, they journey through new and unexplored apps—like gaming worlds, social media platforms, and music streaming services—each filled with its own dangers and quirky characters.

The team must learn to embrace their differences, overcome their fears, and use their emoji powers in ways they never imagined. But, as the virus grows more powerful, Gene will discover that his true purpose in the emoji world may be more important than ever.
