Toy Story 4 is an upcoming 2018 American 3D computer-animated comedy film, and the fourth installment in the Toy Story series. It is in production by Pixar Animation Studios, and will be released by Walt Disney Pictures. Directed by John Lasseter and co-directed by Josh Cooley, the story was conceived by the writing team on the original Toy Story (1995): Lasseter, Pete Docter, Andrew Stanton and Lee Unkrich.[1] The film is set to be released on June 15, 2018.

The plot will focus on the toys Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and their friends after their former owner, Andy, gave them to a young girl, Bonnie.[2] The story will be the gang helping Woody reunite with Bo Peep, who was given away before the events of Toy Story 3 (2010).

Plot

Woody (Tom Hanks) and Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) set out to find Woody's long-lost love interest, Bo Peep.

Voice cast

Production

In a 2010 interview, Lee Unkrich initially stated that a fourth Toy Story film was not being planned. "Well, we don't have any plans for Toy Story 4," Unkrich said. "I'm flattered that people ask about it—it reminds me how much people love the characters, but it was really important to me with this film that we not just create another sequel, that it not just be another appendage coming off of the other two." Unkrich went on to say, "there may be opportunities for Woody and Buzz in the future, but we don't have any plans for anything right now."[8] It was also reported that Hanks and Allen were signed on for a fourth Toy Story film if Pixar ever decided to produce one.[4] In a BBC interview in 2011, Hanks said that he believed Pixar was working on a sequel.[9] Disney denied the rumors saying, "nothing is official."[10]

Toy Story 4 was officially announced by Disney during an investor's call on November 6, 2014.[11] John Lasseter will return to direct, while the screenplay will be written by Rashida Jones and Will McCormack from a story by Lasseter, Pete Docter, Andrew Stanton and Unkrich. Galyn Susman will produce.[12][13] Lasseter has stated that Pixar decided to produce the sequel because of their "pure passion" for the series.[2] Lasseter has hinted that Toy Story 4 will be a love story.[14] According to Lasseter, "Toy Story 3 ended Woody and Buzz’s story with Andy so perfectly that for a long time, we never even talked about doing another Toy Story movie. But when Andrew, Pete, Lee and I came up with this new idea, I just could not stop thinking about it. It was so exciting to me, I knew we had to make this movie—and I wanted to direct it myself."[15] In March 2015, Pixar president Jim Morris stated that the film will not be a continuation of the third film but will instead be a stand-alone sequel.[16][17] The same month, Variety revealed that Josh Cooley, the head of story on Pixar's Inside Out, had been named the co-director of Toy Story 4.[18] Around the same time, Lasseter revealed that the fourth film had been such a closely held secret at Pixar that even Morris and Edwin Catmull (president of both Pixar and Disney Animation, to whom Morris reports) did not know it was being discussed until Stanton had already finished a polished treatment.[19]

In August 2015 at the D23 Expo, Lasseter said that the film would focus on the romance between Woody and Bo Peep and the journey Woody and Buzz go on to find her.[20] In May 2016, Hanks confirmed that he had finished his first stint in dubbing for his character.[3][21]

Release

The film was originally scheduled for theatrical release on June 16, 2017,[11] but in October 2015, the release date was delayed to June 15, 2018, allowing Pixar to give the original release date to Cars 3.[22]
