According to Lightyear, Molly was born in 1994. (Andy's sixth birthday was in 1995 when Molly was one and she was 13 by the time of Toy Story 3, which was set in 2007 rather than it's release year 2010.)
Toy Story 4, the fourth feature film in the franchise, was released on June 21, 2019. Taking place not long after Toy Story 3, the story involves Woody, Buzz, and the other toys living well with their new owner Bonnie.
In the film, Andy made an appearance in the flashbacks as a kid that take places between the events of Toy Story 2 and Toy Story 3. His design as a child is different due to the advancements in animation technology at the time, although his teenage design remains the same.
On a Disney earnings call in April 2024, Bob Iger announced that Toy Story 5 had received a release date and would be arriving to theaters on June 19, 2026. The Disney release calendar does tend to change, however, so we could see that date move in the coming years.
Toy Story 5 is officially coming our way in 2026, marking a surprise return of Woody and Buzz into our lives. The fifth movie was confirmed in February 2023 alongside Frozen 3 and Zootopia 2, with Disney later announcing its 2026 release date in April 2024.
In Toy Story 3, Andy Davis (Morris), now 17 years old, is going to college. Woody (Hanks), Buzz Lightyear (Allen), and the other toys are accidentally donated to Sunnyside Daycare, a daycare center, by Andy's mother (Metcalf), and the toys must decide where their loyalties lie.
Woody is a cowboy ragdoll, based on the main character “Woody Pride” from the 1950s television show “Woody's Roundup.” In Toy Story 4, Woody states he was made in the late 1950s. However, the Toy Story series is still set in the 2000s as of now, making Woody about 50 years old in the Toy Story Universe.
In the third movie, Andy is no longer a child. He's coming of age and about to go to college. Andy plans to put all his toys in a box and leave them forgotten and forsaken in the attic. But Woody is not bound to the attic.
Mr. Potato Head appeared in Toy Story 4 (2019). However, Rickles died in 2017 due to kidney failure, and did not record any lines for him for the film. With permission from Rickles's family, Pixar used unreleased lines that Rickles recorded in previous Toy Story films for his final performance as the character.
Historians trace the Scythians as far back as the 8th century BCE. That would be almost 3,000 years ago, making Andy very old. The empire collapsed at the hands of the Sarmatians before 200 CE. Theron's Andy is, therefore, anywhere from 3,000 to about 1,800 years old.
Andy's dad never appears in any of the Toy Story films, and his absence is never addressed. Several theories sprung up to explain that, including some in which Andy's parents got divorced. One theory suggests Andy's dad died before Toy Story 1, after a childhood battle with polio.
Buzz Lightyear's age is not specified in Toy Story 4. However, as a toy, he is not subject to the aging process like humans. He remains the same age and in the same physical condition throughout the entire series of movies. So, whether Buzz is "old" or "young" is really a matter of perspective.
Toy Story was released in 1995, which was followed by Toy Story 2 in 99. This was followed by a Buzz Lightyear movie with its own TV show in 2000, but the 3rd installment of the original Toy Story series wouldn't be released until 10 years later.
Disney will release Pixar's Toy Story 5 on June 19, 2026, the studio announced Friday. Disney CEO Bob Iger first announced Toy Story 5 in February 2023, with the sequel an attempt to return to form for the franchise after the disappointing performance of the 2022 spinoff, Lightyear, which voice starred Chris Evans.
Premise. Director Andrew Stanton revealed that this would be the last Toy story as Woody will end up in a junkyard after being left at the playground of Bonnie's Middle School. The full events have not been concluded, but Stanton did confirm that Woody would be working with other scrapped toys and new friends to escape ...
Announced amid a slew of other major releases in February 2024, Disney has confirmed that their long-awaited Zootopia sequel will be arriving on November 26th, 2025.
