Although I’m a massive fan of the franchise, I can’t help but feel like Toy Story 5 is pretty unnecessary, but I would look forward to the fourth sequel much more if the overall arc were to take a specific and intriguing turn. With Toy Story 5‘s release date confirmed as June 19, 2026, there’s still a notable wait until the movie hits cinema screens. The story details so far are very sparse. While many characters could return in Toy Story 5, some comebacks would make far more sense than others.
