No, Taylor Swift didn't write a song for Toy Story 5. In recent weeks, a rumor had started circulating according to which the musician had prepared an unreleased song for the new Pixar gem. The reason for the rumor arose from a countdown that appeared earlier this month on the pop star's website, and then removed, which seemed to contain possible visual references to Toy Story.
WHY WE THINK IT IS TOY STORY RELATED ‼️☁️
– Taylor's outfit the other night. EVERY COLOR (when she wants to be seen, she will be seen)
– The color of the countdown… exactly the same as Toy Story
– clouds are the same

Now, a few days after the arrival in theaters of episode 5 of one of the most followed animated sagas in the world, the rumor has been denied. This was denied during an interview by the film's directors themselves, Andrew Stanton and McKenna Harris, who defined themselves as “surprised” at how this theory had already spread and gained such a following online. However, the two, together with the film's producer Lindsey Collins, said they were “honored” by this connection with the American pop star.

«It would have been fantastic», the comment of the directors who put an end to the matter: «But the sad truth is that we saw the final cut last weekend and the closing song is not by Taylor Swift».
