Inside Out 2 will follow the protagonist, Riley, in her teenage years as all-new emotions take control of her mind. Pixar’s official synopsis for the movie states, “The little voices inside Riley’s head know her inside and out—but next summer, everything changes when Disney and Pixar’s Inside Out 2 introduces a new Emotion: anxiety.
According to director Kelsey Mann, the new character promises to stir things up within headquarters. The movie has opened up to unique and emotional critical acclaim, with the positive reviews setting the tone for its audience turnout.
Disney/Pixar’s Inside Out 2 is generating massive revenue across theaters nationwide. Closing Friday with $60 million, making it the second-best opening day for an animated film. It is only behind Incredibles 2’s $71.2 million in 2018. This performance also surpasses last summer’s animated hit, Sony’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Which earned $51.8 million on its first day. These figures propel Inside Out 2 towards the third-highest opening weekend ever for an animated film. It is only behind Incredibles 2 ($182.6 million) and last year’s Super Mario Bros. Movie ($146.3 million).

It also stars Tony Hale as Fear, Liza Lapira as Disgust, and Maya Hawke as the voice of Anxiety.
