If you want to watch Toy Story 5 (2026), Pixar's long-awaited fifth film in the franchise that launched computer-animated cinema, this is your complete streaming guide.

What is Toy Story 5?

Toy Story 5 is a 2026 animated comedy-adventure produced by Pixar Animation Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. The film was released on June 19, 2026, with a world premiere at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on June 9, 2026.

It is directed by Andrew Stanton, a two-time Academy Award winner (Finding Nemo, WALL-E) and one of the defining creative voices of the Pixar era, co-directed by Kenna Harris. The original score is composed by Randy Newman, returning to score his fifth Toy Story film — the same composer who has written "You've Got a Friend in Me" and every subsequent score in the franchise.

Additionally, Taylor Swift contributed an original song to the film titled "I Knew It, I Knew You," released on June 5, 2026, which topped the US Billboard Hot 100.

The plot: what happens in Toy Story 5?

Set two years after the events of Toy Story 4, the fifth film returns to Bonnie's room where Woody, Buzz, and Jessie continue their toy lives. The story's central conflict arrives in the form of Lilypad (voiced by Greta Lee) — a tablet that has become Bonnie's new favorite plaything, displacing the toys from their traditional role.

Simultaneously, fifty commemorative Buzz Lightyear action figures — toys stuck in their "in-box" mode, believing they are searching for Star Command — arrive and begin causing significant chaos for the existing toy community.

The film explores what happens to toys when their child develops new interests and what the toys themselves value when their primary relationship — being loved and played with — is interrupted. These are themes the franchise has returned to with remarkable consistency: Toy Story 2 (about what toys are for when they are no longer played with), Toy Story 3 (about saying goodbye when the child grows up), and Toy Story 4 (about finding purpose beyond the child relationship).

Toy Story 5 adds a contemporary dimension to this anxiety: Lilypad the tablet represents not just a competing toy but an entirely different category of object — a screen that can do everything and requires nothing in return, the 21st-century alternative to a toy chest that requires imagination.

Andrew Stanton's return as director

Andrew Stanton's involvement is the most significant creative announcement associated with Toy Story 5. Stanton directed Toy Story 2 (1999, in a co-directing capacity), and then went on to direct Finding Nemo (2003, Academy Award for Best Animated Feature), WALL-E (2008, Academy Award for Best Animated Feature), and Finding Dory (2016). He is one of the original Pixar creative team and one of the most consistently acclaimed animators in the studio's history.

His sensibility — emotionally direct, formally meticulous, comfortable with genuine pathos alongside comedy — is perfectly calibrated for the final chapter this franchise needs. The challenge of Toy Story 5 is that Toy Story 4 was explicitly designed as a conclusion: Woody left the group to pursue a new life, and the ending felt genuinely final. Returning to that universe requires finding a story with its own reason for existing rather than simply revisiting familiar characters.

Stanton's track record with sequels — Finding Dory succeeded on its own terms by focusing on a different character's journey — suggests the approach here will be similarly structured around a new emotional question rather than a repetition of the previous films' dynamics.

Randy Newman's score and Taylor Swift's original song

Randy Newman has composed the score for every Toy Story film, and his thematic material — particularly "You've Got a Friend in Me" — is among the most instantly recognizable music in popular cinema. Returning for the fifth film, at age 80, Newman brings continuity of emotional texture that no other composer could provide.

The addition of Taylor Swift's original song "I Knew It, I Knew You" — released on June 5, 2026, which debuted at No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 — is the production's highest-profile musical addition. Swift has previous experience with film soundtracks (including her original Folklore contributions and the The Tortured Poets Department connections to various media projects), and for a Pixar film targeting the broadest possible audience, a Swift original song is an unusual but commercially logical choice.

The song's title implies narrative significance — the idea of recognizing someone or something as essential in retrospect — which fits the franchise's ongoing themes of loyalty and the permanence of connection across change.

Bad Bunny as Pizza with Sunglasses

Grammy-winning Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny makes a voice cameo as "Pizza with Sunglasses" — a new character whose description suggests the film's playful approach to the idea of what constitutes a toy in the modern imagination. Bad Bunny is the most-streamed artist on Spotify globally for four consecutive years (2020–2023), and his appearance signals the film's intent to reach an audience well beyond the nostalgic demographic that grew up with the original trilogy.

The Toy Story franchise: context for the fifth film

The Toy Story franchise began in 1995 with the first computer-animated feature film in history, produced by Pixar and directed by John Lasseter. Its release changed the entire commercial and creative trajectory of animated filmmaking and established a template — adult emotional themes rendered through animation — that the studio has refined across more than 25 features.

The franchise's box office history:

• Toy Story (1995): $361 million worldwide
• Toy Story 2 (1999): $497 million worldwide
• Toy Story 3 (2010): $1.067 billion worldwide
• Toy Story 4 (2019): $1.073 billion worldwide

Each sequel in the franchise has opened on the assumption that its audience has grown up alongside the characters, which is why the emotional weight of each film has increased with each installment. Toy Story 3's finale — widely considered one of the most effective emotional sequences in animated film history — succeeded because the audience who watched Woody and Buzz in 1995 was now the same age as Andy going to college.

Toy Story 5 carries that legacy forward. Conan O'Brien and Bad Bunny in a Pixar film is a signal that this is a franchise fully aware of its multigenerational audience and deliberately building toward it.
