story of the hero who spired the Buzz Lightyear toy, voiced by <strong>Tim Allen</strong> the four <em>Toy Story</em> films. Masterg the voice of Buzz, and liverg his most famo le—“to fy and beyond”—was an “timidatg” task for Evans.</p><p>“I ed Tim Allen as a guile. He did such a good job, and I’d be a fool not to acknowledge the work he did,” said Evans at the film’s world premiere Hollywood on Wednday. “But I uldn’t jt do a shamels imprsn. I had to somehow create my own unrstandg of the character, and try to make some h tracks the snow while payg homage to the great work that he did. Eventually I felt fortable enough to make my own terpretatn, and part of that was lowerg the tone of my voice. I basilly have to lower the register of my voice everythg that I do.”</p><p class="paywall">The change actors was a liberate move, meant to set a ntrast between Buzz om the <em>Toy Story</em> anchise and Buzz om <em>Lightyear</em>. “Tim’s versn of Buzz is a ltle goofier and is a ltle dumber, and so he is the ic relief. In this film, Buzz is the actn hero. He’s ser and amb and funny, but not a goofy way that would unrcut the drama,” said director <strong>Ang MacLane.</strong> “Chris Evans has the gravas and that movie-star qualy that our character need to separate him and the movie om Tim’s versn of the toy <em>Toy Story</em>.”</p><div class="Contaer-bkChBi byNLHx"></div><p class="paywall"><em>Lightyear,</em> theaters June 17, begs wh a tle rd tellg that 1995, ltle boy Andy got a toy Buzz: “It was om his favore movie.

The historil moment happens durg an emotnal montage where the dience se glimps of Alisha and her partner startg a fay together, and at one pot greetg each other wh a kiss on the lips.</p><p class="paywall">“It’s credible, and a real hats off to Disney and Pixar for havg that kiss be a part of this story,” said Aduba. “The kiss is a greetg and a gture of love that is tenr. It do tablish who they are as people, but is not the sgular intifier for who eher of them are.
