The challenge for Pixar was to revisit the “Toy Story” character without diminishing the legacy of the original film; see trailer
The Buzz Light Year of Toy Story he was arrogant, agitated, delusional – and cute. But everyone knows that Buzz was a toy. What then was the character in the film that inspired the toy? This is the story of light yeara new animation from Pixar, which will debut Thursday 16 in Brazilian cinemas.
This is the studio’s first film to be released in theaters since then Two brothers – a fantastic journeyin March 2020, from soul, Luca And Red – Growing up is a beast went straight to Disney +.
“Buzz in the movies of Toy Story It is a little more stupid, more foolish. But in our film, Buzz is also very focused. like the hum of Toy Storyhe wants to do the right thing, he wants to do his mission well, “director Angus MacLane said in an interview with Estadio, via videoconference. “Sometimes this single focus leads him to isolate himself from others. He doesn’t identify with other people who haven’t earned his respect. So he doesn’t trust newbies, he doesn’t like having the help of autopilot. He likes to do everything himself. alone.” Buzz also needed to be more developed, as he’s supporting in feature films Toy Story.
In light year, Buzz (voiced by Chris Evans in the original version and Marcos Mion in Brazil) is a space ranger on a mission that leaves him stranded on a planet 4.2 million light years from Earth. T’Kani Prime looks like a nice planet, but it’s not. “We wanted something that felt familiar, with subtle things that were different. The planet was supposed to be hostile, but at first it felt like it was nice. It’s a liveable place, but it’s a little bit unpleasant,” MacLane explained. Additionally, Zurg and his robot army threaten T’Kani.
Meanwhile, Buzz tries to find his way home. The problem is that every time he tries to return to Earth, he takes a step back in time, an idea inspired by the personal experience of Pixar’s artists and technicians. “We’ve been working on every movie for four or five years. So it’s four or five years every time he goes back in time,” MacLane said. “When we break up and go back to normal life, everything seems different and at the same time the same.”
Inheritance
Revisiting a character who is part of the studio’s foundation was a challenge. “In dealing with someone so dear and significant to the company, we don’t want to ruin the legacy,” she said Estadio producer Galyn Susman, who has been with Pixar since the beginning. “But we have so many people who love the character in the studio that no one would let us spoil him.”
That was the idea from the start light year was an independent production of the legacy of Toy Story. After all, one of the themes of the film is enjoying the present without getting stuck in the past or the future. “I think it’s something we should all be thinking about: embracing what we have in front of us, without nostalgia and without just thinking about what we want to achieve,” said Susman.
Interview:
Chris Evans is thrilled to show the character in more depth to fans
What’s new in the story of Buzz Lightyear?
The Buzz we know is a toy, and as such, there are a few issues that didn’t really matter to him. A toy has its purpose, but it doesn’t have to worry about illness, for example. The decisions we make as people have more consequences and it’s interesting to bring that new depth of Buzz to the fans.
You are a huge Disney fan. How was your relationship with Buzz before you were cast as a voice actor?
I love Buzz Lightyear and when Toy Story was released, the film opened the door to new stories, perspectives and approaches to animation. So when I was asked to voice this character, I was thrilled to know that there was still more to come. (BARBARA CORREA)
