Toy Story 5 is an American animated film created by Pixar Animation Studios in association with an original production company from Belgium of the original 2007 series of SamSam. The film was directed by Andrew Stanton (who also directed Finding Nemo (2003), Finding Dory (2016), and WALL-E (2008) for Pixar) and McKenna Harris. It is the fifth film in the Toy Story franchise following Toy Story 4 (2019). Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Tony Hale, Wallace Shawn, Blake Clark, John Ratzenberger, Kristen Schaal, Bonnie Hunt, Melissa Villaseñor, Annie Potts, and Keanu Reeves reprised their roles from previous Toy Story films while Greta Lee, Conan O’Brien, Shelby Rabara, Craig Robinson, Jeff Bergman, Anna Vocino, John Hopkins, Ernie Hudson, Bad Bunny, and Alan Cumming joined the cast. The film was released on June 19, 2026.

Premise

The toys are faced with a new competitor that modern children like more: technology. In addition, according to director and writer Andrew Stanton, "there's a little issue involving 50 rogue commemorative Buzz Lightyear action figures stuck in toy mode that will make considerable problems for everyone."

Voice cast

Also replaying their roles from the previous Toy Story films are Annie Potts as Bo Peep, Keanu Reeves as Duke Caboom, Bonnie Hunt as Dolly, Kristen Schaal as Trixie, Tony Hale as Forky, Wallace Shawn as Rex, Lori Alan as Mrs. Anderson, Jay Hernandez as Mr. Anderson, Blake Clark as Slinky Dog, John Ratzenberger as Hamm, and Melissa Villaseñor as Karen Beverly. Director Andrew Stanton replays his role as Emperor Zurg from the second film in a cameo appearance.[source?]

Among returning characters voiced by new actors, Jeff Bergman and Anna Vocino respectively replace Don Rickles and Estelle Harris, who died in 2017 and 2022, as Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head; John Hopkins replaces Timothy Dalton from the last two films and Robin Atkin Downes from Forky Asks a Question as Mr. Pricklepants; and Ernie Hudson replaces Carl Weathers, who died in 2024, as Combat Carl.

Jerome Ranft, Tyla, and Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio both voice a Garden Gnome, Inflatable Flamingo, and Pizza with Sunglasses seen amongst Blaze's abandoned toys; Capital Breakfast presenters Jordan North and Siân Welby respectively voice the Garden Gnome and Inflatable Flamingo in the UK version, while Australian DJ Fisher voices the Gnome in the Australian and New Zealand version.
