Woody's aging in Toy Story 5 challenges the unspoken rule that animated characters do not age.
Toy Story was one of the most influential films in modern cinema. Directed by John Lasseter and produced by Pixar with release through Disney, it was the first fully computer-animated feature film, leading studios worldwide to pivot away from hand-drawn animation. The story features toys who spring to life when humans are not looking, notably Woody (Tom Hanks), a pull-string cowboy doll, and Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), a flashy new space-ranger who threatens Woody's status as Andy's favourite.
