An entire generation has grown up alongside the Toy Story franchise, so it was no surprise that Toy Story 5 became a massive international box office hit and a critical one when it arrived in June. But if you are the kind of person who walks out of a movie like that already wondering what got cut, you know the real wait does not end in theaters. It ends when the bonus features drop.
That wait is almost over. Toy Story 5 arrives on digital August 18 and on 4K UHD/Blu-ray disc September 22. And Newsweek has an exclusive sneak peek at one of those bonus features.

In this deleted scene, shared exclusively with Newsweek, we see a Buzz Lightyear (one of many in this film, which you will simply have to watch to understand) scoping out a group of "humanoids" on a camping trip.
It is one of several extras coming to the digital and 4K UHD/Blu-ray disc release. The rest of the lineup includes a behind the scenes look at the making of the film, a featurette on new cast members like Conan O'Brien and Greta Lee, and the fan favorite gag reel. Digital only releases will also feature Taylor Swift's music video for "I Knew It, I Knew You."
September 22 also brings the limited edition 4K SteelBook, a physical copy gorgeous enough that displaying it is half the point. Any longtime Disney fan knows the discs on your shelf are as much of a merch flex as a T-shirt or a toy.
And the timing is not an accident. This lands right as awards season revs up, and Toy Story 5 is going to be a real contender in multiple categories, including Best Original Song for Swift and very possibly Best Picture. Which means we all get several more months to insist we are rewatching it for the animation, and not because Pixar has spent 30 years perfecting the art of making grown adults sob in front of children.
