Seven years after its last installment, Toy Story 5 is almost ours. This time, the toys take on the world of tech, asking whether the two can co-exist in the lives of little kids, or whether tech automatically wins out.
Our new “villain” comes in the form of Lilypad (Greta Lee), a kid-friendly tablet convinced that she’s doing the best by the gang’s new kid, Bonnie.
We do have a release date for it, with Jessie (Joan Cusack), Buzz (Tim Allen) and Woody (Tom Hanks) heading to cinemas worldwide on June 19. But what about the new movie hitting one of the best streaming services around, Disney+?
Does Toy Story 5 have a Disney+ release date yet?
Watch On
As I’ve said, the theatrical release date of Toy Story 5 is June 16, so it’ll be a while before it’s released on Disney+.
When might that be? I have no insider information, but my best guess is it’ll drop in early October.
But why then? Typically, Disney releases its first-party films on its primary streamer around three months after they launch in theaters.
Some have come to the service earlier or later than anticipated, but that’s usually the result of them underperforming at the global box office (which could lead to an earlier streaming release), or if they are still making money via ticket sales (so they’re left in theaters for longer).
It’s very likely for Toy Story 5 to do well in cinemas, so a longer theatrical release window feels likely — so I’m going with four months, and therefore early-mid October.
How long is Toy Story 5?
Toy Story 5 has an official runtime of 1 hour and 42 minutes. This makes it the second-longest movie in the entire franchise, sitting just one minute behind Toy Story 3 (1 hour and 43 minutes).
It’s not yet clear if the new movie will have a post-credits scene included in this, but given that it’s a Disney movie, my advice is to keep your eyes peeled.
