Chris Evans will be voicing Buzz Lightyear in Pixar’s upcoming origin story for everyone’s favourite Toy Story character, titled Lightyear.

In the trailer, we see the real Lightyear suit up for what will surely be a dangerous and daring space mission. He boards a space shuttle, with a ground control crew anxiously watching, as it blasts off into the unknown cosmos.

Lightyear explores alien planets, learns about space travel from an instructional robot and, finally, gazes up on his iconic green-and-white space suit in the final moments of the trailer.

The Lightyear movie, was first announced nearly a year ago at the 2020 Disney Investor Day, scheduled to fly into Australian cinemas in June, 2022.
