Los Angeles, Jun 16 (EFE).- The usual thing is for the best-loved animated film characters to end up being transformed into toys, but for actor Chris Evans – ...

It was the first time that such a movie had been made, and it did so well, and it just kind of kicked the door down for this new style of filmmaking.” His flight through space was supposed to last only minutes but Lightyear breaks the space-time barrier and arrives on another planet more than decades later. He said he felt “enormous pressure” to make a film that would be emotional and convincing, adding that in “Toy Story” the Lightyear character was a comic sidekick, a parody of a spaceman, but he didn’t want this film to be just a parody.

Lightyear star Chris Evans chats about returning to the superhero game and his own feelings on the Toy Story franchise.

I know it was in theaters. What was it like uttering the phrase, "To infinity and beyond?" I know it was in theaters. I watched it with a buddy of mine whenever it came out, but we were probably in our thirties. I don't wanna give anything away, but it got me. Do you think this could be something that you would do in a long haul type way? I was like, "All my knickknacks are coming to life when I leave the room." This movie does the classic Pixar thing, which is it makes you cry. Chris Evans: You gotta take your licks, but at the end.. Chris Evans: I don't know if I remember my first time seeing it. I don't know if you felt that. Chris Evans: Right? No, I had no say over that.

Before jumping to infinity and beyond, Chris Evans told E! News' Daily Pop how he went about honoring Tim Allen's work as Buzz Lightyear in the new movie ...

When it comes to the voice of the villainous Zurg, Keke got James Brolin confused with someone else who's played a big, purple meanie. "My team called and they said, 'OK, we have everybody.' Usually, if everybody's on the call, it's either really good news or really bad news," he told Daily Pop. "They said, 'So, Pixar has a movie. But Chris revealed he was a bit hesitant about it at first.

After a same-sex kissing scene involving Buzz's partner Alisha was met with criticism from various corners of the internet, Evans, who voices the titular ...

This led a host of LGBTQ employees and allies to write an open letter to Chapek, calling out his censorship of “overtly gay affection.” The same countries also refused to play the film Onward back in 2020 because of a female character's “girlfriend” mention. Soon after, a statement by Disney’s CEO Bob Chapek explained the desire to create “a more inclusive world” amidst the passing of Florida’s “Dont Say Gay” Bill, while at the same time declining to openly condemn the issue at hand.

Chris Evans called out "idiots" who criticized a same-sex kiss in the upcoming Disney-Pixar movie "Lightyear."

“It does establish who they are as people, but it is not the singular identifier for who either of them are. “I think it’s a shame that it’s such a story. “It’s great that it’s back in the film,” Evans said.

In 1995, Pixar introduced the world to Buzz Lightyear in the hit Toy Story movie. The film spawned three follow-up films, concluding with Toy Story 4 in ...

"I mean, listen, anything to keep me in, like the Disney / Pixar family I'll do it," Evans concluded. Most of these actors, James Brolin, and I met them all yesterday at the premiere for the first time." At the time, it was simply part of the who the character was and the audience accepted the traits. "I mean, I don't wanna share too much cause I don't want to kind of, you know, show the sausage is made, but certainly the original script is very different from what the final product was." Now, Lightyear is set to show us exactly why the toy carried himself as he did with the beliefs in his own abilities which sometimes seemed to be unbelievable. The film spawned three follow-up films, concluding with Toy Story 4 in 2019.

"Lightyear" marks Pixar's return to the universe of the "Toy Story" franchise with a story about astronaut Buzz Lightyear, the hero who inspired the toy.

- Keke Palmer as Izzy Hawthorne So, with that in mind, for such an iconic character, we needed an iconic star and Chris was the natural choice." "Pretty early on there are some allusions to that, but it really should exist on its own and there was some confusion about that, it was very clear we needed a different voice.

Chris Evans stars as Captain Buzz Lightyear in the heartwarming origins tale of the space ranger. Read Pinkvilla's review below.

