When is Toy Story 4 released in cinemas? What's it about? Is there a trailer?
You’re never too old to play with toys – or to watch a movie about them. Here’s everything you need to know about Woody and Buzz’s upcoming quest
Nine years after Andy left for college, the toy box is being opened once more in Toy Story 4. Sheriff Woody and Buzz Lightyear of Star Command are setting off on a quest to find the cowboy’s lost love – but a fourth instalment was not always a sure deal. “We made a pinky promise to each other that we would not make another Toy Story unless we found a story that was worthy,” said Disney Chief Creative Officer John Lasseter. Thank goodness they found one. Here’s everything you need to know about the toys’ next grand adventure. When is Toy Story 4 released in UK cinemas? The film will be released in both the UK and US on Friday 21st June 2019. Luckily, this means it will be easier to avoid spoilers! Originally, the release was set for June of 2017, but production has taken far longer than expected. Three-quarters of the script was scrapped when Rashida Jones and Will McCormack withdrew from their screenwriting gig in November of 2017.

The third film in the Toy Story franchise sees 17-year-old Andy preparing to leave for college. While packing, his mother accidentally donates Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, and the rest of his toys to a day care centre. There, Woody and friends must plan their escape from, not only hyperactive toddlers, but also a tyrannical teddy bear who holds them prisoner. The film ends with Andy choosing to gift his toys to six-year-old Bonnie Anderson, thus giving them all a renewed purpose. What's the plot of Toy Story 4? The official synopsis for the film reads: Woody has always been confident about his place in the world and that his priority is taking care of his kid, whether that’s Andy or Bonnie. But when Bonnie adds a reluctant new toy called “Forky” to her room, a road trip adventure alongside old and new friends will show Woody how big the world can be for a toy. In Toy Story 4, our favourite “child’s playthings” are back. Well, not all of them. In between Toy Story 2 and Toy Story 3, Woody’s romantic interest Bo Peep was sold at a yard sale. The fourth instalment will centre around his search for her, accompanied by Buzz Lightyear. Pixar describes Toy Story 4 as a “standalone” that is half adventure and half love story. John Lasseter has also revealed that this “touching story” is inspired by his wife Nancy. This has prompted him to make Bo Peep into a strong character with a rich backstory. “Bo’s got some ‘tude now,” voice actress Annie Potts jokes. Here she is, leading a rescue mission titled "Operation Pull Toy" for a stray toy who is stuck outside in the rain... View oEmbed on the source website Though they now belong to Bonnie Anderson, Mrs Davis – Andy’s mom – is set to appear. This begs the question: will grown-up Andy make a cameo as well? Has Toy Story 4 had good reviews? In large part, yes. The majority of critics have posted glowing reviews for the series' fourth instalment, labelling it "wonderful", "magic" and "outstanding". Some have called the film up on its repetition of known characters and plotlines, but The Telegraph's Robbie Collins wrote that the ending left him "sobbing like a lawn sprinkler". Forky and fellow newbie Duke Caboom (played by Keanu Reeves) also drew particular praise. Forky is the hero we need in 2019,” according to Indiewire. Read a full review round-up here. Why was Bo Peep not in Toy Story 3 and how does she return in Toy Story 4? Bo Peep was sorely missed by Toy Story fans in the third movie after it was revealed she had been sold at a yard sale. “We wanted to show in a concrete and dramatic way that any toy at any time could be outgrown and given away,” director Lee Unkrich recently told IndieWire. He added: “We thought it would be powerful if one of the beloved toys from the ensemble was missing from the room. Given our previous challenges [the fact Bo Peep was made of porcelain made it unsafe for her to go on adventures with the other toys], we made the decision to have Bo Peep be that toy; it killed two birds with one stone.” In Toy Story 4, her absence will be dealt with in a flashback prologue which finally explains how Bo Peep came to be sold: after Woody and Bo Peep rescue RC, the remote-controlled car, from being washed away during a heavy rainfall, Bo Peep is suddenly given to another family because Andy’s sister, Molly, has outgrown her. Woody tries to rescue Bo Peep from the car and she invites him to run away with her. But Woody can't bring himself to leave Andy behind so he decides to stay, a decision that has weighed heavily on his mind ever since. The good news is that Bo Peep returns in Toy Story 4 to reunite with Woody. When Woody first sees her in a park, he is stunned at her transformation and at how well she's been getting on as a shepherdess of lost toys. Toy Story 4 revolves around their romance and how she shakes up his world view. Who is in the cast of Toy Story 4? Good news – the majority of the original cast will return! It's confirmed that Tom Hanks and Tim Allen will reprise their roles as Sheriff Woody and Buzz Lightyear, respectively. In fact, the two of them were on board for the fourth instalment before it was even in the works. Annie Potts will be back to voice Bo Peep alongside Joan Cusack (Jessie), Laurie Metcalf (Mrs Davis), Kristen Schaal (Trixie), Bonnie Hunt (Dolly) and Jeff Garlin (Buttercup). View oEmbed on the source website The voice of Mr Potato Head, Don Rickles, died before recording. Disney confirmed that his voice will be used in Toy Story 4 as a tribute. Estelle Harris’s Mrs Potato Head is also set to return. Patricia Arquette joins the cast to play a “hippie mother.” and Tony Hale will play another new central character, Forky, while Keanu Reeves also joins the cast as Duke Caboom – "Canada's Greatest Stuntman". Read more about the Toy Story cast here... What is Toy Story 4’s runtime? Toy Story 4 is 1 hour and 40 minutes long, making it the second-longest movie in the franchise after Toy Story 3, which is just three minutes longer. Is there a trailer for Toy Story 4? Pixar have dropped the first teaser trailer for the film, which sees most of the regular toys returning – alongside a new addition, Forky.

