Pixar has teased that Toy Story 5, arriving in theaters on June 19, 2026, will shift focus more heavily toward Jessie (voiced by Joan Cusack) as opposed to the earlier films where Woody or Buzz usually took the lead. Tim Allen (the voice of Buzz) has said explicitly, “It’s a lot about Jessie,” and noted that Woody and Buzz will “realign,” implying Jessie will be the main character’s story arc this time around.
