Characters from the movie Inside Out in a vibrant, futuristic setting.

by Tim Gordon

Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust have been running a successful operation. However, when Anxiety shows up, they aren’t sure how to feel in the sequel, Inside Out 2.

Pixar Animation Studios produced this animated coming-of-age film for Walt Disney Pictures. It was directed by Kelsey Mann (in his feature directorial debut) and produced by Mark Nielsen, from a screenplay written by Meg LeFauve and Dave Holstein, and a story conceived by Mann and LeFauve. 

Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Lewis Black, Diane Lane, and Kyle MacLachlan reprise their roles from the first film, with Maya Hawke, Kensington Tallman, Tony Hale, Liza Lapira, Ayo Edebiri, Lilimar, Grace Lu, Sumayyah Nuriddin-Green, Adèle Exarchopoulos, and Paul Walter Hauser joining the cast.

The film tells the story of Riley’s emotions as they find themselves joined by new emotions that want to take over Riley’s head. #mayahawke #ayoedebiri #amypoehler #phyllissmith #lewisblack #dianelane #kylemaclachlan #insideout2 #reelreviews
