Tim Allenthe actor known for his roles in Go Santa Claus! (santa clause in Spanish America) and Home improvement (improving the house in Latin America or A botch at home in Spain) gave life to buzz lightyear throughout all the movies toy story. But for the solo movie, he was replaced by Chris Evans (known as Captain America), as a way to make a clear difference between the toy and the character.
Until now Tim Allen had remained totally silent about the decision, but recently he has been encouraged to speak for the first time about his absence and his opinion on Lightyear. She hasn’t been particularly kind to his point of view, which is trying to rationalize the movie’s box office flop. He has done it in an interview for Extra:
“This is a brand new team that has nothing to do with the previous movies. There’s no story related to it.” toy story without Woody. It doesn’t seem to have any connection to the toy.”
Allen refers to the fact that the goal of Lightyear was to be the movie that makes Andy ask for the character’s toy, as we see it in toy story. But it seems that the execution has not been entirely clear, and it generates confusion. For us, however, it has been one of the best Pixar films in years, although its failure could have great effects.
Allen explains that after hearing the announcement of LightyearI thought it would be an adaptation. live action with real actors, not an animation, which he was able to confirm when he saw the first trailer. And you have to accept that the actor was not the only one confused with the decision.
It’s quite likely that Tim Allen will have some resentment at not being chosen to repeat as the voice of Buzz Lightyear. But after acting in the four films of toy storyyour point of view is undoubtedly valuable.
Why did Buzz Lightyear’s voice change from Tim Allen to Chris Evans?
The reason why the actor who gives the voice to buzz lightyear in his solo film was explained in detail by the production company galyn suman. “We needed a new voice, it had to feel dramatic and comedic at the same time. But most of all, it had to be heroic without coming across as arrogant or dense. It’s a very difficult job, and so we knew Chris Evans was the guy.” Susman is known for being the person who literally saved toy story 2 when Pixar mistakenly deleted it before it was released.
Not only that, the character and the character-inspired toy don’t necessarily have to have the same voice. And Pixar made the decision to make a clear differentiation between one thing and another.
