Toy Story 3 is an upcoming American 2010 computer-animated 3-D film, being produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures.

New characters are introduced in the latest trailer of Disney Pixar’s “Toy Story 3.”
Lee Unkrich, who edited the previous films and co-directed the second, takes over as director.
Story:
Andy (John Morris) is heading off to college, and his toys, including Woody (Tom Hanks) and Buzz (Tim Allen), are worried about their uncertain future. After some twists and turns, the toys are accidentally donated to Sunnyside Daycare Center. There, they befriend such toys, such as Lots-O’-Huggin’ "Lotso" Bear (Ned Beatty), Mr. Pricklepants the Porcupine (Timothy Dalton), and a smooth-talking Ken doll (Michael Keaton).
The toys are keen on starting a new life at the daycare. It isn’t long before they discover that Andy is actively searching for them, so they decide to escape — but to make things complicated, the toys soon discover that some of their new friends aren’t as friendly as they thought. To make matters further complicated, Buzz is damaged during an escape attempt. The toys try to reset Buzz, only to make him revert to a delusional Spanish version of his old self, much to the other toys’ discomfort and Jessie’s amazement. The toys try to get Woody home in time before Andy leaves.
