Tim Allen Finishes Voice Work for 'Toy Story 5' and Confirms Departure

Tim Allen has announced that he has completed his voice acting role in the upcoming 'Toy Story 5,' which is scheduled for release on June 19, 2026. Allen shared his heartfelt message on Twitter, expressing his love for the creators and the story, and reflecting on his years of involvement, saying, 'I love these creators and love this story and blessed to be in this wonderful space suit for so many years.' The new film will focus on Jessie, with Allen describing it as a clever story about her needing help and gathering everyone. Despite some fans feeling the franchise concluded with 'Toy Story 3,' Pixar is continuing with 'Toy Story 5,' exploring themes of technology's impact on play and childhood. Allen's departure marks the end of his long-standing role as Buzz Lightyear, though other cast members like Tom Hanks and Joan Cusack's involvement remains unconfirmed. The film's plot includes humorous scenes like Buzz dolls landing on a plane, with the story emphasizing a reflection on modern reliance on technology and its effects on traditional play.
