D23 2015: ‘Toy Story 4’ Poster & Details Revealed

Looks like the Disney D23 Fan Expo is really blowing up today! With the recently announced/confirmed Incredibles 2, we were given another treat! Toy Story 4 has been announced, a poster revealed and story arc laid out.

There have been some loose details floating around about what you could expect from the fourth installment in the Toy Story franchise. Pixar president Jim Morris was quoted in March saying

The third movie ended in a beautiful way and completed a trilogy. I think this movie is not part of this trilogy. It is a separate story, which in turn I do not know if will be continued. Never begin a project with that in mind. It is not a continuation of the end of the story of Toy Story 3.Temporarily it is, but it will be a love story. It will be a romantic comedy. It will not put much focus on the interaction between the characters and children. I think it will be a very good movie.

That lead fans to speculate as to what on earth could come from toys falling in love. Well, a nicely timed Tweet from ABC’s Good Morning America kind of nails down what the plot is going to be about.

It will be interesting to see what Pixar does with the Bo Peep character. She has been relegated to scenery in Toy Story 2 and didn’t even appear in Toy Story 3. 

Toy Story 4 is slated to hit theaters June 16th, 2017
