‘How about that? Actually, I wanted to go head-to-head with Tim Allen and then they didn’t let Tim Allen do it,’ Hanks remarked
Tom Hanks Reaction On Tim Allen
Tom Hanks, Tim Allen’s co-star in “Toy Story,” said he never understood why the experienced actor wasn’t recast in the most recent “Lightyear” film. Chris Evans performed the legendary Buzz Lightyear voice in the most recent Disney film.
In an earlier interview with Cinemablend, Hanks expressed his opinion about the competition he faces at the box office, including Allen and a “Toy Story” spinoff.
What do you say? Actually, I intended to compete against Tim Allen, but they prevented Tim Allen from doing so, Hanks said. “I fail to comprehend that. Just as long as people continue to visit the movie theater, that is. I want to return to the theater with a large group of unfamiliar people and leave having connected with some of them. That’s what I want to accomplish, and I’m excited about seeing a movie with him [Allen].
Even as talk about the movie grew more intense as the release date approached, Allen’s recasting has generated quite a bit of controversy. While speaking to Extra, Allen claimed to have “stayed out of this.” I’ve avoided this, he declared. “We discussed this many years ago, but this is not the same brass that produced the previous four films.
It’s a brand-new crew that was largely unrelated to the original films. Without Woody, he believed, the film lacked something. “I’m a storyline guy, so I’m not sure what the idea is.
It would appear to be a large-scale adventure tale, but in my opinion, it isn’t. It’s a great story, but there’s no apparent relationship to the toy. It is not connected to Buzz.
A prequel to the 1995 cult classic “Toy Story,” which starred Tom Hanks and Allen as Woody and Buzz, “Lightyear” debuted in theaters on June 17. Although Evans was picked to play the role, the latter went on to voice the space ranger in four other films in the franchise.
