Tom Hanks said he will do anything in Toy Story 3
The third instalment of the Toy Story films is being prepared and has the full support of Tom Hanks, who voices one of the main characters in the film.
Disney Pixar's Toy Story 3 is slated for release in 2009 and is expected to have Tim Allen as well as Hanks returning to the cast.
Hanks, who voices the role of the cowboy hero Woody, said producers are "preparing the third one right now".
Lee Unkrich, who co-directed Toy Story 2, will be at the helm of the latest instalment.
And whatever adventures he and the screenwriters think Woody and Buzz Lightyear should get up to is likely to be met with no resistance from Hanks.
"I'll do anything they want me to do, they're like mad scientists," the Oscar-winning actor told Jonathan Ross on his Friday night show.
He also revealed on the show that he has a curious obsession: typewriters.
Apparently the Forrest Gump actor has 80 typewriters, which he describes as "a low-cost addiction"
"I'm insane, I'm mad about typewriters," he said. "I rotate them, I travel with them, it's my only vice."
