Before he was a pullstring cowboy doll in the popular movie Toy Story, Woody was actually drawn as a ventriloquist's dummy.
But that's not everything surprising that we've recently learned about Woody. It turns out that the character has a last name: Pride.
Lee Unkrich, the director of Pixar's upcoming Toy Story 3, tweeted the revelation.

Woody's actual full name is "Woody Pride", and has been since the earliest days of developing the original Toy Story.
