Toy Story 5 sees all our favorite toys<\/a> facing their biggest challenge yet<\/a>. Not older kids or evil toys. It\u2019s a thing that can never be beaten. Something that never stops. This time, Buzz, Woody, and the gang have to face off with progress.<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019re just a few weeks out from seeing Toy Story 5, the latest film in Pixar\u2019s marquee franchise, this time from Oscar-winning director Andrew Stanton<\/a>. It sees Buzz, Woody, Jesse, and the rest facing an existential crisis when their owner, Bonnie, gets a new tablet called a Lilypad. How can a bunch of old, ragged, inanimate toys compete with infinite technology? The latest trailer shows a little bit more.<\/p>\n

In addition to the trailer\u2019s news of tickets being on sale now, Disney also announced that Bad Bunny is voicing a character named \u201cPizza with Sunglasses.\u201d He\u2019s described as \u201ceffortlessly cool and mysterious\u201d and \u201ca member of a small but mighty community of forgotten toys that live in an abandoned backyard shed.\u201d Disney also announced that Avengers: Endgame star and host of The Traitors, Alan Cumming, is adding a new voice. He\u2019s Evil Bullseye, \u201cBullseye\u2019s playtime alter ego.\u201d Those new additions to the already incredible voice cast just make us more excited to see what the toys are up to this time around.<\/p>\n

More than anything, though, Toy Story 5 will hopefully remind audiences that movies directed at younger audiences can be about something. Make us feel something. They don\u2019t have to be mindless and harmless. They can challenge us, ask questions, and make us laugh and cry while also having a great time. Pixar is the king of that, and if a new Toy Story can\u2019t do it, we\u2019re doomed.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll have more on the return of Woody, Buzz, Jesse, Forky, Ham, Rex, Slinky, and the rest when Toy Story 5 comes to theaters June 19. Are you going to check it out?<\/p>\n
