We went out clubbing one night after doing Toy Story 4, and somebody had a fork on their key chain, so I said, ‘That would be a great name for him!’ And then Chris Evans said, ‘Forky! Yeah, that’s it!’ So that was it; Forky was our Buzz Lightyear.
Tom Hanks and Chris Evans spoke about the casting of Toy Story 4 at a recent event. Hanks revealed that the only person he wanted for the role of Buzz Lightyear was his longtime friend, Tim Allen.
