Pixar have announced that a brand new six-minute short movie starring the Toy Story characters will be shown ahead of their upcoming Cars 2.

Gary Rydstrom has bagged himself directorial duties and in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, he revealed that the plot will see Woody and co recreate a romantic honeymoon spot within their toy box. The gang come up with the idea after Barbie and Ken miss their opportunity to sneak aboard for a beach holiday…

“Woody becomes kind of like what’s-his-name on Love Boat … Captain Stubing!”

Here’s the official synopsis for Cars 2

Star racecar Lightning McQueen and the incomparable tow truck Mater take their friendship to exciting new places in Cars 2 when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car. But the road to the championship is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and hilarious surprises when Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage.

Torn between assisting Lightning McQueen in the high-profile race and towing the line in a top-secret spy mission, Mater’s action-packed journey leads him on an explosive chase through the streets of Japan and Europe, trailed by his friends and watched by the whole world. Adding to the fast-paced fun is a colorful new all-car cast that includes secret agents, menacing villains and international racing competitors.
