Exciting News from D23 Brasil: Toy Story 5 Revealed! 🎉

Celebrating 30 Years of Toy Story Magic ✨

Hey there, Toy Story fans! Can you believe it’s been 30 years since the first Toy Story film graced our screens? Time flies when you’re having fun with Woody, Buzz, and the whole gang! To honor this incredible milestone, Pixar Animation Studios hosted a spectacular panel at D23 Brasil, showcasing exciting updates about Toy Story 5. Let’s dive into the details!

Meet the Team Behind the Magic 🎨

The panel featured some big names from Pixar, with producer Jonas Rivera leading the discussion. He has been with Pixar since he was an intern, which is super cool! Rivera chatted with Brazilian host Carol Moreira and Mari Palma, sharing his journey with Toy Story and what makes the franchise so special.

Rivera reflected on his early days at Pixar: “I was just thrilled to have a job; I still remember my second day vividly. I was the ‘newbie’ in the company, and they showed me the very first scene of the film, the birthday scene—I almost cried!” How heartwarming is that? 🥹

Building on a Legacy ❤️

During the panel, Rivera emphasized how everyone at Pixar contributes to the storytelling process. He mentioned that the sequels are carefully crafted to continue the characters’ journeys, rather than merely being about continuity. “The most important thing with sequels is to revisit old characters while also introducing new ones,” he explained.

Brazilian Talent in Toy Story 🌍

Excitingly, two talented Brazilian animators also took the stage. Priscilla Vertamatti, a long-time Disney fan, landed an internship at Pixar in 2012, and she not only contributed to Toy Story but also animated *Inside Out 2* in 2015. How awesome!

Then there’s Cláudio de Oliveira, known for his work on Forky from *Toy Story 4*. He shared how he approached creating the character, highlighting the creativity that goes into even the simplest designs. “We can be very creative with what little we have,” he said, citing the word “Trash” as Forky’s most frequently used line, showcasing how versatile the character can be.

Cláudio even brought a Forky prototype to show the audience. How fun is that? And he proudly mentioned how important it is to incorporate Brazilian warmth and flair into his work. We love that!

What’s New with Toy Story 5? 📽️

As the panel wrapped up, Rivera teased some details about Toy Story 5, set to hit theaters in 2026 (how thrilling!). “Everyone will be back,” he assured fans, making it clear that the beloved characters will continue their adventures.

Rivera elaborated on the themes of the upcoming film, saying it will focus on how toys are there for children when they need them, while also tackling the competition for kids’ attention due to technology. Oh, the world has changed a lot since 1995!

The best part? Rivera revealed a stunning sneak peek image from the film! It showed a bunch of Buzz Lightyear toys on the beach, emerging from a container. Just look at that creativity! 🌊🔫
