Playing on Lightyear’s most famous phrase, “To Inifity and Beyond,” the new poster urges moviegoers to “Go Beyond Infinity,” seeing the film in I-MAX rather than on a traditional screen.

“Lightyear” Plot Thickens
In the new clip, Buzz Lightyear and his teammates explain their mission, “Operation: Suprise Party.” The team must destroy the evil, Emperor Zurg’s ship in order to take out his robots and place a crystal in the Turnip, another spaceship that hosts a colony the group intends to save.

“You know his name, but get ready to discover the story behind the toy,” says Chris Evans, who provides the voice for heroic “Buzz,” in an intense promotional video released just minutes ago by Pixar on Twitter. Taika Waititi (“Mo”) and Keke Palmer (“Izzy”) join Evans in the action-packed sequence.
