Disney Pixar’s Inside Out had ended with a tease for Riley hitting puberty, and now it looks like she’s ready for a batch of all-new emotions in the upcoming Inside Out 2.
Disney Pixar has just released a new trailer, and it should get everyone excited for the film’s release this June. Check this out:
Here’s the official description for the story:
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
It’s funny that Joy and the other core emotions should get supressed in this sequel, since the first movie had Joy trying her best to surpess sadness in Riley’s life. With all of Riley’s emotions running smoothly though, it would make sense that someone like Anxiety should come in and start controlling everything—like it does with everyone on a daily basis.
Director Kelsey Mann had this to say about the new ‘antagonist’ of the show, “Anxiety, voiced by Maya Hawke, might be new to the crew, but she’s not really the type to take a back seat… That makes a lot of sense if you think about it in terms of what goes on inside all our minds.”
Inside Out may not have been perfect, but I do hope that the sequel does manage to expand on the whole world of Riley’s mind rather than introduce a bunch of messy plotholes. Well, if Big Mouth can pull it off, I’m sure the heads at Pixar can do the same thing with a kid-friendly take.
Catch Inside Out 2 when it comes to cinemas on June 14.
