What is all the “Buzz” about the “Lightyear” movie about?
Traveling to infinity and beyond this summer, the movie “Lightyear” is a spinoff of the “Toy Story” franchise. This movie stars Chris Evans as Buzz Lightyear and is a story about time travel. The CGI-animated film is bound to take everyone for a ride.

“Buzz’s world was always something I was excited about,” said movie director Angus MacLane in a statement. “In ‘Toy Story,’ there seemed to be this incredible backstory to him being a space ranger that’s only touched upon, and I always wanted to explore that world further.”
