That 'lizard, lizard, lizard' stuck in your head? It's from a new Pixar movie

A mysterious cartoon lizard has become TikTok’s latest rising star

A mysterious cartoon lizard has become TikTok’s latest rising star.

The green reptile, standing in a pitch-black room with a somewhat dazed smile, is repeatedly smacking a small lizard icon on a glowing screen — each time triggering an automated voice saying “lizard.”

It comes from a post-credits scene in Disney’s latest Pixar film “Elio” which was released in June. The scene was a promotion for Pixar’s upcoming release “Hoppers,” which arrives in theaters next spring.

But in recent weeks, the clip has turned into a viral meme, with the soundbite making its way into numerous musical remixes online.

According to the meme database Know Your Meme, the teaser picked up traction after YouTuber The Pixar Nerd posted a video of it on June 20. One month later, on July 27, the TikTok account igreenscreenthings posted a user-made green-screen template featuring the lizard.
