Keke Palmer said it was important for new Pixar animation Lightyear to put forward the message that people of colour and the LGBT+ community have "always been a part of the story".
In the new space swashbuckler framed as being Andy from Toy Story's favourite movie, the star plays Izzy Hawthorne — a close ally of Chris Evans's take on Buzz.
Lightyear comes to IMAX and UK cinemas on 17 June.
