8/13/2026, 1:11:49 AM

Release Schedule and Formats

Disney and Pixar will make *Toy Story 5* available for home viewing in two phases. The film debuts on digital platforms—including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home—on August 18, 2026. Physical editions arrive on September 22, 2026 in 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, standard Blu-ray, DVD, and a limited-edition 4K Steelbook featuring Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, Bullseye, and the new tech characters Lilypad and Smarty Pants.

Bonus Feature Lineup

Both the digital and disc versions include an extensive slate of exclusive extras:

  • The Lost Toys – Filmmakers discuss characters and designs cut from the final film.
  • Gag Reel – Recorded booth moments that capture spontaneous humor from the voice cast.
  • Deleted Scenes – Omitted sequences introduced by director Andrew Stanton and co-director Kenna Harris, including a Jessie-Emily reunion scene.
  • Feature Commentary – Audio commentary from co-director Kenna Harris, production designer Bob Pauley, and VFX supervisor Thomas Jordan.

Box-Office Success and Critical Reception

Since its June theatrical debut, *Toy Story 5* has generated over $1 billion worldwide and holds a “Certified Fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes with an A from CinemaScore.

Creative Perspectives on Deleted Content

Co-director Kenna Harris explained that the Jessie-Emily reunion scene was crafted to give the character an emotional resolution. Though omitted, the narrative thread was repurposed by having Jessie discover a memory box revealing Emily named her daughter after the toy.

Collectible Editions and Additional Offerings

The September 22 physical release includes the limited-edition 4K Steelbook. Disney and Pixar also offer a 5-movie digital and DVD bundle of all *Toy Story* installments and a separate soundtrack featuring Taylor Swift’s single and an original score by Randy Newman.

What’s Next

Disney has not announced a specific Disney+ streaming date, indicating the film will likely appear on the platform after the physical release window closes. Fans can anticipate the digital launch on August 18, followed by the collector-focused physical editions on September 22.
