The number of sequels that were released and disappointed audiences in 2024 is overwhelming, but Toy Story 5 will break the mold — and audiences’ expectations!
The Allen boasted of the script to be “really clever.”
trend in Hollywood to mindlessly continue well-established franchises just because it guarantees money, Allen’s assertion might do well for the publicity of the film.
“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.”
The actor also opened up about The film is currently set to be released on June 19, 2026, so we’d say he’s right on schedule.
“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.”
After the recording wraps up, Allen would flaunt five Toy Stories in his resume over thirty long years. So, the next question on the interview script was quite predictable — Which movie is Tim Allen’s personal favorite? That’s a hard enough question for us fans who grew up watching those, so it obviously wasn’t an easy one for Allen to answer, but he gave it his best shot,
“With Toy Story 2 and 3, I’m on a bridge. There’s nothing like Toy Story 1, though. That was such an amazing experience. It’s hard to say. I’d probably give it to Toy Story 3.”
So, Allen finds himself torn between the nostalgic charm of the original Toy Story and the emotional depth of the third film. However, we’re now buzzing with hope that Toy Story 5 will stand shoulder-to-shoulder with its predecessors. Toy Story 5 has pretty big shoes to fill since the fourth film didn’t just make a splash — it set a new standard, debuting as the biggest animated film launch ever with a staggering $244.5 million and clinching the Oscar for Best Animated Feature. Moreover, both Toy Story 3 and 4 soared past the $1 billion mark at the global box office, so we’re expecting no less from Toy Story 5‘s “clever” story.
