Inside Out 2
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
Joy, Phyllis Smith as Sadness, Lewis Black as Anger, Tony Hale as Fear, and Liza Lapira as Disgust.
Directed by Kelsey Mann and produced by Mark Nielsen.

Bonus Features*
● New Emotions – With Riley’s imminent puberty, the story of Inside Out 2 always
suggested that there would be a party of new emotions complicating Riley’s world—and
throwing a wrench into Joy’s hard-won stability. But exactly what those new emotions
could be was a big question mark. Casting the new emotions in Riley’s mind was a fun
exploration into the shifting mindset of a teenager, and was also informed by some of
the discarded scenes and characters from the original film. In this documentary we’ll
discuss that process of creating Anxiety, Embarrassment, Ennui, and Envy—from
narrowing them down from a long list of possible emotions, to the design, animation,
and voicing of these new, hilarious, and strangely recognizable characters.
● Unlocking the Vault – In a kind of visual commentary, a group of central creatives watch
and discuss the scene “The Vault.” As they stop and start—and refer to various IP
versions of the scene—we’ll hear about the inspiration for Riley’s repressed memories
like Bloofy and Lance Slashblade, the development of the scene in Story, and the
technical challenges of creating 2D characters that exist in the CG world of Riley’s mind.
● Deleted Scenes
○ Cold Open – In this alternate opening, a now 13-year-old Riley awkwardly
fumbles her way through an original song she wrote for a school audition.
○ Broken Joy – After momentarily being unable to drive the console, Joy worries
that she might be starting to malfunction.
○ Pool Party – After Riley tries too hard to be fun at an older teen’s party –
resulting in utter embarrassment – her “Anxiety” becomes “Self-Loathing” who
then ousts our hero emotions from headquarters.
○ Puberty Park – After seeing their faces printed on “wanted posters,” Joy and the
others rogue emotions race through a puberty-themed amusement park while
being chased by mind worker cops.
○ Shame Spiral – At a lock-in with some cool, older girls, Riley and friends play a
game of “Never Have I Ever” that goes a bit too far – wreaking havoc in Riley’s
mind. *Bonus features may vary by product and retailer
