Tim Allen shares exciting new Toy Story 5 plot details, teasing a Jessie-focused story and a stunning Buzz Lightyear opening scene.

Tim Allen Speaks About “Toy Story 5”

In an interview with WIVB, he said, “I can tell you that it’s a lot about Jessie,” he said. “Tom [Hanks] and I do — Woody and I — do realign. And there’s an unbelievable opening scene with Buzz Lightyears. I can give you that, but I can’t give you much more.”
Back in December 2024, Allen teased some information about “Toy Story 5.” He told Collider: “Well, I don’t know what I’m supposed to say. Yes, I just did the first five-hour session for Buzz, probably a week ago,” Allen says. “It’s really, really weird to get back in it. I can’t tell you anything.”
“It’s a very, very clever story. Do you wanna do five of these? I don’t really believe it’s about the money. I’m sure they want it to be a success, but that’s not why they did it. Had they not come up with a brilliant script, they wouldn’t have done it and they wouldn’t have called me and Tom [Hanks]. It’s really clever.
In that interview, he also said, “It was really a struggle to get, and then maybe two hours in, I was doing Buzz. I’m so blessed to be Buzz Lightyear, to be honest. It’s gonna be fun. I think we’re a year out. I’ve gotten up to the third act. We’ll do the third act. And then, we’ll go back and clean it. And then, I’ll do it about five more times. It’s a really good story, guys. It’s really good.”
“Toy Story 5”

“Toy Story 5” continues Pixar’s franchise, set to bring Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and their friends back to the big screen. While specific plot details remain under wraps, fans are eager to see where the story goes following the conclusion of “Toy Story 4,” which saw Woody part ways with Buzz and the rest of the gang to explore life as a ‘lost toy’ with Bo Peep. This fifth installment is expected to explore new adventures and themes of growth, change, and friendship, maintaining the emotional depth and humor the series is known for.
Pixar has hinted that “Toy Story 5” will offer a fresh perspective while honoring the legacy of the original characters. It will likely introduce new toys and environments, possibly expanding beyond the familiar settings of Andy’s room and Bonnie’s house. With technology advancements and Pixar’s signature storytelling, fans can expect top-tier animation and heartfelt moments.
The return of voice actors like Tom Hanks (Woody) and Tim Allen (Buzz Lightyear) is confirmed, generating even more excitement. If “Toy Story 5” can balance nostalgia with a compelling new narrative, it has the potential to resonate with both longtime fans and new audiences.
Set for a June 19, 2026, release, “Toy Story” stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of these iconic characters and the universal themes they represent—love, loyalty, and the journey of finding one’s place in the world.