Yes, it does. But it's rather spoilery so instead of spill the beans here, we'll direct you towards our dedicated explainer here. When is Toy Story 4 out on DVD? Disney is yet to announce a DVD release date for Toy Story 4 but it is expected to come out sometime in October 2019 Toy Story movies If your memory is a little rusty don't worry. There's the Toy Story collection if you want to binge all the movies before heading to the cinema Toy Story Andy's favourite toy, Woody (Tom Hanks), is happy in his role as room leader, but after Andy's birthday party, new toy Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), a space ranger with laser action and pop-out wings, crash-lands into Woody's world and changes everything. Toy Story 2 Andy heads off to summer camp and the toys are left to their own devices. An obsessive toy collector kidnaps Woody - who had no idea that he was a greatly valued collectible. Buzz Lightyear and the gang from Andy's room are all systems go to rescue him. Kelsey Grammar starred as Stinky Pete and Joan Cusack starred as Jessie. Toy Story 3 Andy prepares to leave for college meaning his toys find themselves in daycare. Life isn't quite so nice when there's toddlers with their sticky little fingers playing with you. Add to that Lotso, the evil bear, and it's an emotional and daring escape for the toys. Toy Story 4 is released in cinemas on Friday 21st June 2019.
When is Captain Marvel released in the UK? Movie release date, cast, trailer, plot, theories and more
Head back to the ‘90s with the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first leading lady – here’s how to watch Captain Marvel’s movie debut
It’s been a decade since the Marvel Cinematic Universe began with 2008’s Iron Man, and it's since given us 20 films and even more superheroes. Though each solo film has featured heroes that vary in terms of powers and personality, you’ve probably noticed something: not one of the films has been led by a woman (though Evangeline Lilly's The Wasp shared top billing with Ant-Man in 2018). That's all about to change with the upcoming Captain Marvel. Here’s everything you need to know about Marvel’s first female-driven superhero film. When is Captain Marvel released in UK cinemas? The film will be flying into UK cinemas on 8th March 2019. This is the same day as the planned US release, so hopefully we might remain unscathed by spoilers! Brie Larson shares pic as filming wraps on Captain Marvel Gemma Chan shares behind-the-scenes pic from Captain Marvel RadioTimes.com newsletter: get the latest TV and entertainment news direct to your inbox Friday 8th March is also International Women's Day, and it's hard to believe that date was chosen by accident... Who is Captain Marvel? In the source comics Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, is an officer in the US Air Force whose DNA is fused with an alien’s during an explosion, giving her the powers of superhuman strength, flight and energy projection. The Kree alien whose DNA she now possesses is actually Mar-Vell, the original Captain Marvel from the comics, though Danvers has held the name in the source material as well. Your first look at Brie Larson suited up on the Captain Marvel set In 2012, Carol Danvers became the seventh character to take on the Captain Marvel alias in the comics. Other pseudonyms she has held throughout her comic-book history are Ms Marvel, Binary and Warbird. Confusing, we know. In the film version of the story, it seems that Carol is adopted by the Kree following her accident and turned into one of their soldiers, with no memory of her previous life. The events of the film mark her first return to Earth, where she begins to recall details of who she used to be. Do you have to see Avengers: Infinity War before Captain Marvel? View oEmbed on the source website In short: not necessarily (but you still should). Like most origin films, we will be introduced to a new hero and unfamiliar circumstances. Also, Captain Marvel is set to take place in the 1990s, well before the era of the Avengers. Both of these facts mean prior knowledge is not required, so die-hard MCU fans and newbies alike should be able to enjoy the film. What does the end of Avengers: Infinity War mean for the sequel? Avengers: Infinity War’s post-credits scene explained Avengers: Infinity War – what happens next? However, given that Infinity War hinted at Captain Marvel in its sole post-credits scene, it seems likely that the end of the film will tie into the eagerly-awaited Avengers 4 (which is set to introduce Larson to the wider Marvel universe) in some way. What will happen in Captain Marvel? View oEmbed on the source website Fans of superhero films have most likely seen their fair share of origin stories and are well-versed on the typical zero-to-hero formula they follow. Though as producer Nate Moore promises that Captain Marvel will “subvert” this traditional origin story arc, there are plenty of questions to ponder. "Captain Marvel is an origin movie in that you haven't seen her before, but we think we've stumbled upon a structure there that isn't the traditional structure of what origin movies typically are," Moore said according to Cinema Blend. "We're very conscious of making sure that audiences don't get things that feel like they've seen them before." And trailers give some hints as to the topsy-turvy origin story we'll be seeing in the new film, where Carol is already a superpowered member of Starforce, with only hazy memories of her life on Earth that begin to reemerge when she returns to her home planet. Teaming