Pixar’s 2015 smash hit film INSIDE OUT has gone onto reach cult status, the she sequel out next summer is set to continue the story of Riley and the emotions in her head, this time as she enters teenagehood. With these changes, fans are set to be introduced to a new emotion – Anxiety (voiced by Stranger Things’ star Maya Hawke).
In the new teaser trailer (below) Anxiety lets slip that there are other newbies joining the emotions, but the brief teaser doesn’t show all of them yet… we’re excited to see who joins the gang and how Riley’s personality changes as she gets older.
OFFICIAL SUMMARY
Disney and Pixar’s brand new film INSIDE OUT 2 is coming to Irish cinemas in June 2024 with brand new emotions!
The little voices inside Riley’s head know her inside and out—but next summer, everything changes when Disney and Pixar’s “Inside Out 2” introduces a new Emotion: Anxiety. According to director Kelsey Mann, the new character promises to stir things up within headquarters. “Anxiety, voiced by Maya Hawke, might be new to the crew, but she’s not really the type to take a back seat,” said Mann. “That makes a lot of sense if you think about it in terms of what goes on inside all our minds.”
A trailer, poster and film stills are now available for what promises to be the feel-good (or feel-everything) film of Summer 2024. Disney and Pixar’s “Inside Out 2” returns to the mind of newly minted teenager Riley just as headquarters is undergoing a sudden demolition to make room for something entirely unexpected: new Emotions! Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust, who’ve long been running a successful operation by all accounts, aren’t sure how to feel when Anxiety shows up.
And it looks like she’s not alone. Maya Hawke lends her voice to Anxiety, alongside Amy Poehler as Joy, Phyllis Smith as Sadness, Lewis Black as Anger, Tony Hale as Fear, and Liza Lapira as Disgust. Directed by Kelsey Mann and produced by Mark Nielsen.
