When the studio initially started planning for a sequel, they envisioned a direct-to-DVD follow-up for Toy Story 2, as a majority of the animators were working on A Bug's Life. Toy Story 3, released in 2010, and Toy Story 4, released in 2019, proved just how much staying power the Disney and Pixar franchise had, with each follow-up grossing over $1 billion worldwide, with the third film winning Oscars for Best Animated Film, Best Original Film and earning a Best Picture nomination, a rarity for an animated movie.Īnd now, fans are going to infinity and beyond thanks to Chris Evans' Lightyear.ġ1.
