Who is Commander Burnside?
Commander Burnside is a character in Pixar’s animated film Lightyear, which serves as an origin story for Buzz Lightyear, the iconic space ranger from the Toy Story series.
In the film, Commander Burnside is the head of the colony on the hostile planet T’Kani Prime. He is responsible for overseeing the colonists’ safety and maintaining order as they attempt to survive on the planet. Burnside is known for his pragmatic and somewhat rigid approach, often clashing with Buzz Lightyear over decisions regarding the colony’s future and priorities. Unlike Buzz, who is driven by his adventurous spirit and a sense of duty to complete his mission, Burnside prioritizes the colony’s immediate safety and stability.
Commander Burnside is voiced by actor Isiah Whitlock Jr., known for his roles in The Wire and Da 5 Bloods.
