Tim Allen went to infinity and beyond for Toy Story fans as he confirmed that Disney contacted him and Tom Hanks to return to voice Buzz Lightyear and Woody.
Allen, in an appearance on The Tonight Show this week, talked about the iconic animated film franchise after Jimmy Fallon asked if there was a Toy Story 5.
Bob Iger, head of Disney, said it was on and he actually said it was going to happen, said Allen, who earlier noted that one of the creators of the original series is behind the movies script.
They have reached out to Tom and I to reprise the roles. Theyre not saying anything about it ...You wonder if four was too many. Is five going to be too much?
Allens remarks come after Iger confirmed in February that a Toy Story sequel was in the making, Deadline reported .

Allen, following Igers announcement, shared a picture of Buzz Lightyear on social media along with the caption: See ya soon Woody, you are a sad strange little man and you have my pity. And off we go to a number 5! To infinity and beyond!
A sequel would arrive more than four years after the release of Toy Story 4, which grossed over $1 billion worldwide and had the biggest global opening for an animated film at the time.
Allen continued to spill to Fallon about the future Toy Story sequel: According to the scuttlebutt, the writer thats doing it wrote one of the better ones and said, If I didnt get this right, I wouldnt do it. So it could be a very, very interesting way to reunite it.
