Peter Sohn directed and wroteThe Good Dinosaur(which has never failed once to have me in tears) and Pixar’s upcoming feature animatedElemental. He also voiced Ciccio inLuca, Emile inRatatouille,Squishy inMonster University, and this year, Peter Sohn brought to life Sox, Buzz’s loyal cat inLightyear.

Peter Sohn Interview

Check out the interview below:

Freshly back from D23 where he shared the first look at Pixar’sElemental(out in June 2023 and already looking absolutely beautiful), Peter Sohn told me about his love forDisney’s animatedDumboandPeter Pan, which are still a great source of inspiration for him, and he shared his idea of the perfect Pixar movie night:

“I want the tissues, but I want my family. So I want the couch, like the best way is couch family. Huddle tight, some snacks, (…) and then, if someone’s laughing, I can be close enough to like, laugh with them or eat snacks with them. That’s the best way to do it.”

And, of course, Peter Sohn expressed his love for Sox and thanked his fans, who immediately embraced Buzz’s adorable sidekick:

“It made me want to turn into a real cat. I didn’t realize being a cat would get so much love. My heart melted with the love that people showed that character, you know I was really proud of it. So thank you.”
