Tom Hanks Praises 'Toy Story 5'; Live-Action 'Moana' to Follow

(Central News Agency reporter Wang Xinyu, Taipei 11th) The animated film 'Toy Story 5' and Disney's live-action film 'Moana' will be released in succession. Tom Hanks, the Oscar-winning actor who voices the character Woody in the former, said he can't imagine how Pixar, the studio behind it, completed the work, but it is indeed a brilliant chapter. 'Toy Story 5' will be released across Taiwan on the 17th. In the film, after the young protagonist receives a 3C tablet, the toy characters will face a technological conflict. Tom Hanks, who has voiced Woody for 31 years, said he doesn't know how Pixar did it, but it is indeed a brilliant and complete chapter in the 'Toy Story' series. Regarding netizens noticing in the trailer that Woody's back of the head is a bit bald and he has a beer belly, Hanks said, 'He (Woody) has been overused. When you put a plastic hat on a plastic head over and over again, there's always going to be some wear and tear. Plus, his body is made of stuffing and fabric, and those materials will gradually deform over time.' Another live-action film, 'Moana', will be released on July 8th. The distributor released the final trailer today, featuring Dwayne Johnson as the demigod Maui singing the classic 'You're Welcome' and the banter between Moana and Maui, promising an exciting voyage.
