Woody Wasn't Likeable
Initially, Woody wasn't meant to be a likable character. In the early storyboards, he was relentlessly mean to the other toys. "We were trying to do something different and edgy, and different than any animated film,” Pixar producer Darla K. Anderson said at D23 2015. "We were trying to find a character with an edge... We took it way too far." Eventually, after a few simple tweaks, the Woody we all know and love was on the page, and he was the most likable character out of the whole gang.
