With the first official teaser trailer, Disney Pixar announced the new animated feature film Lightyear, a sci-fi animated film totally dedicated to the beloved supporting character of the series Toy Story, set in the years it was part of the Star Command.
The announcement of the 26th project of the animation house was announced last year during the D23, together with all the other projects in the pipeline of the Mickey Mouse house, together with products related to the Marvel Cinematic Universe or the Star Wars brand. Since then, however, the project has remained rather silent.
The bomb was dropped, because surprisingly the teaser trailer of Lightyear has been published on all platforms and we finally have the opportunity to take a closer look at what this project is about. Inevitable is the reference to the old animated television series Buzz Lightyear from Star Command (officially the first real spin-off dedicated to the character), but it will not be an adaptation of the same.
From what we can see from the footage, we will witness the Buzz origin story, how he went from a flight tester to being the Space Ranger we’ve come to love. The film, in fact, it seems that it will be very different from the atmosphere “toyy”That we saw in the four feature films of Toy Story.
According to the video description, it will be a sci-fi adventure that presents the origin story of Buzz Lightyear, “the hero who inspired the toy”. Speaking of Marvel Studios, the former Captain America will lend the voice to the protagonist Chris Evans, replacing the original Tim Allen. It will be curious to see what voice he will have in the Italian adaptation of the film.
The sci-fi atmosphere benefits one notable CGI, as the recent works of Pixar have already shown how Soul (in addition to the latter, it will be the second direct film in aspect ratio 2: 39: 1). It will be interesting to see how they balance the mood of the film between comic moments and darker situations such as the planet with a dense atmosphere seen in multiple scenes.
The release of Lightyear is scheduled for release in the summer of 2022, we will have to wait for future updates to have a more precise date.
