Toy Story 4 surprise ending (spoiler alert!) explained by Tom Hanks: ‘It’s pretty profound’
- Toy Story 4 has a new member, Forky the spork, and all the old cast, including Woody’s old flame Bo Peep
- Tom Hanks talks about the surprise ending and what it means for the franchise
Spoiler alert! The following details the ending of Toy Story 4 , so beware if you haven’t seen it yet.
Woody, Buzz and their plastic pals add new member Forky to their gang in Toy Story 4, but by the end of the animated movie, they’re saying adios to an all-timer.
Seriously, this is your last chance to bail out before the super spoilers.
An action-packed climax at a nearby carnival ends in a happy finale for everyone, even Gabby Gabby. But it doesn’t include Woody driving off with Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) and all his friends who grew up with Andy in the previous three Toy Story films, and now are there for Bonnie in her formative years.
Instead, Woody decides to seek the path not yet taken – at least for him – and hit the road with a new bunch that includes Bo, mini-police officer Giggle McDimples (Ally Maki) and carnival prizes Ducky (Keegan-Michael Key) and Bunny (Jordan Peele). Woody chooses his own happiness and being with Bo rather than going back to Bonnie’s toy box, and the end-credits scene – with Ducky and Bunny going crazy with giving out gifts to kids – hints that this group has a fun future ahead.
