What’s Inside Out 2 About?
The story of Inside Out 2 returns to the world inside the mind of Riley, who is now a teenager. As she grows, so do her emotions, but things take a turn when headquarters faces a sudden demolition to make way for something entirely unexpected – new emotions!
We all remember Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust from the first movie. These five emotions have been running things smoothly for years, helping Riley navigate life’s ups and downs.
But their world is about to change when Anxiety enters the picture, voiced by Maya Hawke. Anxiety’s arrival shakes up the entire operation, leaving the core emotions unsure of how to handle this new presence.
But Anxiety isn’t the only new emotion to make an appearance. As Riley deals with the challenges of adolescence, it’s clear that she’s going to need all the emotional support she can get.
Fans of the original movie will enjoy watching how these new emotions interact with Joy (voiced by Amy Poehler), Sadness (voiced by Phyllis Smith), Anger (voiced by Lewis Black), Fear (voiced by Tony Hale), and Disgust (voiced by Liza Lapira).
The combination of Riley’s growing emotions and the changes happening inside her mind sets the stage for a heartfelt and hilarious journey, one that will resonate with audiences of all ages.

The film is directed by Kelsey Mann and produced by Mark Nielsen, two key figures behind some of Pixar’s greatest hits. With their guidance, Inside Out 2 strikes the perfect balance between humor and emotion, creating a story that feels fresh while staying true to the original.
