Greta Lee at Toy Story 5 World Premiere

Jun 15, 2026
On the red carpet at the world premiere of Toy Story 5, Greta Lee breaks down her approach to voicing a new digital device character, sharing how she moved past initial impressions to find the relatable, human heart inside a piece of technology. Key Highlights from the Interview: From Plot Device to Person: Lee admits her initial hurdle was figuring out how to get into the mindset of a digital device, wondering if the character would feel stiff, dry, or purely like a villain. She quickly realized the character feels just like real-world people she knows—assertive, a bit "Type A," and a bit of a know-it-all. The Perks of Being Connected: Lee jokes that her character might actually have a good reason for being a know-it-all, given that she is actively hooked up to the worldwide web. However, the real joy came from playing her like a real person who isn't always right but acts with the best intentions. Leaning into Imperfection: Collaborating closely with Pixar giants Andrew Stanton and Kenna Harris, Lee leaned into the character’s flaws, embracing the idea that no one is perfect to create a beautifully layered, humanized performance. "It's just really fun to actually play her like a person... a person who's like not always right but has the best intentions."
