Disney has announced the return of Woody and Buzz with the release of Pixar's Toy Story 5 on June 19, 2026. This upcoming sequel aims to revitalize the beloved franchise following the lukewarm reception of the 2022 spinoff, Lightyear. Toy Story has been a staple in cinema since its debut in 1995, with the most recent installment surpassing $1 billion in box office earnings in 2019. The iconic voices of Tom Hanks as Woody and Tim Allen as Buzz Lightyear will once again grace the screen in Toy Story 5.
Alongside the Toy Story 5 announcement, Disney made several adjustments to its release calendar. Dwayne Johnson's live-action remake of Moana has been pushed back to July 10, 2026, providing space between the remake and the upcoming animated sequel, Moana 2. Additionally, fans can anticipate the Star Wars feature, The Mandalorian & Grogu, directed by Jon Favreau and starring Pedro Pascal, to hit theaters on May 22, 2026, marking a return of the Star Wars saga to the big screen.
