While we knew Toy Story 5 was set to come out on June 19th, 2026 and would be directed by Andrew Stanton, but now we know that Andrew Stanton is also writing the new film! As for the storyline, we now know that the toys will have to go head to head with electronics, making their jobs harder than ever — it’s always been their job to be there for the kids.
Pixar also announced a new film for 2026! It’s called Hoppers and will star Jon Hamm, Bobby Moynihan, and Piper Curda. Those are all the details we have so far, but we’re looking forward to hearing more about it in the future.

We also got some news about Pixar’s Elio, which was originally set to release in 2024, but was pushed back to June 13th, 2025. The film follows Elio, “an underdog with an active imagination, finds himself inadvertently beamed up to the Communiverse, an interplanetary organization with representatives from galaxies far and wide. Mistakenly identified as Earth’s ambassador to the rest of the universe, he starts to form new bonds with eccentric aliens while discovering who he’s truly meant to be.”
The trailer for Pixar’s series called Win or Lose was also released! The show will become available on December 6th — According to Disney, “the intertwined stories of eight different characters as they each prepare for their big championship softball game. The series reveals what it actually feels like to be in the shoes of each character—the insecure kids, their helicopter parents, even a lovesick umpire—with incredibly funny, very emotional and uniquely animated perspectives. Directed, written and executive produced by Carrie Hobson and Michael Yates, and produced David Lally.”
Frozen fans were also thrilled to hear an update on Frozen 3 and Frozen 4! It was confirmed that Frozen 3 will be released on November 24th, 2027, and Frozen 4 was confirmed as well! Disney also revealed that a filmed version of the Frozen Broadway musical will arrive on Disney+ in 2025!

Enough with all the sequels! We got a few original ideas but everything else is sequels, sequels, turn it into a broadway show, sequels…
My what a stunning lack of originality. No wonder their movie division is doing badly.
Sequels, “re-boots,” re-hashes again and again and again. Walt is truly rolllllllling.
