Toy Story 5 announced by Pixar as release year for sequel revealed

Toy Story 5 has been announced by Pixar, as the release year for the sequel has been revealed.

The news came at this year's D23 expo in California, in which Disney is laying out its entertainment plan for the coming couple of years.

Making the announcement tonight (10 August), it was confirmed Toy Story 5 will see the toys 'go head to head with what kids are obsessed with today', which is of course, 'electronics'.

Yep, the new film will be all about 'toy meets tech', with the first look showing the toys looking on sadly as a kid sits with an iPad looking device under a blanket.

Absolutely buzzing with the news, users took to X to say: "Whaattt flash back to my best years Lfg."

Others wrote: "This is amazing."

However, some were a little torn about the idea of another Toy Story as one put: "I'm confused? Woody stayed at the fair with Bo Peep right? How is he back with them."

Another concurred, chiming in to say: "Where's Bo Peep? I thought Woody abandoned his friends to be with her."

Toy Story 4 ends with Woody leaving the other toys to be with Little Bo Peep.

This comes after Toy Story 3 also ended with Andy donating his toys to a young girl, leaving many fans wondering how there can have been two full films after these final endings.
