Allen Told That A Toy Story 5 Was “going to happen”
Speaking to Fallon, Tim Allen has now revealed that a fifth Toy Story is on the horizon.
“Bob Iger, head of Disney, said it was on and actually said it was going to happen”, stated Allen. “They have reached out to Tom and I to reprise the roles. They’re not saying anything about it… You wonder if four was too many. Is five going to be too much?”.
Allen continued, “According to the scuttlebutt, the writer that’s doing it wrote one of the better ones and said, ‘If I didn’t get this right, I wouldn’t do it.’ It could be a very, very interesting way to reunite it”.
This comes a matter of months after Disney Pixar’s Chief Executive, Pete Docter, had announced that Woody and Buzz Lightyear would be returning for a fifth edition of the Toy Story franchise.
A release date has for Toy Story 5 has yet to be announced at the time of writing.
To Infinity and Beyond!
