And get very excited."Įvans is living proof of his second point as his excitement about the official announcement couldn't be contained, as evidenced by his Instagram post and elsewhere. I didn't stop smiling through the ENTIRE pitch.

"I can say 2 things with absolute confidence," he said. He said he needed to know how this character was different from the Buzz Lightyear toy in Toy Story 1, 2, 3, and 4, and why the story of Lightyear is a story worth telling. All they said was 'Buzz Lightyear.'" As you can see in the post above, Evans told his team that he didn't quite understand the pitch because Tim Allen, who has been the voice of Buzz Lightyear for over 20 years, and his performance as the character, were untouchable. My team could barely contain their excitement when they told me that Pixar had a pitch for me. "I've been a massive fan of their films since the very beginning. "Working with Pixar is a dream come true," Evans said in an Instagram post yesterday. It was just one of the many announcements from Disney's recent investor call and Evans can't contain his excitement for the role. It was announced yesterday that Evans will play Buzz Lightyear in Disney Pixar's Lightyear movie, which hits theaters June 17, 2022.
