For 30 years, Toy Story has sparked laughter, adventure and imagination, with the shared joy of pizza never far from the celebration. That sense of wonder comes full circle today as Papa Johns teams-up with Disney and Pixar for Toy Story 5 – hitting theaters June 19 – for a global collaboration inspired by the all-new movie and the universal language of great pizza.
A first for the franchise, Papa Johns brings its commitment to quality ingredients together with the imagination and heart that has defined Toy Story for decades. “This collaboration unites two iconic brands rooted in quality, creativity and bringing people together,” said Jenna Bromberg, Chief Marketing Officer, Papa Johns. “The joy and imagination of Toy Story, combined with our commitment to great pizza is an authentic way for us to create something special – and delicious – for our fans.”
“Toy Story is one of the most globally loved franchises of all time, and pizza has a unique way of bringing people together across cultures,” said Chris Lyn-Sue, SVP, General Manager of International at Papa Johns. “In the first pizza collaboration for a Toy Story movie release, we’re celebrating Toy Story 5 across multiple markets, making this one of our biggest international collaborations to date.”
“Toy Story is beloved by generations, and our all-new movie Toy Story 5 continues the legacy in a fresh and exciting way” said Lylle Breier, EVP, Partnerships, Promotions, Synergy & Events at The Walt Disney Studios.“We are thrilled to collaborate with Papa Johns and bring Toy Story to fans in a whole new flavor – literally. Our collaboration is the perfect blend of comfort, nostalgia and something refreshingly new, taking the celebration to infinity and beyond.”
The program includes Toy Story 5 personal pizzas and dip cups, limited-edition collectibles, merchandise, immersive experiences and an in-app game – in select markets worldwide. Campaign elements will roll out through the end of July across key global markets, including Los Angeles, London, Seoul and Madrid.
