‘Toy Story 4’ to have Easter eggs from every Pixar film, director reveals

Toy Story 4 will apparently contain a major cameo we can’t believe — an Easter egg from every Pixar movie ever.

Director Josh Cooley revealed the news at a conference in Orlando and was reported by Cinema Blend.

“If you pause any frame in the story, you’ll see something in the background. From every movie Pixar’s ever done, there’s something in the antique store,” Cooley said.

Many scenes in the film take place inside an antique store, so there’s plenty of opportunity for sneaky cameos.

We previously knew the film had Easter eggs from Monsters Inc. and the Incredibles, but apparently, there’s a lot more in store.

Cooley also explained part of the reason why there are so many cameos in the film, which was partially for convenience.

“The technical challenge in this one was the antique store because there’s 10,000 items for the antique store that all had to be built and shaded and set dressed and everything,” Cooley said. “We didn’t even know if the computers would actually render that … So then we needed to just make more stuff to go into that antique store so a lot of it was made for this film. There’s a lot of Easter eggs in this movie because we just got lazy.”

Other Toy Story news

Last month,  Disney and Pixar released the final trailer for the film.

The new trailer shows some more clips of Bo Peep and her new badass look, Woody trying to keep everyone together and clips of some new characters that will be introduced in the fourth film.

The new trailer also showed Doom Caboom, voiced by Keanu Reeves, for the first time doing some serious stunts.  

You can watch the new trailer for the film below.

Toy Story 4 hits theaters June 21.

Earlier this year, the film dropped a teaser that showed a seriously-realistic house cat that not only freaked out Buzz and Woody, but viewers too. You can see that teaser below.

The highly anticipated Toy Story 4 was first announced back in 2015. But, along with a director switch since its initial unveiling, the previously leaked plotline has changed completely in the time moviegoers have been waiting for new adventures from the cartoon cast voiced by Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and the late Don Rickles, who played Mr. Potato Head.

According to a new synopsis, a “road trip adventure” takes place in Part 4. And it’s all instigated by the addition of Forky, an anthropomorphized non-toy plaything thrown in by Bonnie! (And voiced by none other than Arrested Development and Veep‘s Tony Hale.)

Also, in case you haven’t seen the first trailer, you can check that out below.
