Pixar's *Toy Story 5* opened to $71 million on Friday from 4,425 theaters, easily topping the box office. Forecasters project a three-day weekend of roughly $150 million, and as high as $175 million — enough to set a [franchise-best opening](https://variety.com/2026/film/box-office/box-office-toy-story-5-disclosure-day-obsession-1236786188/), surpassing *Toy Story 4*'s $120 million debut in 2019.

The result matters for Disney's math. The film carries a reported $250 million production budget before marketing, so a strong start is needed to reach profitability. Returning leads Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and Joan Cusack are joined by new voice cast including Greta Lee and Keanu Reeves, in a story that pits Buzz and Woody against an "edutainment" smart tablet.
