Lightyear: 2 Posters, A Featurette, And A Clip Featuring Sox

Tickets for the latest Pixar movie have officially gone on sale, and the studio is really pushing all of us to see this one in theaters. There is a discussion to be had about this movie is the one that finally got a theatrical release when Soul, Luca, and Turning Red all got sent to streaming, but that is a conversation for another day. For now, the hype for Lightyear is starting to take effect, and what was once a very confusing concept for people to understand is becoming a movie that people want to seek out. We have three new posters for the film, including a new IMAX poster, and this is the first Pixar movie you'll be able to see in IMAX. We also have a new behind-the-scenes featurette and a clip featuring Buzz meeting the best character in the film, Sox.

A sci-fi action-adventure and the definitive origin story of Buzz Lightyear, the hero who inspired the toy, Lightyear follows the legendary Space Ranger after he's 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, he's 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: New Poster, Image, and Special Look
ALISHA? – In Disney and Pixar's "Lightyear," Buzz (voice of Chris Evans) returns to the planet he's been marooned on for decades after a monumental test flight. But things have changed while he was away. When he runs into Izzy Hawthorne (voice of Keke Palmer), he mistakes her for her grandmother Alisha—Buzz's best friend and commander. Peter Sohn lends his voice to Buzz's dutiful robot companion, Sox. Directed by Angus MacLane (co-director "Finding Dory") and produced by Galyn Susman ("Toy Story That Time Forgot"), the sci-fi action adventure opens in U.S. theaters on June 17, 2022. © 2022 Disney/Pixar.