up with SHIELD agent Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson, digitally de-aged), Carol must discover the truth about her past while also protecting Earth from new invaders. Ben Mendelsohn in talks to star as the villain in the upcoming Captain Marvel film Fans of the Avengers comics might notice that the plot takes inspiration from the Kree-Skrull War story arc that spanned from June 1971 to March 1972. The blue-skinned Kree made their first MCU appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy, and in new pictures we've also been introduced to the shapeshifting Skrulls. Also, we are sure to see US Air Force pilot Carol Danvers in her sky-high element, as star Brie Larson has reportedly been learning to fly a plane. Is there a Captain Marvel trailer? Yes! Introducing the movie's 90s setting, the younger Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson) and Carol's backstory (she seems to have lost her memory of Earth), the first trailer was well-received online, and has already inspired some remakes. The initial trailer did take a while to arrive, however, and it may have been that Marvel was holding back on a Captain Marvel teaser so as not to pull focus from Infinity War or Ant-Man and the Wasp. Gemma Chan teases action-packed new Captain Marvel movie role More footage has also arrived more recently teasing more details of the story including shape-shifting baddies the Skrulls, led by Ben Mendelsohn's Talos. View oEmbed on the source website Who is in the cast? Oscar-winner Brie Larson will star as our fearless heroine Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel, with Jude Law playing her mentor, originally credited only as "Leader of Starforce" but now believed to be a Kree soldier called Yon-Rogg, who in the comics becomes a foe of Carol Danvers in later years. Surprise heroes and villains return for Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel And even though this is set in pre-Avengers times, a few familiar faces are scheduled to pop up. Samuel L Jackson (pictured) and Clark Gregg appear as ‘90s era versions of Nick Fury and Agent Phil Coulson, with the actors digitally 'de-aged' to play their younger selves. Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige confirmed that both actors' appearances would be altered to match the period, and footage released from the film has confirmed that fact. There will also be no shortage of aliens in this film. Lee Pace will reprise his role as Kree alien Ronan the Accuser alongside Djimon Hounsou as Korath the Pursuer (both previously appeared as their older selves in Guardians of the Galaxy). Humans star Gemma Chan, meanwhile, will play Kree sniper Minn-Erva, while Annette Bening will portray the Kree's Supreme Intelligence, essentially their ruler. Ben Mendelsohn will play leading skrull baddie Talos (pictured below), while Lashana Lynch is set to play Maria Rambeau, a fellow pilot of Carol's whose daughter Monica eventually became a superhero in Marvel comics. Carol Danvers’ family will be comprised of Kenneth Mitchell as Joseph, Colin Ford as Steve and Mckenna Grace as young Carol. Algenis Perez Soto, Rune Temte, Robert Kazinsky and Vik Sahay will also appear, though their characters are currently unknown. Who plays the cat in Captain Marvel? One of the unexpected highlights in Captain Marvel is reportedly her four-legged friend Goose, a reimagined version of Captain Marvel's alien pet from the comics (where he's called Chewie) portrayed by four different cats called Reggie, Gonzo, Archie and Rizzo. The majority of the time, the role of Goose is played by Reggie, with the other three cats serving as "stunt doubles" (i.e., they're trained to do certain one-off tricks) or body doubles if Reggie got too tired - and according to the stars, they were surprisingly easy to work with. "The one we worked with the most, Reggie, was pretty professional," Samuel L Jackson told RadioTimes.com. "There were three others that did different things. I don't know when they were, but most of the time we worked with Reggie. "Reggie was pretty good about hitting his mark, and you'd give him a snack, talk softly to him and give him a snack after he does his thing. Kind of OK. Kind of like us, with a cheque." "Do you know what, these cats were really well-trained," agreed Gemma Chan. "I was actually holding the cat. But they're very snack-oriented, as I am." Star Brie Larson had a bit more trouble, however, as she's actually allergic to cats. “It became this joke because the crew would watch me all day doing crazy stunts,” Larson told EW. “But then the cat showed up on set and I was like, ‘We need to have a plan! We need to have a conversation!’” Accordingly, two more Goose-s (Geese?) were added to proceedings - one a puppet Larson could hold, one computer-generated - and the difficulty was overcome. Does Captain Marvel have any post-credits scenes? Yes! According to reports from those who saw the film early, Captain Marvel will have two extra scenes after the main movie finishes – one halfway through the credits, rumoured to tease big things in future Marvel movies, and another after the credits have finished entirely. Better get ready to wait at the end of the movie, Marvel fans... When is the Captain Marvel premiere? The UK premiere for Captain Marvel took place on Wednesday 27th February. Brie Larson took to the red (and blue) carpet for the gala screening – but even she was upstaged by a young fan in full Captain Marvel costume. "She's my hero!" Larson said on Twitter after the event. View oEmbed on the source website
