The Toy Story may be over, but the Lightyear is just beginning. The origin story of Buzz Lightyear, the man who inspired Andy's favorite toy in Toy Story, will not be in Pixar's next animated movie. Chris Evans' performance as Buzz in the new trailer shows some of the Tim Allen persona coming out. The personality of Buzz Lightyear's action figure wasn't that far away from his own.
Buzz isn't simply marooned in space, as the latest trailer shows. Buzz has been thrown into the far future by his attempt to get home, which is similar to the plight of Buck Rogers. Buzz might have better luck than Buck when it comes to getting back to where he came from.
A new synopsis has been released by Disney.
Lightyear follows the legendary Space Ranger after he is marooned on a hostile planet 4.2 million light-years from Earth. As Buzz tries to find a way back home through space and time, he is joined by a group of ambitious recruits and his charming robot companion cat. Zurg, an imposing presence with an army of ruthless robots and a mysterious agenda, is threatening the mission.
The film features Keke Palmer as Izzy Hawthorne, Dale Soules as Darby Steel, Taika Waititi as Mo Morrison, Peter Sohn as Sox, Uzo Aduba as Alisha Hawthorne, Mary McDonald-Lewis as I.V.A.N., and Efren Ramirez as
Lightyear will be in theaters on June 17.
