'Toy Story 4' Release Date Leaked by Tom Hanks
"Toy Story 4" voice actor Tom Hanks has leaked the premiere date for the fourth installment of the "Toy Story" movie franchise.
While fans first thought that the story of Woody and Buzz ended during "Toy Story 3," Tom Hanks revealed that "Toy Story 4" is underway and will be released in 2018. The actor, who is the voice behind the cowboy character, announced that they have been busy recording for the fourth film, according to MNR Daily.
In a time lapse video uploaded earlier this week on WhoSay, Hanks said he was on his way to the Pixar studio in Oakland to work on "Toy Story 4." The caption of the clip bears the hashtag #ToyStory4, the International Business Times reports.

While some Disney executives may have preferred to keep the movie under wraps, Hank appeared on "The Graham Norton Show" and revealed that recording will begin in December and "Toy Story 4" will premiere in 2018, the report relays.
"We're now recording Toy Story 4. It will be out in 2018, so it takes a long time," MNR quotes Hanks' statement during the show. "I have a recording session on the second of December."
Aside from that, Hanks shared how difficult the recording sessions were for the previous "Toy Story" movies. To get his diaphragm to relax after an intense recording, he had to put ice packs on his chest on his way home, the report details.
Prior to Hanks' revelations, rumors have already surfaced about a fourth "Toy Story" installment. John Lassater, who directed the first two films, confirmed that he will return for the fourth one. He explained that they had no plans of doing the fourth film after Woddy and Buzz's story ended. However, they came up with a brilliant idea that they could not resist.
The exact release date of "Toy Story 4" has not yet been confirmed, but HelloGiggles says the movie will come out on June 15, 2018. More details on the upcoming movie are expected to surface next year.
