“[It's not] a break-out-into-song musical…[It's] set against the backdrop of musical performance…At the end of Toy Story 3, we had this moment where Jessie turns on the boom-box and the Gipsy Kings do a Spanish language version of ‘You’ve Got a Friend in Me.’ Which, it turned out, ended up being a real precursor to this movie,” director Lee Unkrich (who directed Toy Story 3), said to EW. “The day John Lasseter gave the thumbs up for this movie, I immediately felt this huge weight drop onto my shoulders because I knew that we were doing something different than we had ever made at the studio and that for the first time, we were going to have this enormous responsibility to do right by this culture and not lapse into stereotype or cliché.”

The movie features an all-Latino voice cast, and will hit theaters on November 22, 2017.