Lightyear turns out to be a great celebration of the concept of collaboration. To follow Tim Allen's incredible job from Toy Story films after he perfectly voiced the space ranger in the franchise for years, it must have been a tough one for Chris Evans but the actor does pull it off quite beautifully. The question is, can Buzz finally ask for help and work as a team keeping his egomaniac side at bay. My first memory of meeting Buzz Lightyear very surprisingly was not through Toy Story, the movie but rather it was through the merchandise that was released as a part of the promotions for the film. We meet Chris Evans' Captain Buzz Lightyear on a foreign planet where he and Commander Alisha Hawthorne (Uzo Aduba) have been on a mission to check its hospitable nature. If there's one thing in the Toy Story franchise that always warmed my heart, it was the sweet friendship shared by Woody and Buzz. While the Toy version of Buzz has come to understand that working with a team sometimes makes the mission easier to complete, the movie character that he's based on is still to understand this.

Newsround viewers Hawaa and Leonardo interview the stars of Lightyear - Chris Evans and Taika Waititi.

This is that movie." In the movie's description it says: "In 1995, a boy called Andy got a Buzz Lightyear toy for his birthday. "For me as an actor it's so easy to play off of the world around me, play off other actors, to play off the environment, to listen and react, but when you're voice acting you're alone in a booth and you're doing the same line over and over again and you start to get pretty self conscious."

Chris Evans says the critics of the gay on-screen kiss depicted in Lightyear will 'die off like dinosaurs.'

It seems in the case of Lightyear, Disney is willing to miss out on the potential profits to provide diversity within their film. She's likely involved with the kiss under question in Lightyear and had some opinions regarding the critics of diversity. Understand that it's now, 'To infinity and beyond.' It's time to move forward, it's time to accept and look and you know, enjoy all the faces that have always been there. "Every time there's been social advancement as we wake up, the American story, the human story is one of constant social awakening and growth and that's what makes us good," the actor said. However, following the outcry over the response from Bob Chapek and Florida's "Don't Say Gay Bill," the kiss was restored in the movie. On March 9th, 2022, LGBTQIA+ Pixar Animation Studio employees sent a letter to Walt Disney Company leadership, voicing their anger towards the censorship of gay affection in their films.

Chris Evans shared what it was like replacing Tim Allen in the "Toy Story" spinoff "Lightyear," which is set to be released on Friday.

"In this film, Buzz is the action hero. "You can't work on these characters in a vacuum because that fan base is why these movies get made," he continued. "I think it's important to remember that the fan base for both these characters has an idea of who the character should be, and you have to acknowledge that," Evans said. Heaton added the hashtag: #stupidHollywooddecisions." "Look, Tim Allen is Buzz Lightyear," he said. "My younger version would have just been pinching himself," he said.

Disney and Pixar's latest film, Lightyear, finds Buzz Lightyear fighting an interstellar battle as he works to get himself.

As for the eggs, they provide a hearty amount of protein, which helps Chris Evans through his favorite workout: shoulder workouts. Although often linked to a beer belly, beer may not be all bad.

Complex caught up with Chris Evans to talk about voicing the iconic Buzz Lightyear, the pressure to take over Tim Allen's role, and not meeting his cast ...

So with these movies, you’re really just kind of in a vacuum, giving different deliveries, and then it’s up to Pixar to kind of put the puzzle together.” When you’re in the booth you’re by yourself so it’s a challenge,” he says. They take four years and you do a whole session, you do the whole script and then you come back and they say, ‘Okay, we all got together and had meetings and we’re going to tweak all these little knobs,’” he says. Evans was tasked with the hefty responsibility of giving Buzz a backstory while displaying his humanity and the feelings and emotions we didn’t get to see from the toy in the other films. “Tim IS Buzz! Why would they completely castrate this iconic, beloved character?” But after watching the film, it makes sense that a different person would be used to voice the real person behind the toy we know and love. When talking to the actor about his latest role during a virtual press junket, Evans told Complex he was feeling “overwhelmed, humbled, and intimidated” ahead of the film’s release.

It's been a while, but Chris Evans has made animated movies before, and he loves them, so he's thrilled to be starring in the new "Lightyear" movie.

Pure unadulturated joy.

Buzzfeed releases the Chris Evans puppy interview video, in which the Lightyear star answers questions about his new and old movie roles.

Of course, Evans technically played Loki in Thor: The Dark World. The actor appeared for a brief cameo in which he played Loki shapeshifted to look like his brother's Avengers teammate Captain America. For the small appearance, Evans tried to mimic Tom Hiddleston's take on the character, so it's not the same as it would be if Evans took on the role himself. Today, Buzzfeed released the interview with Evans, featuring the actor sitting on the ground and playing with puppies while at the same time trying to answer questions about his new movie as well as his past roles. He wrapped up his time wielding the vibranium shield in 2019's Avengers: Endgame, passing on the mantle of Captain America to Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson.

