Woody, Buzz and Jessie are back — and there’s a high-tech new toy in town.
On Tuesday, Nov. 11, the beloved toys returned for more fun in Disney’s first teaser trailer for Toy Story 5.
The film, which is set to hit theaters in June 2026, will come seven years after the beloved Pixar franchise’s last sequel debuted in 2019.
In the first footage, a new character is introduced: Lilypad, a high-tech, frog-shaped smart tablet voiced by Greta Lee “that makes Buzz, Woody, Jessie and the rest of the gang’s jobs exponentially harder when they go head to head with the all-new threat to playtime,” per a synopsis.

Tom Hanks returns as Woody, Tim Allen is back as Buzz Lightyear and Joan Cusack reprises her role as Jessie. Tony Hale also returns as Forky, and Conan O’Brien joins the cast as the “toilet-training tech toy Smarty Pants.”
Director Andrew Stanton (WALL-E, Finding Nemo) and co-director Kenna Harris said in a statement, “It’s been a hilarious and poignant journey exploring how our favorite team of legacy toys might respond to today’s world of technology, and we’re thrilled to share this first glimpse with audiences.”

They added, “Having the remarkably talented Greta Lee bring Lilypad to life — balancing a playfully antagonistic tone with humor and heart — has been incredible.”
During Disney’s D23 expo in August 2024, Pixar shared details about what’s next for Buzz, Woody and their toy friends.
The first Toy Story launched 30 years ago in 1995, with a second film debuting in 1999. Toy Story 3 was released in 2010, followed by a fourth in 2019.
Toy Story 5 is in theaters June 19.
