To infinity and beyond ! Buzz Lightyear is about to go! make his big comeback to the cinema. The famous toy from Toy Story will be on our screens in a new adventure, but forget the physical aspect of the character of your childhood, here, he will be more human. And above all, forget the voice that overtook him until now a new comedian has just been announced; officially.
Forget the original voice, a new actor will bring the character to life
Indeed, if you were a child at the release of Toy Storyin 1995 (and this does not make us any younger), you were necessarily in awe of Buzz Lightyear, tidying up space! Doubled; by Tim Allen in the original version, it’s Richard Darbois voice of the Genie in Aladdin or Batman in several animated series ;es, but also voiceover from NRJ radio, which lent him his voice in the French version.
When we learned that the character would be returning in a new solo movie adventure, we were all excited to hear it. this idea. Except that when we discovered the trailer, the blast; quickly fell.
Many believe that this he’s not the real Buzz Lightyear. We find ourselves a long way from this. what he looks like in the series of animated films released between 1995 and 2019. And for good reason: this film will feature Buzz, the legendary Space Ranger who inspired the toy as stated in the pitch of the film:
After being stranded with her commander and her crew on a hostile planet located at 4.2 million light-years from Earth, Buzz Lightyear is trying to get everyone back safe and sound. the House. For this, he can count on the support of a group of ambitious young recruits and on his adorable robot cat, Sox. But the arrival of the terrible Zurg and his army of ruthless robots will not make their task any easier, especially since the latter has a very specific plan in mind…
Buzz’s voice in the BA won’t be the same in the movie
In the trailer, we were surprised not to hear Richard Darbois dub the character. Indeed, it was Alexandre Gillet, the French voice of Chris Evans. Everyone therefore imagined that it would be this actor who would lend his voice for this project. Except no! Ça would be neither Richard Darbois nor Alexandre Gillet, but… François Civil!
The French actorç ais that we have seen in Dix pour cent, Bac Nord or in En Corps will therefore double the character of the Pixar franchise. On the other side of the Atlantic it is still Chris Evans who will give life to; Buzz.
François Civil will be accompanied; by Lyna Khoudri who will voice Izzy Hawthorne, Michaël Gregorio as Sox, Buzz’s cat-robot, by Tomer Sisley who will play Mo Morrison strong> and Chantal Ladesou who will perform Darby Steel. In addition to the cast known to the general public, other professional voice-overs will be in the cast such as Maïk Darah, voice of Whoopi Goldberg to play Alisha Hawtorne, Frantz Confiac (voice of Idris Elba) to embody Commander Burnside and Donald Reignoux (Spider-Man) to voice Officer Diaz.
Buzz Lightyear, the film, is expected in theaters on June 22.
