“Lightyear” flies into theaters today and still a lot of people are confused about the movie. Tim Allen originated the voice of Buzz Lightyear the toy in the Toy Story movies. Andy gets a Buzz Lightyear based on “the real” Buzz Lightyear. This new movie is based on just that. Chris Evans voices Buzz in this movie

“Tim Allen is Buzz Lightyear the toy.  We weren’t making a Toy Story movie.  We’re making Buzz Lightyear’s movie.” – producers

The director, Angus MacLane- “Tim’s version of Buzz is a little goofier and is a little dumber, and so he is the comic relief. In this film, Buzz is the action hero.  He’s serious and ambitious and funny, but not in a goofy way that would undercut the drama. Chris Evans has the gravitas and that movie-star quality that our character needed to separate him and the movie from Tim’s version.”
