Well, well, well. What do we have here? 😉
It seems like production on “Toy Story 4” has officially begun because Academy Award winner Tom Hanks confirmed that he is already in the process of recording his voiceover as Sheriff Woody.
During an interview with the host of “The Graham Norton Show”, the actor confirmed that he will return to the 4th “Toy Story” film to voice Woody.
He told Norton:
We’re now recording “Toy Story 4”. so we’re doing that and it will be out in 2018, so it takes a long time.
“We are working on it right now. I have a recording session on 2nd December”, he added.
Disney Chief Creative Officer (CEO) and director John Lasseter confirmed the plot for “Toy Story 4“, revealing that they will now focus on the relationship between Woody and his love interest, Bo Peep.
During Disney‘s D23 Expo, Lasseter confirmed that the 4th “Toy Story” movie will “be a love story” between Woody and Bo Peep. “At Pixar and at Disney, we only make sequels if we come up with a story that’s as good or better than the original. That’s our rule. We don’t do things just to print money,” he added.
Lasseter will return to direct alongside Josh Cooley. Actors-turned-screenwriters Rashida Jones and Will McCormack, who previously penned and starred in “Celeste and Jesse Forever”, will be penning the script for “Toy Story 4”. They’re working from a story idea by Lasseter, Andrew Stanton, Pete Docter, and Lee Unkrich. Pixar’s Galyn Susman will produce.
Hanks will also be joining other voice cast members which include Patricia Arquette, Bonnie Hunt, and Joan Cusack. Comedy legend Tim Allen will also return to reprise his voice role as Buzz Lightyear.
