Bad Bunny will take his colorful personality to the world of animation, with the Puerto Rican star announced as part of the cast of the upcoming Toy Story 5 film.

On Tuesday (May 26), Disney confirmed that the Grammy Award-winning artist will make a cameo appearance in the fifth installment of the popular film franchise as Pizza with Sunglasses. Described as “effortlessly cool and mysterious,” Pizza with Sunglasses is part of a small, but strong group of forgotten toys living in an abandoned shed.


In addition to Bad Bunny, Disney also revealed that actor Alan Cumming will appear in Toy Story 5. The actor will play Evil Bullseye, the evil counterpart of Woody and Jessie’s trusty horse, Bullseye.

Toy Story 5 will feature many of the franchise’s longstanding castmembers returning to their roles, including Tom Hanks (Woody the Cowboy), Tim Allen (Buzz Lightyear), and Joan Cusack (Jessie). Actor Ernie Hudson will take over as the voice of Combat Carl in place of the late actor Carl Weathers, who died in February 2024. Additional stars set to appear in voiceover roles include Conan O’Brien, Craig Robinson, Shelby Rabara, Mykal-Michelle Harris, and Scarlett Spears.

Disney has described the plot of Toy Story 5 as “Toy Meets Tech,” with Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and the gang confronting the biggest disruption in playtime history: A tablet called Lilypad (voiced by Greta Lee). Toy Story 5 is set to hit theaters June 19. It was co-directed by Academy Award winner Andrew Stanton and Kenna Harris, while Randy Newman returned to score the film.

Bad Bunny’s latest acting role continues his foray into film, as the Puerto Rican hitmaker has spent the past few years showcasing his chops as a thespian. In 2022, Bad Bunny appeared as Wolf in the David Leitch-directed film Bullet Train, starring Brad Pitt, and more recently showed up as Colorado in the 2025 film Caught Stealing, alongside Austin Butler, Regina King, and Zoë Kravitz.

Earlier this year, it was announced that Bad Bunny will appear in Porto Rico, a film that follows the life of iconic Puerto Rican revolutionary José Maldonado Román, known as Águila Blanca (White Eagle).

Born and raised in Scarborough, Toronto, Bauza built a career spanning more than 400 acting credits, becoming one of the principal voices behind Warner Bros.’ Looney Tunes franchise. He voiced Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Tweety, Marvin the Martian and other characters, following in the footsteps of legendary voice actor Mel Blanc. Bauza worked with Warner Bros. for more than 15 years.

Beyond Looney Tunes, Bauza voiced Fozzie Bear in Disney Junior’s Muppet Babies, Puss in Boots in the Netflix series The Adventures of Puss in Boots and characters in Avatar: The Last Airbender, Teen Titans Go! and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Elon Musk’s Grok Finally Delivers First Installment of ‘Historically Accurate’ ‘The Odyssey’

Three months after Elon Musk promised to make a “historically accurate” version of The Odyssey using AI, Grok shared the first installment of its response to Christopher Nolan’s cinematic epic.

When Nolan’s take on Homer’s epic poem arrived in June, Musk accused the director of being an “anti-White racist” over his casting of Lupita Nyong’o as Helen of Troy. “He wants the awards.” On Musk’s X and other right-leaning platforms, similar complaints were made about Elliot Page’s role as Sinon.
