Titled Gatto, the movie will tell the story of a music-loving black cat living in Venice who bonds with a young human girl as he tries to disentangle himself from the city\u2019s feline crime scene. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2025\/film\/global\/pixar-pete-docter-toy-story-5-joan-cusak-hoppers-1236430354\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Deadline<\/a>, Gatto will feature a \u201ca distinct, unique hand-painted\u201d aesthetic that looks like nothing Pixar has ever produced before.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Disney and Pixar also revealed that they are developing Hoppers, a new project from We Bare Bears creator Daniel Chong about a girl named Mabel (Piper Curda) who sets out to save a local pond using technology that transfers her mind into the body of a robotic beaver. Hoppers does not yet have a firm release window, but the studios did share more about Toy Story 5, which slated to hit theaters next year on June 19th. Toy Story 5 will bring back a number of the franchise\u2019s classic playthings as their new owner, Bonnie, becomes enamored with a fancy new tablet that looks very much like it was inspired by Leapfrog \/ VTech devices.\u2018<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Developing movies years in advance has always been the Disney \/ Pixar way, and it\u2019s good to finally see some of what we can expect from the studios in the next few years. Disney \/ Pixar\u2019s output hasn\u2019t always popped off the way the studios hoped for as of late, but these upcoming projects could turn that around when they ultimate make their debuts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Though Disney and Pixar are about to start getting everyone hyped for Toy Story 5, the studios are&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":181609,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3935],"tags":[77,3063,3943,12,40953,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-181608","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-film","10":"tag-movies","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-pixar","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114677176322301926","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181608","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181608"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181608\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181609"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181608"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181608"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
