10-year-old fan invited to Toy Story 5 premiere

Imagine getting ready for school one morning... and years later ending up at a big movie premiere because of it!

That's exactly what happened to 10-year-old Vinny from Loughborough.

Back in 2020, Vinny's dad took a photo of him waving goodbye to all of his Toy Story toys before he started his first day of primary school.

The picture went viral, and Disney saw it - and years later decided to invite Vinny and his family to London to the premiere of the Toy Story 5 film.

Starting the first day at a new school is a memorable moment, and so when Vinny was four years old and heading off to primary school, his dad Sean had an idea.

He lined up his son's Toy Story toys at the front door, and took a picture of Vinny waving back at them.

"I just wanted to create a nice memory for him that he'll be able to look back on," Sean explained.

The photo went viral on social media and was even featured in news stories around the world.

Sean said: "It was about six years ago when we took the photo, so we had kind of forgotten about it and then Disney got in contact."

The US film company saw the picture and decided to give superfan Vinny and his family an unforgettable surprise.

They invited them all to the premiere of the new Toy Story 5 movie at London's Leicester Square.

Sean added: "There's going to be cast members there and we're going to be able to watch a large part of the film as well before it comes out.

"We are very excited, we're going to get suited and booted, dress up all smart and just enjoy the day."

The new film is set to be released in cinemas on 19 June.
