The toys are back for another adventure on the big screen.
The fifth installment of the beloved Pixar classic is set to follow Buzz Lightyear, Woody and Jessie and more as owner Bonnie struggles with making friends in the real world, receiving a smart device from her parents. Joan Cusack, who voices Jessie in the film, reflected on Toy Story 5’s message during an April interview with Entertainment Weekly.
“I know every parent in the United States worries about their kids. When do you get them involved in tech? What does that do to their brains?” Cusack said. “And that’s what this movie’s about. It’s about humanity and playing and loyalty — and it makes me cry.”

Who Is Cast In ‘Toy Story 5’?
The film will star familiar toys Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), Jessie (Cusack) and the rest of the group facing off against Lilypad (Greta Lee), a children’s tablet given to Bonnie (Scarlett Spears). Disney announced in April that Bad Bunny has a “voice cameo” in Toy Story 5, voicing a toy who looks like a slice of pizza wearing sunglasses.
“Effortlessly cool and mysterious, Pizza with Sunglasses is a member of a small but mighty community of forgotten toys that live in an abandoned backyard shed,” a release from Disney read.
Alan Cumming also joined the ensemble as Evil Bullseye. “While Woody’s trusty steed still lacks the power of speech in the world of Toy Story, Cumming provides Bullseye’s voice during a funny playtime sequence in the film,” the release explained.
