More Rumors on Toy Story 3

It was almost a year ago that we started hearing rumors about the possibility of the 2nd sequel to the hugely-popular Toy Story movie. Toy Story 3 was rumored to be targeted for 2009 release.

Now come a corroborating statement from Tom Hanks that, indeed, Toy Story 3 is being planned 2009 release.

Disney Pixar's Toy Story 3 is slated for release in 2009 and is expected to have Tim Allen as well as Hanks returning to the cast.

Hanks, who voices the role of the cowboy hero Woody, said producers are "preparing the third one right now".

Lee Unkrich, who co-directed Toy Story 2, will be at the helm of the latest instalment.

When do we get to buy tickets?

This is one of the few movies where the sequel was even better than the original (you hear that, Gore Verbinski?). So Pixar certainly has quite a challenge ahead of them.
