What are the new emotions in Inside Out 2: Everything you need to know about the new Disney Pixar movie
Disney Pixar’s latest film is in theaters, and here’s everything you need to know about the new movie and the new thrills it brings.
How hard it is to be a teenager! The days of childhood and fun are behind us, along come body changes, expectations, and all that. It’s been 9 years since we first saw Inside Out, a Pixar movie that asked the big question, what if feelings had feelings? After its release in theaters last June 14, 2024, it’s time to check out all the details about Inside Out 2.
What is Inside Out 2 about?
While the first movie took us inside the mind of Riley Andersen, an 11-year-old girl experiencing a mixed emotion event like starting a new life away from home, the basic emotions of Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust fight to keep Riley safe. In Inside Out 2, 2 years have passed, Riley is about to enter puberty and needs new emotions to go along with those changes. Adding to the list of new emotions is a new group that promises to explore the dynamics and influence Riley’s growing up journey as the new teen attends field hockey camp and says goodbye to her friends before entering high school.
Inside Out 2 new emotions are:
- Anxiety: The orange emotion, Anxiety, is always on edge. It worries about potential dangers and worst-case scenarios, even when things seem fine.
- Envy: This cyan emotion represents feelings of jealousy and desire. Envy often struggles with comparison and desires what others have.
- Ennui: Representing boredom and listlessness, ennui is a blue emotion that finds it difficult to engage with life’s experiences.
- Embarrassment: The pink emotion, embarrassment, embodies those awkward moments when we wish we could disappear. It navigates social situations with grace (or lack thereof).
Inside Out 2, its cast
Although the same emotions return, not all the original cast did, due to a dispute over salary offers. So while Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, and Lewis Black reprise their roles from the first film as Joy, Sadness and Anger, Bill Hader and Mindy Kaling opened the door for Tony Hale and Liza Lapira for Fear and Disgust. As for new emotions, we have Maya Hawke, Ayo Edebiri, Adèle Exarchopoulos, and Paul Walter Hause as Anxiety, Envy, Ennui, and Embarrassment, respectively.