Not gonna lie, I cried a little while watching Chris talk about older dogs and then watching him play with these older dogs.

Chris Evans can't contain his excitement about a potential Lightyear ride at Disneyland, while James Brolin talks about the psychology of Zurg.

So interesting, in fact, he’s eager to hop back into the voice booth should a “Lightyear” sequel come to fruition.

With criticism about Lightyear's casting still a subject of discussion, take a look at Angus MacLane's reasoning in choosing Chris Evans.

While speaking to Vanity Fair, the Lightyear filmmaker shared that the decision to cast Chris Evans was an intentional one in order to position the story apart from the Toy Story character. The actor is set to reprise his role as Santa Clause in a Disney+ series after starring in three The Santa Clause movies between 1994 and 2006. Check out the Lightyear director, Angus MacLane’s reason why he chose Chris Evans for the lead role:

Chris Evans says that he would be open to returning as The Fantastic Four's Human Torch in a Marvel project. The MCU star spoke to MTV News while promoting ...

It just would be scary to rattle something that is, again, so, so dear to me. So, to revisit it, it would be a tall order." But I really love that character, but I think… Wouldn't that be great?," the actor said. I would love it. "God, wouldn't that be great?

This comes more than a decade after the team got their first true live-action adaptations in their 2005 and 2007 solo movies, which heavily featured future MCU ...

There were a lot of rumors that you could come back in the Multiverse as another Marvel character you played, Johnny Storm. Did they ever come to you?” But I really love that character, but I think… I would love it. Yeah. Look, I would love it. Horowitz: “Look, I mean, you can’t top how you went out as Cap, and it’s gonna take the right thing eventually. Of course, with the Multiverse having already brought in legacy characters like both past versions of Spider-Man and Anson Mount's Black Bolt, amongst others, the door is open for Evans to potentially play Johnny Storm once again with the right story.

"Lightyear" star Chris Evans revealed he has lost 15 pounds since retiring as Captain America.

So, to revisit it, it would be a tall order.” Ana de Armas and Regé-Jean Page co-star as CIA operatives, along with “Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood” breakout Julia Butters and Billy Bob Thornton. It would have to be perfect. That role means so much to me. And it’ll be the best 10 years of my professional life without any question, forever.” For 10 years, you finish one, your life is scheduled by, ‘OK, in six months we have press, six more months we start the next movie.'”

Chris tried his best to answer questions about his films, including 'Lightyear,' but the star was overcome with puppy love!

After the puppy parade, a few older dogs, who were just as charming, made their way on set and Chris had a chance to regale his fans about how he came to adopt his own furry pal Dodger, who has become a bit of a Instagram star himself. While seated on the ground and under the sweetest attack from nearly a dozen pups, Chris tried to maintain his composure and answer questions related to his movie career. If you needed a ‘lil something to get you in the perfect mood for the weekend, why not try a video of Chris Evans being swarmed by an adorable pack of puppies?!

As the MCU continues to explore its multiverse in Phase 4, Chris Evans responds to whether he'd ever play a variant of the Human Torch.

Evans nearly refused the role of Captain America after his experience with the Fantastic Four. So, bringing back his Johnny Storm would be a nice way to bring things full circle following his success in the MCU. Regardless, having Evans cameo as a variant of the Human Torch would be a fun way to wink at the audience and give that character his day. Leading up to the release of Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, many thought the film would feature a string of cameos from Fox’s Marvel catalog—from Deadpool and the X-Men to the Fantastic Four. Given that Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic is a part of the Marvel Comics’ Illuminati—which was confirmed to appear in the film—rumors persisted that Ioan Gruffudd and even Evans’ characters would cameo. In 2005, Evans made his superhero debut as Johnny Storm a.k.a. the Human Torch in Fox’s first attempt at bringing Marvel’s First Family to the big screen. In a recent interview with MTV News to promote Lightyear, Evans was asked whether he’d return to the MCU as Johnny Storm. "God, wouldn't that be great? Chris Evans responds to whether he’d be open to returning as the Fantastic Four’s Human Torch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s multiverse.
