Toy Story 3 Adds to Voice Cast
Lee Unkrich, director of TOY STORY 3, announced via video today that the TOY STORY/TOY STORY 2 3-D double feature release will be in theaters for longer than its originally planned two-week run. Since hitting theaters on Oct. 2, the special release has already earned $22.8 million.
Unkrich also announced some new voice actors for the upcoming third installment. Kristen Schaal from "The Flight of the Conchords" will voice a new character and Blake Clark will be doing the voicing for Slinky, taking over for his friend Jim Varney, who died in 2000.
The pair join the existing voice cast of Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Don Rickles, Wallace Shawn, John Ratzenberger, Estelle Harris, John Morris, Laurie Metcalf, R. Lee Ermey, Jodi Benson, Ned Beatty, Michael Keaton, Timothy Dalton, Jeff Garlin, Bonnie Hunt and Whoopi Goldberg. TOY STORY 3 is scheduled to open in theaters on June 18, 2010.

I'm so excited that Blake Clark is gonna voice Slinky (replacing the late Jim Varney) in Toy Story 3, also in Toy story 3, Beatrice Miller is gonna voice Andy's younger sister Molly as a pre-teen, Lotso will soon be voiced by Ned Beatty, Ken will soon be voiced by Michael Keaton, Stretch will soon be voiced by Whoopi Goldberg, Chunk will soon be voiced by Jack Angel, Twitch will soon be voiced by John Cygan, Chatter Telephone will soon be voiced by Teddy Newton, Jack-in-the-box will soon be voiced by Lee Unkrich, Bookworm will soon be voiced by Richard Kind, Trixie will soon be voiced by Kristen Schaal, Mr. Pricklepants will soon be voiced by Timothy Dalton, Dolly will soon be voiced by Bonnie Hunt and Buttercup will soon be voiced by Jeff Garlin. Sid Phillips from Toy Story 1 will make a cameo appearance as a trash collector working on the trash truck.
I think Cheech Marin would've been a perfect voice for Lenny in Toy Story 3 and Mark Linn-Baker would've been a perfect voice for Wheezy in Toy Story 3.
