Tom Hanks confirms Toy Story 5 recording has begun with behind-the-scenes photo
Hanks, who has voiced the iconic cowboy Woody since the original Toy Story film in 1995, did not provide a caption with the image, but the gesture alone was enough to excite fans and confirm that the project is moving forward. His post quickly gained traction online, with many expressing excitement about the return of the franchise and what lies ahead for its characters.
Although Disney has not released plot details or an official release date for Toy Story 5, the studio previously confirmed that the film was in development. The announcement came as part of a broader update on Pixar's upcoming slate, which also includes sequels to other fan-favorite properties.
The last installment, Toy Story 4, was released in 2019 and concluded with Woody parting ways with Buzz Lightyear and the rest of the gang, raising questions about the direction a fifth movie might take. Whether the new film continues Woody's solo journey or reunites him with his old friends remains to be seen.
As production progresses, fans can expect more updates from the cast and creative team. For now, Hanks' image offers the first concrete sign that the next chapter in the Toy Story saga is officially underway.
Further information, including casting, storyline details, and release timing, is expected to be announced by Disney and Pixar in the coming months.

Conor McGregor seen again with mystery woman after beach kiss after Dee Devlin's response
Former UFC fighter Conor McGregor has been spotted once again with the mystery woman he was previously seen kissing on a beach, just days after his fiancée Dee Devlin posted a low-key birthday message in response to the controversy. -Backgrid As reported by The Sun, McGregor was seen dining with the same woman at Padrino's Cuban Restaurant in Florida on July 13, during his 37th birthday celebrations. McGregor, wearing a bright turquoise outfit and trilby hat, and the woman, dressed in a navy top and jeans, appeared together for the meal. However, they left the restaurant separately just a few moments apart. The sighting followed the release of photos showing McGregor kissing the woman on a beach, prompting speculation about the nature of their relationship — particularly given his long-time engagement to Devlin. The couple, together for over 16 years, got engaged in 2020. Devlin, who has stood by McGregor through past legal battles, has not addressed the situation publicly, but shared a birthday post on her private Instagram story, writing: 'Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile.' The controversy deepened when rapper Azealia Banks leaked explicit images of McGregor on social media, alleging he had sent them to her via direct message on X (formerly Twitter). While McGregor issued a response to Banks' claims, he has not commented on the identity of the woman or the repeated sightings. McGregor previously faced legal scrutiny in a 2023 trial in Ireland, where he was found liable for sexually assaulting a woman in a Dublin hotel in 2018. Devlin publicly supported him throughout the proceedings. Neither McGregor nor Devlin have made further statements about the recent events, but the second public appearance with the mystery woman has continued to fuel speculation.
