Iger says, “John created Toy Story and directed the first two films, and it’s great to have him back directing one of our most valuable properties,” about the return of the original director.
Lasseter’s last project is Cars 2, which didn’t sit well with critics. He’s also attached to direct Cars 3, but he is probably looking to redeem himself by directing the fourth Toy Story.
