SIAN WELBY AND JORDAN NORTH
Speaking on her role in the upcoming Disney and Pixar release, Sian Welby said,
“The characters and world of Toy Story have formed such an iconic part of so many people’s childhoods, including mine, so being part of the journey has been a dream come true!”
Jordan North shared a similar sentiment, saying,
“Being part of Toy Story 5 is a pinch‑me moment. I grew up loving these films, so getting to join the gang is pretty surreal and special.”
THE FILMS’ PREMISE
The toys are back in Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story 5, and this time it’s Toy meets Tech. Woody (voice of Tom Hanks). Buzz Lightyear (voice of Tim Allen), Jessie (voice of Joan Cusack), and the rest of the gang’s jobs are challenged. In the story, they face Lilypad (voice of Greta Lee). She is a brand-new tablet device that arrives with her own disruptive ideas about what is best for their kid, Bonnie. Consequently, will playtime ever be the same?
Toy Story 5 features direction from Academy Award winner Andrew Stanton, with Kenna Harris serving as co-director. Lindsey Collins, p.g.a., takes on the role of producer, while the script is crafted by Stanton and Harris. The film features an original score by Oscar-winning Randy Newman. He returns to score his fifth Toy Story feature.
Toy Story 5 opens only in cinemas on June 19.
