In late 1986, Benson first heard of the audition for The Little Mermaid through lyricist and playwright Howard Ashman. The two had just worked together in the Broadway show Smile until its run ended early. He knew she would be the perfect fit for the role and that she would be a great replica of Ariel. [16] [17] After hearing the demo for "Part of Your World", she sang a small part of it on tape where it was later sent to Disney executives. Before her audition for The Little Mermaid, she was primarily a stage actress. It was Ashman's first Disney project. In early 1988, Benson won the role of Ariel and has been voicing her ever since. [16] [18] She also made a cameo in the 2023 live-action adaptation of the film, directed by Rob Marshall, as a market vendor who hands Ariel ( Halle Bailey) a fork during her tour of the kingdom.

As they walk to the RV park, Woody convinces Forky that his place is with Bonnie, and Forky overcomes his existential crisis. As they pass an antique store's window, Woody recognizes Bo Peep's lamp, and detours inside to find her. They encounter a talking doll named Gabby Gabby and her ventriloquist dummy friends, who try to take Woody's voice box to replace Gabby's broken one. Woody escapes the store, though Forky does not. At a playground, Woody reunites with Bo Peep and her sheep, who have become "Lost Toys," free from any owners and able to do as they please, along with their new friend, a miniature police officer toy named Giggles McDimples. They agree to help Woody rescue Forky. This marks the last time the 1967 MPAA logo would appear in the end credits for a feature-length Pixar film.

The Lion King: Simba • Timon • Pumbaa • Rafiki • Scar • Spirit Mufasa • Nala • Shenzi • Baby Simba • Zazu • Adult Simba • Platinum Simba • Mufasa Though initially the antagonist, Gabby Gabby has underlying reasoning for her actions, rather than for malicious intent. Trapped in an antique store with nothing but mute "dummies", she gets lonely and her honest desire for friends is what drives her motivations. [1] She is polite and well-spoken to visitors, even engaging in conversations with them, as shown when she discusses with Forky about Woody's past. However, due to her creepy and bitter demeanor, many other characters such as Woody and Bo Peep would pass her off as being "crazy".This is the second fourth film in a computer-animated film series to feature Kristen Schaal after the 2010 DreamWorks film Shrek Forever After.

At Sunnyside, Barbie first shakes one of Stretch's tentacles. Shortly thereafter, Barbie and the toys meet Lotso, head toy at Sunnyside, who then calls for Ken to join the tour. As Barbie and Ken catch sight of each other, they walk toward one another, and Barbie asks if she and Ken have ever met. Little does Barbie know that Ken is a member of Lotso's gang. As Lotso assigns Andy's toys to the Caterpillar Room, Ken asks Barbie if she wants to live in his Dream House in the Butterfly Room, and when the toys approve, Barbie willingly goes with Ken as she leaves the Caterpillar Room. On March 19, 2019, Disney & Pixar released the official trailer for the film revealing more characters.Barbie was meant to appear in the first Toy Story film as Woody's girlfriend, in place of Bo Peep. However, Mattel would not allow the use of Barbie because they didn't want her to be given her personality (it was important to them that the girls who buy the toys would imagine what Barbie is like themselves, thus making the toy unique to each girl). Also, they didn't want to partake in a film with a troubled production. It was common knowledge that Disney had been unhappy with the original scripts of Toy Story for some time and Mattel was concerned about the effect it would have on sales. After Toy Story was a success, Mattel decided to put that policy aside and allowed her to appear in Toy Story 2, and also with her boyfriend Ken in Toy Story 3.

The red-tied dummy is first seen taking Gabby in her stroller while Woody and Forky were looking for Bo Peep in the store. Then, Woody meets Gabby Gabby and Benson and when the doll sees that Woody has a voice box, they coerce Woody and Forky into joining them. Sensing an ulterior motive from Gabby Gabby, Woody flees the shop. Gabby Gabby then sends her dummies to chase them and they manage to capture Forky. The Bensons are then later seen patrolling the shelf, turning their heads around as they guard Gabby Gabby and their captive Forky from intruders.

Toy Story 4 is a 2019 American computer-animated comedy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios for Walt Disney Pictures. As the fourth installment in Pixar's Toy Story series and the sequel to the 2010 film, Toy Story 3, the film was directed by Josh Cooley and released in theaters on June 21, 2019. Main Street Electrical Parade: Electrical Parade Elliott • Electrical Parade Minnie • Electrical Parade Tinker Bell • Electrical Parade Cheshire Cat • Electrical Parade Blue FairyThe mid-credits scenes take place in the "New Stanton Beach", a reference to Pixar director Andrew Stanton. According to Mattel toy line history, Barbie's full name is Barbara Millicent Roberts. She also has seven siblings; Skipper, Stacie, Chelsea, Krissy, Kelly (Shelly in Europe) and twins Tutti and Todd. This fact would, therefore, make Toy Story 4 the first Pixar film released under Pete Docter's supervision, who succeeded him as CEO after Lasseter's leave.
