“Working with Pixar is a dream come true“Evans commented in December 2020.” I’ve been a huge fan of your movies from almost the beginning. My team could barely contain their excitement when they told me that Pixar had something for me, all they said was Buzz Lightyear. I didn’t know what they meant, since Tim Allen is Buzz Lightyear and no one could touch his performance, so I had to know what the differences are between the characters and why this story was worth telling. ” He said then that all parties could be very calm.
