A new countdown has appeared on Taylor Swift’s website, indicating that a Toy Story 5 announcement is coming today, June 1.
Taylor Swift and Toy Story 5 Announcement
When visiting Taylorswift.com, a brand-new countdown appears. It’s a scene of Jessie on a ranch with the Toy Story 5 billboard on the hill. This one is different from the cloud-heavy theming of the first countdown that appeared on her website in April.
The countdown indicates the announcement is coming today, June 1 at 2:00 PM ET.
Rumors have been running rampant the last several days as several TS billboards have popped up around the world. They match the one in the image above.
The Toy Story 5 creative team recently addressed speculation that the singer was performing the ending song for the movie. In an interview with creator Shivani Khosla, Toy Story 5 director Andrew Stanton, co-director McKenna Harris, and producer Lindsey Collins were asked about the Swift rumors. Stanton said the team saw the theory and was surprised by it, calling the speculation “a freakin’ honor.” Collins said a Swift collaboration “would be pretty amazing.”
The sad truth is we watched the movie being mixed last week, and the song on the end of that was NOT Taylor Swift’s song.
So while it seems Swift is not performing the final song of the movie, she may be involved in another way. I personally believe Swift has written and performed a “track 5” song for Jessie. Fans of the singer know these fifth songs are always emotional.
Swift has worked with Disney before, including a display of her Eras Tour costumes in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and the release of her documentary on Disney+.
Do you hope Taylor Swift is involved with the next Toy Story movie? Let us know on social media.
