Summary
Tom Hanks and Tim Allen said Toy Story 5 centers on a clash between toys and technology, with Woody, Buzz and Jessie confronting Lilypad, a new tablet device influencing Bonnie.
30 years after the original film, the actors said the sequel also revisits Woody and Buzz’s bond after Toy Story 4, while pushing a Jessie-led story in which the pair team up to help her and Bonnie.
Greta Lee voices Lilypad, while Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff contribute the original song “I Knew It, I Knew You,” and Randy Newman returns to score his fifth Toy Story feature.
June 19 marks the film’s theatrical debut, with Hanks and Allen framing its broader message as a plea for more imaginative play and less dependence on phones and screens.
