    OFFICIAL: Disney Announces Toy Story 4 Set to Hit Theaters June 21, 2019

    Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the gang are coming back to a theater near you! Disney-Pixar’s “Toy Story 4” is coming to theaters June 21, 2019, according to a post on the movies Facebook page on Friday.

    Josh Cooley is now helming the film after John Lasseter stepped down from the project and Stephany Folsom has been tapped to pen the next instalment of the franchise that put Pixar on the map.

    Disney Chairman and CEO Bob Iger today announced that plans are underway to bring Toy Story 4 to the big screen back in 2014, but there have been some bumps along the way and the film kept getting pushed back.

    Lasseter announced the date back in July at the D23 expo, but this confirms it.

    If Robert Downey Jr. Wants Infinity War Release Date Moved Up Then It Happens

    When you have clout like Robert Downey Jr. you get anything you ask for. There certainly ain’t no strings on him and it seems he is the one pulling the strings here. So if Iron Man wants to see Avengers: Infinity War a week early then Marvel changes the release date.

    Disney recently announced a re-shuffling of their upcoming film release dates and the Avengers Infinity War release date has been moved up from its initial May 4 date to April 27, 2018.

    With just three months until Infinity War was slated to hit theaters, Marvel Studios has bumped up the release date for all at the request of Mr. Robert Downey Jr. himself.

    Below you’ll find a series of tweets between Downey Jr. and the studio.

    Okay so it’s all in good fun and a hilarious and very effective marketing scheme. But Avengers: Infinity War is already one of the most anticipated movies of 2018 and Robert Downey Jr. and the entire world he is taking with him to see the movie are jumping for joy over the earlier release date.

    The move probably makes sense as it would have been going up against Deadpool 2 on May 18 and Solo: A Star Wars Story on May 25. With its earlier release date on April 27, Infinity War’s  gets a little more time to rake in the box office cash before these to films hit theaters.
