Every Pixar Film, in Order

Pixar has made 31 features in 31 years, and every one of them now sits in the same place: Disney+, in Canada, the US, the UK, Australia and New Zealand. That makes a full chronological run unusually easy, and unusually revealing. Watched in order, the catalogue tracks a studio that began as the computer division of Lucasfilm, was bought by Steve Jobs in 1986, and went on to make the world’s first computer-animated feature. Here is every film, in release order, with a line on why it matters and where it streams.

The first decade

Toy Story (1995). Released 22 November 1995 and, in Pixar’s own words, “the world’s first computer animated feature film.” Woody, Buzz and the template for everything after.

A Bug’s Life (1998). An ant colony, a troupe of circus bugs and a much wider canvas than the toy box allowed.

Toy Story 2 (1999). Pixar notes it was the first film entirely created, mastered and exhibited digitally. Jessie and Bullseye join the gang.

Monsters, Inc. (2001). Sulley, Mike and a door factory that runs on children’s screams.

Finding Nemo (2003). A clownfish father’s cross-ocean search for his son.

The Incredibles (2004). A superhero family forced into suburban retirement.

The golden run

Cars (2006). The same year Disney agreed to buy Pixar. Lightning McQueen gets lost on Route 66.

Ratatouille (2007). A rat with a palate and a Paris kitchen to prove it in.

WALL-E (2008). A trash-compacting robot alone on an abandoned Earth.

Up (2009). The first animated feature to open the Cannes Film Festival, according to Pixar. A widower, a house and thousands of balloons.

Toy Story 3 (2010). Andy leaves for college, and the toys face the question the series had been circling all along.

Cars 2 (2011). Mater gets caught up in international espionage.

Brave (2012). A Scottish princess, a rash wish and a mother transformed.

Monsters University (2013). A prequel: how Mike and Sulley met.

Sequels and originals

Finding Dory (2016). Dory goes looking for the family she forgot.

Cars 3 (2017). McQueen confronts a new generation of faster racers.

Coco (2017). A boy crosses into the Land of the Dead on Día de Muertos. Pixar says it became Mexico’s highest-grossing film of all time.

Incredibles 2 (2018). Pixar says it had the best debut ever for an animated film and earned more than US$1.2 billion worldwide.

Onward (2020). Two elf brothers attempt to bring back their late father for one day.

Soul (2020). A jazz musician’s soul goes astray. Another Best Animated Feature Oscar.

The latest

Hoppers (2026). Daniel Chong’s film opened in theatres on 6 March. Mabel transfers her consciousness into a robotic beaver and rallies the animal kingdom against a human threat. Piper Curda, Bobby Moynihan, Jon Hamm and Meryl Streep lead the voice cast.

Toy Story 5 (2026). Directed by Andrew Stanton, co-directed by Kenna Harris, released 19 June. The toys meet Lilypad, a tablet voiced by Greta Lee, with her own ideas about what is best for Bonnie. Disney says it passed US$1 billion worldwide and logged 20 million views in its first five days on Disney+.
