Tom Hanks and Tim Allen confirm we should expect all the feels in Toy Story 4

Multiple actors involved have said working on Toy Story 4 was an emotional experience for them. What should we expect from Pixar’s next installment?

If you thought Toy Story 3 was an emotional roller coaster, you might want to stock up on tissues before going to see Toy Story 4 next summer.

Tom Hanks (voice of Woody) and Tim Allen (voice of Buzz Lightyear) have both shared their experiences recording the movie’s final scene, and it sounds like Pixar has every intention of sticking with their recent tradition of making audiences cry.

“It is so emotional,” Allen said on The Breakfast Show. “It’s so funny; it’s so big, the idea they’ve come up with. I’m startled. I couldn’t even get through the last scene.”

Hanks admitted that he couldn’t even look at the crew while recording his lines.

“The way you record Toy Story,” he explained, “you’re in a room with the team that has created it. When I went in for my last day of recording, I wanted to have my back to them… I didn’t want to see them and pretended they couldn’t see me.”

While neither Hanks nor Allen went into detail about what was so difficult with this final scene, both actors have been with the franchise since the release of the first Toy Story in 1995, and have been attached to their space ranger and cowboy characters for over 20 years. Hanks has previously said that voicing Woody makes him feel like “the luckiest guy in the world.”

Very little has been said about the fourth installment in the Toy Story series, though there are rumors that the film will explore the love story between Woody and Bo Peep, the porcelain shepherdess who was notably absent from Toy Story 3, having been sold off at a yard sale. John Lasseter, who is leaving the company at the end of the year and has already stepped down as director, said the film would focus on Bo Peep.

Whether or not this is true, the movie promises to be as memorable as its predecessors.

“I don’t want to give it away,” Allen said of Toy Story 4 in the interview, “but this is an incredibly great story.”

Hanks agrees. “When I realized what they were going for,” he said, “I realized, ‘Oh, this is a moment in history.'”

Toy Story 4 will hit theaters June 21, 2019.
