Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks said the cast and crew of Toy Story 4 needed time to be creative, after the release date of the Disney-Pixar animation was pushed back again until 2019.

The Toy Story franchise has been a huge hit with the first three movies combing for $1.8 billion at the global box office.

The American actor will return to voice the role of toy cowboy Woody in the latest instalment of the Toy Story franchise, which has been a huge hit with the first three movies combing for $1.8 billion at the global box office.

Disney-Pixar announced last month that the fourth instalment, originally slated for 2017 but then pushed to 2018, would be delayed until June 2019 to make way for the sequel of another animation hit, The Incredibles.

Hanks said nothing should be read into the move. “The movies are made in such tiny increments over long periods of time,” he said in London on the red carpet of his latest movie, Sully, on Thursday.
