Woody (voice of Tom Hanks) has always been confident about his place in the world, and that his priority is taking care of his kid, whether that’s Andy or Bonnie. So when Bonnie’s beloved new craft-project-turned-toy, Forky (voice of Tony Hale), declares himself as “trash” and not a toy, Woody takes it upon himself to show Forky why he should embrace being a toy. But when Bonnie takes the whole gang on her family’s road trip excursion, Woody ends up on an unexpected detour that includes a reunion with his long-lost friend Bo Peep (voice of Annie Potts).

Final Toy Story 4 Poster and New TV Spot Shine a Spotlight on Bo Peep

Final Toy Story 4 Poster and New TV Spot Shine a Spotlight on Bo Peep
Toy Story 4 is on the way and Disney&#8226Pixar have released a new poster and TV spot to celebrate the upcoming release. The highly anticipated sequel doesn't hit theaters until June, but Disney has been out promoting the movie quite a bit lately while announcing the franchise will have a presence on the Disney+ streaming platform. Newcomer Forky, voiced by Tony Hale and Bo Beep, voiced by Annie Potts will receive new shorts on the upcoming streaming platform, which launches in November.

The latest Toy Story 4 trailer pits the team up against a cat, who at first doesn't look too menacing. However, it is later revealed the feline likes to tear up plush toys, which does not sit well with Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele's Ducky and Bunny characters as they learn what they're made of. It's kind of a jarring moment, but it is obviously full of humor.

The 17 Minute Toy Story 4 Clip Shared at CinemaCon Showed The Creation of Forky

Toy Story 4 is happening and this next chapter of the story will continue the journey of Woody as he learns, grows, and adapts with the world. It was explained that the first three films told his story with Andy and the third movie closed Andy’s story, but the upcoming fourth film will continue the journey of Woody and his friends.

Disney shared the first 17-minutes of the Josh Cooley-directed film with us at CinemaCon and I was very happy with what I saw. I was sucked right into the story and I wish we could have sat there and watched the whole film!

The footage starts out with a flashback of Andy playing with Woody, Buzz, and the other toys nine years ago. It’s raining outside and Rc Car is stuck in the gutter outside trying not to be carried away by the rapid waters. Woody

Disney Premieres First 17 Minutes of ‘Toy Story 4’ to Rave First Reactions at CinemaCon

Disney surprised CinemaCon by announcing it would be world premiering the first 17 minutes from its highly anticipated summer tentpole “Toy Story 4.” The company has often used the Las Vegas event to build buzz for its summer Pixar release, and this year was no exception as enthusiastic raves are already lighting up social media in response to the “Toy Story 4” footage screened.

The opening scenes of the movie focus on what happened to Bo Peep and the origin story of the movie’s new character, Forky. In the case of the former, Bo Peep was a toy owned by Andy’s sister Molly, who one day decided she no longer needed the lamp fixture which was the home for Bo Peep and her sheep. A man comes to buy the lamp and as he is taking it away, Woody runs after Bo Peep to save her. Bo Peep tells

Toy Story 4 director confirms that Mr. Potato Head will be voiced by the late Don Rickles

Although the legendary U.S. comedian passed away back in 2017, Josh Cooley – director of the upcoming Toy Story 4 – has revealed on Twitter that Don Rickles will still feature as the voice of the beloved Mr. Potato Head in the upcoming Disney-Pixar sequel.

“Some people say funny things, I say things funny.” -Don Rickles

All of his pieces may be replaceable, but his voice is not. Honored he signed on for TS4, honored he’s in TS4. pic.twitter.com/Q7cTRSQNwh

Rickles died before he was able to record his lines for Toy Story 4, so much like Mr. Potato Head himself, the filmmakers crafted a new performance using Rickles’ recordings from the first three movies, along with various video games and other projects.

The Late Don Rickles Is Still Playing Mr. Potato Head in Toy Story 4

The Late Don Rickles Is Still Playing Mr. Potato Head in Toy Story 4
Legendary comedian Don Rickles will reprise his role as Mr. Potato Head in Toy Story 4. This has been a huge question mark as we rapidly approach the sequel's release date. Rickles portrayed the iconic toy in all three prior entries in the Pixar franchise and had signed on to voice the role yet again prior to his passing in 2017. However, director Josh Cooley has confirmed that Rickles will indeed be back.

At present, the answer to this question has raised further questions. It had previously been reported that Don Rickles hadn't actually recorded any of his voice over for Toy Story 4 at the time of his passing. Plus, the movie has undergone significant rewrites and story changes since then. So it's unclear how, or in what capacity, Rickles will be utilized. In any event, Josh Cooley took to Twitter recently, sharing an image of the late comedian beside Mr.

The Late Don Rickles Will Still Voice Mr. Potato Head in Toy Story 4

Here’s some very cool and exciting news for Toy Story 4. I’ve been wondering who would replace Don Rickles as Mr. Potato Head in the film, but it turns out even though the actor and comedian passed away in 2017, they didn’t have to replace him!

Thant’s right! Director Josh Cooley has announced the voice of Mr. Potato Head will be that of Don Rickles! Now, the actor didn’t record anything for the film before he died, and while it’s not explained how they will be able to use Rickles voice, I imagine that they were able to piece together archived recordings from the first three films.

You can find the announcement below:

Trailer For “Toy Story 4” Brings Back Your Old Friends

Earlier in the week, a New Trailer dropped for Pixar’s hotly anticipated sequel Toy Story 4. Apologies for not getting to it sooner, but we’re here now. Personally, I’ve long been of two minds about this effort. On the one hand, Toy Story is my favorite animated franchise and some of the finest hours within the Pixar oeuvre. On the other hand, Toy Story 3 wrapped up the series brilliantly, with such a perfect ending it can be almost impossible to duplicate. Well, this Trailer is out and seeks to show why a new outing is necessary. You can see it at the end of the post, as you’d expect, so read on for more on Toy Story 4… The film is the latest installment in the Toy Story franchise.

Toy Story 4 Trailer Arrives: Meet the New Toys in Bonnie's Bedroom
The toys hit the road in Toy Story 4 alongside friends, new and old, foes and, of course, Forky. Filmmakers welcomed Christina Hendricks, Keanu Reeves and Ally Maki to the toy box today, revealing the three new characters they help bring to life. Disney&#8226Pixar have unveiled the full-length trailer and the final pay-off poster featuring all of these new toy additions to Bonnie's bedroom.

Among the new faces is Gabby Gabby, an adorable, talking pull-string doll from the 1950s. But unfortunately for her, a manufacturing defect in her pull-string voice box has left her sounding anything but adorable. She has spent more than 60 years forgotten in the depths of a jam-packed antique store, her only companions are a band of voiceless ventriloquist dummies. Gabby Gabby knows someone will want her if only she can find a working voice box to repair hers.

Gabby Gabby is voiced by Christina Hendricks.
