Disney will release Pixar's Toy Story 5 on June 19, 2026, the studio announced Friday.

Among those that were close to playing Kens were Emmy Award-winning SNL comedian Bowen Yang, Schitt's Creek and The Idol actor Dan Levy, as well as Dear Evan Hansen star Ben Platt. “They were really bummed they couldn't do it,” the film's casting director Allison Jones told Vanity Fair.
In an interview with Extra TV, Robbie said, "Ryan was our dream choice for this role." She then revealed that Gerwig, writer and director of the upcoming movie based on the iconic doll, actually wrote Gosling's name into the script.
Barbie was childfree. She was invented to be that way. Her creator, Ruth Handler, way back in 1959, was disheartened to find that the only dolls her own daughter could play with were baby dolls.
