Article Summary

  • New look at Inside Out 2 reveals Joy and newcomer Anxiety.
  • Anxiety, voiced by Maya Hawke, joins the emotional mix.
  • Inside Out 2 is Pixar's solo release for 2024, amid delays.
  • Pixar seeks a box office rebound with this highly anticipated sequel.

Disney has a weird 2024 ahead of it, with several major movies getting delayed due to the strikes. We were supposed to get two Pixar films this year, but instead, Elio was postponed to 2025, and now Inside Out 2 is the only Pixar film opening this year. Pixar had a strange 2023 with Elemental opening not so great at the box office but managing to keep steady in the following weeks and eventually becoming a success story. It couldn't have come at a better time since Pixar was the studio that seemed like it couldn't bounce back after having three of its features go to streaming due to the pandemic. Inside Out is often called one of the best Pixar has ever made, and this second is going to have an extremely high bar to clear, much higher than an original production like Elio would have to clear because the expectations will be higher. We have a new image from the film that features one of the new Emotions we're all familiar with: Anxiety.

Much to Joy's surprise, Anxiety isn't the type who will take a back seat either.

Yeah, that look tracks for what "anxiety" would look like if it were a character. There are more emotions on the way that we haven't gotten a good look at yet, but this film is still months away. Until then, if you're looking for some big-screen animated fun, Soul was just in theaters, and Turning Red and Luca are next.

Inside Out 2: Summary, Cast List, Release Date

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 the voice of Joy. The voice cast also includes Lewis Black, Phyllis Smith, Tony Hale, and Liza Lapira.
