Taylor Swift releases music video for original song for 'Toy Story 5'
Swift’s country-tinged track was written from Jessie’s perspective, and the video uses Toy Story footage while streaming now on Spotify and Apple Music.
On Friday, Taylor Swift released 'I Knew It, I Knew You,' her original country song for the upcoming Disney and Pixar film Toy Story 5, marking a return to her musical roots.
Pixar VFX supervisor Thomas Jordan revealed the team created a 'decoy version' of the film without the song to prevent leaks, keeping the announcement secret from most staff until last week.
Swift co-wrote the track with collaborator Jack Antonoff, drawing inspiration from character Jessie's journey through the Toy Story franchise and her own childhood connection to the series.
An animated music video featuring Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and Jessie arrived on Spotify and Apple Music Friday, compiling footage from the Toy Story films alongside the new single.
Toy Story 5 opens in theaters on June 19, positioning the song as a potential Oscar contender for Best Original, following Swift's earlier contributions to films like Cats and Where the Crawdads Sing.
