Disney Pixar lays off 'Lightyear' team members and studio veterans.
TL;DR Summary
Galyn Susman, the Pixar producer who saved Toy Story 2, and Lightyear director Angus MacLane were among the 75 employees laid off by Pixar in late May as part of the massive layoff from the entire Disney company. Susman had saved Toy Story 2 back in 1998 when almost all of the files from the film were deleted, but she had a backup copy of the film at home due to working remotely and was able to save it from being doomed.
