Fans of the 'Toy Story' franchise are in for a special musical surprise. American singer and songwriter Taylor Swift has presented a new composition I Knew It, I Knew You, which will be part of the official soundtrack for the animated film 'Toy Story 5'. The film will be released worldwide on June 19, 2026.
According to Disney and Pixar, the composition is inspired by the story of Jessie — one of the most beloved characters in the series. The creators note that Swift's new work combines the country motifs characteristic of her early creativity with musical elements that emerged at different stages of her career.
The singer herself admitted that participating in the project was the fulfillment of a long-held dream for her. Since childhood, she has been a fan of 'Toy Story' and has long wanted to contribute to the famous franchise. That is why she received the offer to create an original song for the new film with great enthusiasm.
Fans began to suspect Swift's collaboration with the creators of the animated film several weeks ago. Observant fans noticed mysterious hints in the advertising campaign and on the artist's official website. Later, the singer officially confirmed her participation in the project and revealed the title of the composition.
According to studio representatives, the song will be an important part of the emotional component of the new story. The franchise already has musical compositions that have been remembered by audiences for many years, so the creators hope that Taylor Swift's new work will also resonate with fans of the animated series.
The fifth installment will continue the story of Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and other toys. The plot of 'Toy Story 5' will center around a new conflict: the heroes will face the LilyPad tablet, which captures the attention of their owner, Bonnie. The toys will have to regain the girl's interest in the familiar world of play.
