Catching Up With the Cast of "Toy Story"
The classic Pixar film may now be 20 years old, but it's still making us laugh a lot (and cry a little). Itching for more nostalgia? Here's a look at the famous faces behind those memorable voices.
He may have been just a pull-string cowboy, but Woody sure knew how to corral his toy gang to work together.
No surprise here! As one of the most beloved actors of the past 30 years, Hanks' voice portrayal of Woody gave the movie its heart and soul.
Being the new guy isn't easy — especially when you don't even think you're a toy. After a little trial and error (and a few fights with Woody), the high-tech space ranger was able to win over the crew with his steadfast loyalty.
Besides playing Buzz in all four Toy Story films and starring in the wildly successful '90s sitcom Home Improvement, Allen also brought the Christmas cheer in all three of The Santa Clause films.
This snarky little piggy bank always had a wise crack or hilarious one-liner for any situation.
Remember Cliff Clavin from Cheers? On top of playing your favorite postal worker/loyal bar patron, Ratzenberger has voiced lots of characters in several Pixar films, including Mack the Truck in the Cars franchise and The Abominable Snowman in the Monsters, Inc. films.
Though he may look fierce, this T-rex was the biggest scaredy cat of the bunch.
This hilarious actor has played characters in everything from Clueless to A Goofy Movie to The Incredibles. Perhaps his most famous role was as the too-smart-for-his-own-good Vizzini in 1987's The Princess Bride.
This bendy little dachshund had a sweet demeanor and a Slinky body. But it was his easy-on-the-ears Southern drawl that really won us over.
Originally from Lexington, Kentucky, Varney was mostly known for an even more famous role as the goofy Ernest P. Worrell, appearing in dozens of films and commercials. Sadly, Varney passed away from lung cancer in 2000 at age 50.
Sarcastic and outspoken is an understatement when describing this character, who was based on an iconic real-life toy. Case in point: He was the first one to give Woody a hard time when Buzz showed up on the scene.
His role as Mr. Potato Head is pretty clean, but this born-and-raised New Yorker is mostly famous for being an insult comic, performing his standup on The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson, The Late Show With David Letterman, and The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast specials.
Can we just say sassy? Mr. Potato Head would be nothing without his much nicer (and less impatient) wife, Mrs. Potato Head.
Besides playing a potato, Harris is best-known for hilariously portraying the melodramatic mother of George Costanza on Seinfeld.
The group is all held together by their kind owner Andy, a little boy who seriously loves his toys — a childhood adoration we can all relate to.
Though he hasn't appeared in many other movies, Morris has reprised his role as Andy in all three Toy Story films. To get the role, Morris actually brought 45 of his own X-Men action figures to his audition, immediately proving his dedication to toys.
Unfortunately, not all kids are as kind as Andy. His next-door neighbor was the perfect villain — he liked to blow things up and scare his little sister! — for all the toys to band together against.
This former child actor is best-known for his roles in the late '90s and early '00s in films like Brink!, The Princess Diaries, and Escape to Witch Mountain.
