Krys Marshall Joins Toy Story 5 Voice Cast as Pixar Teases Toys-vs-Tech Story

The casting underscores Pixar’s push to pit classic toys against a kid-friendly tablet voiced by Greta Lee.

Overview

  • Krys Marshall said in a recent interview that she emailed director Andrew Stanton asking to join Toy Story 5 and later received an offer.
  • She will voice a grownup contending with her child’s new tech-driven hobby, and this marks her first role in animation.
  • Marketing spotlights Lilypad, a frog-shaped tablet voiced by Greta Lee, as the new force reshaping play, which Stanton has described as a look at how technology changes toys rather than a simple villain.
  • A trailer hints at how Woody and Buzz reconnect after Toy Story 4, and a shareholders clip shows Jessie encountering Lilypad.
  • Disney and Pixar plan a theatrical release on June 19, 2026.
