Taylor Swift confirms original song for Toy Story 5

The fan theories were right... Taylor Swift is headed to Toy Story 5.

Taylor Swift has confirmed she has written an original song for Disney and Pixar’s upcoming Toy Story 5 after months of speculation from fans.

The 36-year-old singer-songwriter announced on Instagram on her new track, titled I Knew It, I Knew You, will feature in the fifth instalment of the animated franchise.

Her song is due for release on 5 June, ahead of Toy Story 5 arriving in cinemas on 19 June.

Taylor said on Instagram:

It’s a Toy Story – you knew it! My new original song I Knew It, I Knew You for Disney and @pixar’s @toystory 5 will be yours on June 5th.

I've always dreamed of getting to write for these characters who I have adored since I was a 5-year-old kid watching the first Toy Story movie.

I fell instantly in love with Toy Story 5 when I was lucky enough to see it in its early stages, and I wrote this song as soon as I got home from the screening.

The singer accompanied the post with a carousel of images, including a photograph of herself surrounded by flowers. Additional slides appeared to tease artwork for original, piano and acoustic versions of the song.

Taylor also shared links via Instagram Stories to three collector’s edition CDs, describing them as featuring “unique vocals and production”.

Speculation surrounding the collaboration had been building among fans since April, when a Toy Story-themed countdown briefly appeared on Taylor’s website.

It had a blue sky background with white clouds resembling imagery associated with the Pixar franchise and was visible for only 10 minutes before disappearing.

You can't fool us for too long Taylor!
