Pixar's "Toy Story 5" is now available for digital purchase and rental, following its theatrical run. The film, which has surpassed $1 billion at the worldwide box office, can be bought digitally starting Tuesday, August 18, at 12 a.m. Eastern Time (August 17 at 9 p.m. Pacific Time) on platforms such as Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Digital purchase prices are listed at $29.99, with rentals available for $24.99 on Amazon Prime.
Directed by Andrew Stanton, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Kenna Harris, "Toy Story 5" continues the narrative after the events of "Toy Story 4." The story picks up with Woody having left Bonnie to help reunite abandoned toys with their owners. In Bonnie's room, Jessie takes the lead, with Buzz Lightyear as her second-in-command. The plot introduces a new toy, a screen-equipped Lilypad voiced by Greta Lee, which causes Bonnie to overlook her older, non-screen toys.
The film explores contemporary themes, including the impact of technology on younger generations, aiming to resonate with both children and adults. A physical release on DVD and 4K Blu-ray™ is scheduled for September 22, 2026, and will include bonus features like deleted scenes and behind-the-scenes content. The specifics of digital bonus features may vary by retailer.
While "Toy Story 5" is not yet available on subscription streaming services, its release on Disney+ is expected. Based on the release patterns of previous Disney films, such as "Zootopia 2," which debuted on Disney+ just over three months after its premium video-on-demand release, "Toy Story 5" is projected to begin streaming on Disney+ around late September 2026. Disney+ offers various subscription tiers, including ad-supported plans starting at $11.99 per month and ad-free options at $18.99 per month or $189.99 annually. Bundles with Hulu, HBO Max, and ESPN+ are also available, offering savings of over 40% on multiple services.
