Inside Out 2 is an upcoming American animated coming-of-age film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. The sequel to Inside Out (2015), it is being directed by Kelsey Mann (in his feature directorial debut), produced by Mark Nielsen, and written by Meg LeFauve. The film stars the voices of Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, and Lewis Black reprising their roles, with Tony Hale, Liza Lapira, and Maya Hawke joining the cast.

Development of Inside Out 2 began in September 2022 during the D23 Expo announcement, with Mann, Nielsen, and LeFauve attached as director, producer, and writer, respectively, while Poehler was revealed to reprise her role. The film features Pete Docter's "five to 27 emotions" idea from the first film that Mann pitched during its production to utilize "truthful" worldbuilding.

Inside Out 2 is scheduled to be released in the United States on June 14, 2024.

Premise

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.

— Pixar Animation Studios[1]

Voice cast

Embarrassment, Envy, and Ennui will be the other three emotions joining the film, but it is currently undisclosed who will be voicing them.

Riley, Bill, and Jill Anderson will also return, but it is currently undisclosed whether or not Kaitlyn Dias, Kyle MacLachlan, and/or Diane Lane will reprise these roles and/or they will be replaced.

Production

Development

Inside Out (2015) director Pete Docter was germinating ideas for a sequel while the original film's nominations were unveiled at the 88th Academy Awards in January 2016.[3] Pixar officially confirmed the sequel's development during the D23 Expo announcement in September 2022, with Amy Poehler coming on stage to discuss the film alongside Docter.[4] Kelsey Mann was announced as the director of the sequel (making it his feature directorial debut as he previously directed the short film Party Central in 2013), with Mark Nielsen producing, while Meg LeFauve was announced to write the film's screenplay, returning from its predecessor.[5] To utilize "truthful" worldbuilding, Mann used Docter's "five to 27 emotions" idea from the first film that he pitched during its production.[6]

Casting

Amy Poehler accepted an offer of $5 million with lucrative bonuses to reprise her role. Following a dispute over pay, Mindy Kaling and Bill Hader declined to reprise their respective roles as Disgust and Fear; they and the rest of the returning cast were reportedly offered $100,000 each, equivalent to two percent of Poehler's salary.[7] On November 9, 2023, with the release of the teaser trailer, it was revealed that Tony Hale and Liza Lapira would replace Hader and Kaling as Fear and Disgust, respectively, while Maya Hawke joined the cast as Anxiety, a new emotion.[2]

Release

Inside Out 2 is scheduled to be released on June 14, 2024.[4]
