Toy Story is the movie that put Pixar on the map. Its success led to a sequel that was meant for home video becoming another theatrical hit. Since then, Toy Story has become one of Pixar’s key IPs. Its entries are among the best Pixar movies so far, and it is certainly its most prolific franchise with a fifth entry on the 2026 movie schedule.
