Toy Story's valiant crew of toys has faced formidable villains in their first four films. Sid and his penchant for mutilating toys got Toy Story antagonists off to a strong start, while Toy Story 3's Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear cemented himself as one of Pixar's most evil characters thanks to his daycare reign of terror.
But in the upcoming Toy Story 5, directed by Andrew Stanton and co-directed by Kenna Harris, the toys may just face their biggest threat yet: technology.
The Toy Story 5 teaser reveals that a new gift has arrived for young Bonnie Anderson. It's a Lilypad, a frog-themed smart tablet that strikes fear into the hearts of Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks), Buzz Lightyear (voiced by Tim Allen), and every other toy who lays eyes on it. And who can blame them? Their beloved child is about to become an iPad kid, and where will that leave the non-high-tech toys?
Lilypad is voiced by Past Lives actor Greta Lee, while Joan Cusack and Tony Hale return to voice Jessie and Forky, respectively. At this year's Destination D23, Pixar also revealed that Conan O'Brien would be voicing Smarty Pants, a potty training toy.
Attendees of Destination D23 got to see the film's opening scene, in which an army of Buzz Lightyears stuck in a malfunctioning play mode wash up on a deserted island. Apparently, they will also be antagonists in the film alongside Lilypad. How will it all tie together? We'll have to wait until next summer to find out.
Toy Story 5 hits theaters June 19, 2026.
