Directed by Josh Cooley, the film continues the adventures of Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks), Buzz Lightyear (voiced by Tim Allen), and their toy friends.

The story follows Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the toys after their original owner, Andy, has handed them over to a new child named Bonnie.

When Bonnie creates a new toy named Forky (voiced by Tony Hale) out of a disposable spork, Woody takes it upon himself to make sure Forky feels loved and valued as a toy.

During a family road trip, Woody and Forky get separated from Bonnie’s family and encounter an antique shop where they reunite with Bo Peep (voiced by Annie Potts), a long-lost toy friend of Woody’s. Together, they embark on an adventure to save Forky and discover the world outside of being a toy.

Throughout the journey, Woody is faced with questions about his own purpose and the idea of being a lost toy or embracing a new path. The film explores themes of friendship, loyalty, and accepting change.

“Toy Story 4” received critical acclaim for its emotional storytelling, humor, and animation quality.
