Disney is unboxing more of its Toy Story 5 cast.
The studio announced Monday that Conan O’Brien has been added to the film’s voice cast as Smarty Pants, a character that is new to the franchise. Andrew Stanton is directing Toy Story 5 alongside co-director McKenna Harris, while Jessica Choi produces the film.
Toy Story 5 is set to hit theaters June 19, 2026. The Toy Story franchise launched with the original film in 1995 and features Tom Hanks as cowboy Woody and Tim Allen as space explorer Buzz Lightyear. Toy Story 4 hit theaters in 2019 and surpassed $1 billion at the global box office.
Disney CEO Bob Iger first announced Toy Story 5 in February 2023 on the heels of franchise spinoff Lightyear — which features the voice of Chris Evans as the human who inspired the toy — underperforming when it was released the summer prior.
Pixar is riding high following the massive success of Inside Out 2, which was the highest-grossing title of 2024. Next up for the company is Elio, which is also a story of space exploration and is set for theatrical release on June 20.
More to come.
