Rumors of Andy returning for Toy Story 5 have been running rampant, and although Pixar will get backlash for bringing him back, Andy should return for the fifth Toy Story film. Andy is one of the foundational characters of the Toy Story franchise, with his relationship with Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the gang being at the heart of the franchise's first three films. However, the events of Toy Story 3 required Andy to not appear in Toy Story 4, with his absence really being felt. It's possible that Andy could make his grand return in Toy Story 5, even if it upsets fans and causes controversy for Pixar.
