Chris Evans replaces Tim Allen as new voice of Disney Pixar’s Buzz Lightyear

TAYLOR KNIGHT:

TOY STORY FANS ARE BUZZING ABOUT DISNEY PIXAR’S LATEST FILM.

THE FIRST TRAILER OF ‘LIGHTYEAR’ WAS RELEASED THIS WEEK – BUT MANY ARE SHOCKED.

THE VOICE OF THE TITLE SPACE RANGER – ISN’T TIM ALLEN. 

ALLEN PROVIDED THE TONES OF THE SPACEMAN WHEN TOY STORY CAME OUT IN THE 90S. 

SO IT WAS A SURPRISE TO MANY WHEN IT WAS ANNOUNCED CHRIS EVANS WOULD BE TAKING OVER THE ROLE. 

SOME QUESTIONED IF THE SWITCH WAS MADE BECAUSE OF TIM ALLEN’S POLITICAL VIEWS – HE’S AN  OUTSPOKEN CONSERVATIVE – ESPECIALLY IN HIS COMEDY.

FANS ARE DIVIDED ON PIXAR’S DECISION

STEVE SAYS- THE IDEA OF “CANCELLING” PEOPLE THAT YOU DON’T AGREE WITH IS GROTESQUE AND TRULY UN-AMERICAN.

WHILE THIS TWITTER USER SAYS “SO GLAD TIM ALLEN ISN’T VOICING BUZZ LIGHTYEAR. HIS POLITICAL BELIEFS WILL NEGATIVELY INFLUENCE CHILDREN WHO WATCH THE FILM?” 

EVANS ISN’T APOLOGETIC ABOUT TAKING THE ROLE — SAYING HE’S BEEN A FAN SINCE CHILDHOOD.

MANY FANS POINTED OUT  ALLEN PLAYED THE TOY VERSION OF BUZZ LIGHTYEAR WHILE EVANS WILL PLAY THE REAL PERSON WHO INSPIRED THE TOY.   

ARE YOU WANTING TO SEE EVANS OR ALLEN IN THE ROLE?   

LET US KNOW IN THE COMMENTS BELOW.
