Cans of popcorn popped as cinema owners got a first look at Toy Story 5 during CinemaCon, signaling a mix of heart and high-stakes hijinks. The clip hints at a new obstacle: a digital world pulling Bonnie’s attention toward a tablet that can stitch endless group chats and nonstop play.
Woody arrives with a wiser, rougher edge—his look nods to classic Western icons, complete with a poncho. Buzz Lightyear, meanwhile, feels sidelined, and the long-standing duo locks horns over who should guide the rescue mission for their fellow toys.
Directed by Andrew Stanton, the film brings back familiar voices and personalities, with Tom Hanks and Tim Allen returning to their iconic roles. The movie is positioned as a major blockbuster, adding another chapter to a franchise that has amassed more than $3 billion at the worldwide box office.
CinemaCon previews also underscored Disney’s cinema-centric strategy, with discussions about windowing and keeping movies in theaters for an extended stretch. Toy Story 5 is slated to hit U.S. screens on June 19.
