Taylor Swift to release new original song for 'Toy Story 5'

Taylor Swift is releasing a new original song for Disney and Pixar's upcoming film "Toy Story 5." 

Following a series of "Toy Story" themed billboards with the letters "TS" on them, a "Toy Story"-themed countdown also appeared on Swift's official website on Monday leading up to the announcement.

The new song, titled "I Knew It, I Knew You," is set be released on June 5, Swift revealed in an Instagram post Monday.

"I've always dreamed of getting to write for these characters who I've adored since I was a 5 year old kid watching the first Toy Story movie," she wrote in the post's caption. "I fell instantly in love with Toy Story 5 when I was lucky enough to see it in its early stages, and I wrote this song as soon as I got home from the screening."

She added, "Sometimes you just know, right?"

"I Knew It, I Knew You" is available now for pre-order on Swift's official website.

"Toy Story 5," premiering in theaters June 19, sees the iconic toys Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) and Jessie (Joan Cusack) coming face-to-face with new nemesis Lilypad (Greta Lee), a frog-shaped tablet.
