The upcoming fifth film in the Toy Story franchise features our beloved toys facing their biggest adversary yet: technology. The newest teaser reveals a cheerful but sinister Lilypad tablet, voiced by Greta Lee, as the main antagonist.
“It’s been a hilarious and poignant journey exploring how our favorite team of legacy toys might respond to today’s world of technology, and we’re thrilled to share this first glimpse with audiences,” co-directors Andrew Stanton and Kenna Harris said.
The teaser showcases several classic characters gathered in Bonnie’s room:
Although not seen in the teaser, Conan O’Brien will voice Smarty Pants, a toilet training tech toy joining the Toy Story universe.
“Having the remarkably talented Greta Lee bring Lilypad to life — balancing a playfully antagonistic tone with humor and heart — has been incredible,” the directors added.
Toy Story 5 contrasts the classic charm of beloved toys with the challenges posed by modern technology, highlighted by the digital menace Lilypad.
