Back in 2015, the first installment of the animated adventure starred Riley (Kaitlyn Dias) as she faced her feelings about growing up and moving to San Francisco for her dad’s new job. The original film won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature at the 2016 Academy Awards and was also nominated for Best Writing and Best Original Screenplay.
The original film, directed by Docter, also starred Bill Hader as Fear, Mindy Kaling as Disgust, Phyllis Smith as Sadness, and Lewis Black as Anger. They won't be the only emotions we'll see in the film. Poehler teased that we'll see several new emotions in the film as the sequel moves a few years forward into the future. "It takes place in Riley's head, only this time, she's a teenager," Poehler said, adding there will be "new emotions that show up."
Inside Out 2, which is still in early production, will be directed by Kelsey Mann. The film will follow Pixar’s previously announced Elemental which hits theaters June 16, 2023.
