The Toy Story movies are Pixar’s most enduring series, beginning in 1995. Over the past 31 years, three sequels followed, with a fourth released in theaters on June 19th. As time passes, the actors who voice the characters age, so some recasting has been necessary. After Jim Varney, the original voice of Slinky Dog, passed away in 2000, Blake Clark took over the role in Toy Story 3. Similarly, after Don Rickles’ death in 2017, Toy Story 4 used old recordings to bring Mr. Potato Head to life. Now, even more Toy Story characters are being recast.
