Will the real Buzz Lightyear please stand up? Chris Evans stars in Pixar’s new teaser

After making a name for himself in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Captain America, Chris Evans has joined another blockbuster Disney institution: Pixar.

Disney and Pixar Animation Studios released the teaser trailer Wednesday for “Lightyear,� a prequel to the popular “Toy Story� films, starring Evans as the titular space ranger. But unlike the Buzz Lightyear audiences know and love, this heroic astronaut is NOT a toy.

Directed by veteran Pixar animator Angus MacLane, “Lightyear� tells the origin story of the real rocketeer who inspired the idealistic action figure (voiced in the “Toy Story� movies by Tim Allen).

“The phrase ‘a dream come true’ gets thrown around a lot, but I’ve never meant it more in my life,� Evans said Wednesday in a statement.

“Anyone who knows me knows that my love for animated films runs deep. I can’t believe that I get to be a part of the Pixar family and work with these truly brilliant artists who tell stories unlike anyone else. Watching them work is nothing short of magic. I pinch myself every day.�

The brief teaser trailer sees a human Buzz Lightyear suit up for a daring space mission to infinity and beyond, soundtracked by David Bowie’s “Starman.�

Launching in theaters June 17, “Lightyear� is Disney and Pixar’s fifth “Toy Story�-related feature, following the seminal 1995 original and its three sequels.

“I’m covered in goosebumps,� Evans tweeted Wednesday.

“And will be every time I watch this trailer. Or hear a Bowie song. Or have any thought whatsoever between now and July cause nothing has ever made me feel more joy and gratitude than knowing I’m a part of this and it’s basically always on my mind.�
