When will Toy Story 5 and Frozen 3 movies be released?

‘Toy Story 5’ and ‘Frozen 3’ are in development.

Tim Allen has confirmed he will return for Toy Story 5

Disney have confirmed sequels to the two movies, as well as a follow-up film to 2016 motion picture ‘Zootopia’, are all in the works.

Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, said in a call: “I’m so pleased to announce that we have sequels in the works from our animation studios to some of our most popular franchises – ‘Toy Story’, ‘Frozen’ and ‘Zootopia’.”

Iger also teased there would be more announcements about the sequels “soon”. Almost four years after the fourth film debuted.

He added: “We’ll have more to share about these productions soon, but this is a great example of how we’re leaning into our unrivalled brands and franchises.”

‘Toy Story’ star Tim Allen, who voices Buzz Lightyear in the film franchise, confirmed he will be reprising his role for the fifth film, and appeared to reveal Woody (Tom Hanks) will also be back.

“See ya soon Woody, you are a sad strange little man and you have my pity. And off we go to a number 5! To infinity and beyond!”

When will Toy Story 5 be released? Date film could come out in UK – will Tom Hanks and Tim Allen return

The film has only just been announced and is believed to be in pre-production, so it is not yet known when the release date will be. There have typically been long waits between instalments in the franchise with more than a decade between 2 and 3, and a further nine years until 4 was released in 2019.

It is unlikely that fans will be waiting that long for the fifth film. The production process on the Toy Story films is arduous, as every frame is individually rendered – that being said the fifth film could be ready for release in two years time. Check back here for updates on the release date of Toy Story 5.

If the fifth film takes a similar time in production then we could expect it to release in cinemas in 2028. If so, prepare for a long wait. However, the film certainly could move through its production at a faster rate and we’ll keep this page updated as soon as any more concrete information becomes available.

Frozen 3

Kristen Bell – who voices Anna in ‘Frozen’ and ‘Frozen II’ – has previously admitted she would be up for returning for a third movie in the series.

Speaking in June, she joked: “I would like to officially announce, with zero authority, ‘Frozen 3’.

“Please bear in mind I did say ‘zero authority,’ ’cause I can’t [actually announce it]. I can’t do that — I’m not in charge.

“But there could be something in the works and something maybe happening, maybe.

“I’ll keep it mysterious. But I know Idina [Menzel] recently said she would do it, and I feel like if we’re all in what are we waiting for?”

In 2019, Menzel, who voices Queen Elsa in the Disney franchise, said she would be “happy” to make multiple ‘Frozen’ films.

Just a month after the release of ‘Frozen II’, she said at the time: “I can see a ‘Frozen 3′. I can see a’ Frozen 3′, ‘4’, and ‘5’, it’s whether they want to make them. I’m happy to be involved.”
