Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and Lilypad are off to a strong start on Disney+. Toy Story 5 notched 20 million views globally in its first five days of streaming, making it the platform's most-watched film during its premiere week.

The impressive debut adds to the momentum of one of Disney's most enduring franchises. Toy Story is already the most-watched film franchise on Disney+, with audiences around the world having streamed more than 2 billion hours of the series. Since the Toy Story 5 teaser trailer was released, the franchise has seen 168 million hours of additional viewing lift — a testament to the continued love for Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and the rest of the beloved cast of characters who have entertained audiences for more than three decades.

Toy Story 5 now ranks among the top 10 theatrical film premieres on Disney+ globally to date, joining the other four films in the series, all of which consistently rank among the platform's top 20 movies each year.

A 30-Year Franchise That Continues to Grow

Since the original Toy Story debuted in 1995, it has grown into one of Disney's most successful and influential franchises. Collectively, the Toy Story films have earned more than $4 billion at the global box office, with Toy Story 5 surpassing $1 billion worldwide this past summer.

The franchise's reach extends well beyond the screen. Fans can experience the characters and stories throughout Disney parks and cruise ships around the world via four fully immersive lands, 23 attractions, and two themed hotels. Over the past 30 years, Toy Story has generated more than $50 billion in total economic impact worldwide — a reflection of its lasting cultural resonance and continued popularity across generations of fans.

The Disney+ performance of Toy Story 5 is the latest example of the franchise's unique ability to connect with audiences across platforms, from theatrical releases and streaming to consumer products and experiences. More than three decades after introducing moviegoers to a world where toys come to life, Toy Story continues to find new audiences while remaining a favorite among longtime fans.
