Jessie Takes the Spotlight
After a seven-year gap, the toybox is reopening — and it’s Jessie’s turn to lead the adventure. Woody rolls back into action to lend a hand, and yes, Buzz and the usual crew pop up too. Think familiar faces with a fresh center-of-attention energy.
A Tablet Turns Playtime Upside Down
The new wrinkle? A tablet in Bonnie’s house that slowly steals attention away from her toys. As screen time creeps in, the toys suddenly have to reckon with being played with less — a timely setup that feels very of-the-moment.
Tom Hanks Teases a Real Gut-Punch
Tom Hanks, the voice behind Woody, says there’s a scene that hits hard — one of those moments that lingers. It centers on a young girl who’s been wounded by messages from others, and she’s baffled by why it hurts. The tease suggests the movie will mix the franchise’s usual warmth with a surprisingly sharp emotional sting.
Why This One Matters
Beyond jokes and toys, the film seems intent on talking about how technology is reshaping childhood — and the fallout for the people (and toys) caught in between. Expect the familiar Toy Story blend of humor, heart, and a little bit of honest awkwardness.

Toy Story 5 lands in theaters soon — in France it’s due June 17 — so tissues and popcorn should be on standby. Director Andrew Stanton has hinted the story world could keep going after this chapter, even if he might not be the one calling the shots for future sequels.
