Woody’s love interest in the hotly anticipated Toy Story 4 movie has been revealed as none other than a nursery rhyme character.
Details of the upcoming romance were announced by Disney’s John Lasseter earlier on Friday at the D23 Expo fan convention.
Speaking to the American broadcaster CNBC, the Chief Creative Officer for Disney said: “I’m directing Toy Story 4 which will be coming out in a couple of years from Pixar.
“It’s something we’ve never done with Toy Story before. It’s a love story with Woody — and this is news — Bo Peep.”
He then repeated the revelation exclaiming: “Woody and Bo Peep! Woody loves Bo-Peep!”

Some are considering the practical implications of such a romance.

Though some are very much still in denial.
#ToyStory4 a love story between between Woody and Buzz. An animated broke back mountain. #2017 #SorryBoPeep

And some can’t see the love through their own cynicism.
does the Woody/Bo Peep romance really need a whole movie tho? why not just make it a short film? #ToyStory4 is gonna be so unnecessary lol

Why are they making a #ToyStory4? It's sounding more and more like a money grab instead of a real installment in the series.

Though this fan is more hopeful.
I have been extremely sceptical of #ToyStory4…but the anouncement that it will be a Bo Peep and Woody romance has really gave me hope!

Toy Story 4 is due to hit cinemas on June 16, 2017. We can’t wait for the love to blossom!
