Lightyear‘s origins are out-of-this-world in brand new trailer

To get to infinity and beyond, we need to explore the before.  The upcoming animated sci-fi adventure Lightyear, from Disney and Pixar, is the definitive origin story of Buzz Lightyear, the hero who inspired Toy Story‘s fearless space warrior.

Lightyear follows the legendary Space Ranger (voiced by Chris Evans) after hes marooned on a hostile planet 4.2 million light-years from Earth alongside his commander and their crew.  As Buzz tries to find a way back home through space and time, hes joined by a group of ambitious recruits and his charming robot companion cat, Sox.  Complicating matters and threatening the mission is the arrival of Zurg, an imposing presence with an army of ruthless robots and a mysterious agenda.

Lightyear opens only in Australian cinemas on June 16th, 2022.
