Conan O'Brien Joins Disney and Pixar's TOY STORY 5

Conan O'Brien Toy Story 5 has joined the cast of Disney and Pixar's upcoming sequel "Toy Story 5". He will be voicing a new character called Smarty Pants. In an Instagram video, O'Brien said: "Isn't that crazy? Legendary franchise. These films are amazing. I can't believe this!"

He also admitted that he initially asked for the role of Woody (Tom Hanks): "And I was like, 'Uh, you kinda been there and done that. You know? You'e in a bit of a rut, don't you think?' And they said, 'No, Tom Hanks, it's his role.'". He also added that he then went after the role of Buzz Lightyear, only to be told Tim Allen was already cast: "And I went, 'Guys, you gotta think outside the box'. But anyway, then they showed me this new character, Smarty Pants. It's the best character of them all. I far prefer this character. I don't even wanna play Woody or Buzz anymore, even if they beg me. I'm Smarty Pants; I love this!"

"Toy Story 5" will be released in theaters on June 19, 2026. The story follows Buzz, Woody, Jessie and the rest of the gang as they find their jobs challenged by what kids are obsessed with today - electronics! The film is directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton ("WALL-E", "Finding Nemo"), co-directed by McKenna Harris ("Elementa") and produced by Jessica Choi.

The voice cast will also feature newcomers Ernie Hudson, who takes over the late Carl Weathers' role of action figure Combat Carl, and Anna Faris in an undisclosed part. Joan Cusack is expected to reprise her role as Jessie.

O'Brien hosted this year's Oscars and has already been set to return for next year's ceremony. Currently, he can be seen hosting the HBO Max travel show "Conan O'Brien Must Go", which is heading into its third season. He will also be seen playing a supporting role in Mary Bronstein's comedy "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You", which garnered critical acclaim in its world premiere at this year's Sundance Film Festival.
