🔗 Share this article The Fifth Toy Story Film Teaser Pits Woody and Buzz Versus a Digital Device Exactly 30 anniversary since the original Toy Story movie was released, establishing Pixar as a leading animation studio and introducing viewers to iconic characters like Woody (Tom Hanks) and Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), who are now household names. In 2026, the next chapter is set to arrive. The initial preview for Toy Story 5 landed this week, offering a glimpse into the plot but keeping viewers curious how it will resolve the ending of Toy Story 4. Bonnie's New Toy: A Frog-Shaped Tablet Frightens the Gang The preview reveals the young girl — who inherited the toy collection when he grew up — receiving a brand new plaything, one that terrifies Woody, Buzz, and the crew. Bonnie acquires her first tablet computer, and she is excited about it. Presumably, the amphibian-inspired device will animate just like Bonnie's other toys. Still, the toys seem to view it as a danger intending to supplant them, which it probably is. Woody's Return: Mysteries from Toy Story 4 An element the teaser avoids is why the sheriff is returned with his companions in Bonnie's room. The finale of Toy Story 4 depicted him embark on a new adventure with Bo Peep (Annie Potts), journeying with a fair and helping prize toys locate loving owners. Certainly, the filmmakers will explain the consequences of Toy Story 4 in the film. Witnessing him appear in Bonnie's room unexpectedly is somewhat puzzling, however. It also raises questions whether his partner will have come back with him. And what about the stuntman toy (the star)? Continuity from the Previous Film Fortunately, some elements are carrying over from the prior film. The final act Woody did before setting off for his new life was hand over his sheriff badge to Jessie (the voice actor), entrusting her in charge of the toy domain. In the teaser shows the badge attached to her outfit. It is hoped she is still the driving force among the group. Toy Story 5 debuts on June 19, 2026.
