New Photo: Toy Story 3

Disney has released a new photo from Pixar's Toy Story 3 on moviefone. The photo shows Woody, Buzz, Jessie, Mr. Potato Head and the rest of the gang as they look at their new home, a day-care center where the toys are stranded after Andy goes to college. The toys must survive the abuse of the young children until Woody can come up with a plan to escape. Of course, you know all this if you've seen the movie trailer (if you haven't, click here).

Toy Story 3

The creators of the beloved "Toy Story" films re-open the toy box and bring moviegoers back to the delightful world of Woody, Buzz and our favorite gang of toy characters in TOY STORY 3. Woody and Buzz had accepted that their owner Andy would grow up someday, but what happens when that day arrives? In the third installment, Andy is preparing to depart for college, leaving his loyal toys troubled about their uncertain future. Lee Unkrich (co-director of "Toy Story 2" and "Finding Nemo") directs this highly anticipated film, and Michael Arndt, the Academy Award®-winning screenwriter of "Little Miss Sunshine," brings his unique talents and comedic sensibilities to the proceedings. TOY STORY 3 will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters.
