Conan O’Brien Joins ‘Toy Story 5’ as Hilarious New Character Smarty Pants!

BBG News

Disney has announced another addition to the voice cast of “Toy Story 5,” with popular talk show host and comedian Conan O’Brien joining the iconic Pixar franchise. He will voice a character named Smarty Pants in the upcoming fifth movie, set for release on June 19, 2026. This new installment promises an exciting “toy meets tech” storyline as the classic toy characters encounter their toughest rivals yet – electronic devices, marking a fresh challenge for Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and the rest of the original gang on screen.

As a film enthusiast thrilled by the news, I can’t help but share my excitement about directing Toy Story 5 alongside McKenna Harris, with Jessica Choi producing the masterpiece. Although details on the character Smarty Pants remain secret, I can’t wait to contribute to this legendary animated tale. After the official announcement at Disney’s Licensing Expo presentation on May 19, I couldn’t resist sharing my joy on Instagram (video below). In a playful manner, I even referred to Smarty Pants as “the best character of them all,” outshining even timeless favorites like Woody and Buzz.

Exciting update! I’ve been cast in the upcoming movie, ‘Toy Story 5′. It’s hard to believe, isn’t it? This franchise is legendary and the films are just fantastic. At first, I hoped to play Woody, but they said that role was already given to Tom Hanks. I jokingly suggested he might be a bit tired of the part. They agreed it was Tom Hanks’ role. Then I asked about Buzz Lightyear, assuming Tim Allen would be reprising his role. And yes, it’s Tim Allen. I suggested they consider other options. Eventually, they introduced me to this new character, Smarty Pants. I love this character more than any other. Now, I don’t even want to play Woody or Buzz anymore, not even if they ask.

Currently basking in his shining moment under the spotlight, O’Brien has just been crowned the new darling of the Oscars following a highly praised performance as this year’s host. This triumph has secured him the lead role for the upcoming ceremonies, which he eagerly agreed to participate in. While he is most recognized for his work on Late Night with Conan O’Brien, The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, Conan, and more recently, the HBO Max travel show Conan O’Brien Must Go, his talents extend beyond television. He has also lent his voice to various animated projects, including The Mitchells vs the Machines, The Lego Batman Movie, and Robot Chicken: Star Wars, among numerous others.
