Stars cast joined filmmakers and special guests on the purple carpet in Hollywood to celebrate the world premiere of Disney and Pixar’s Inside Out 2. Attendees screened the all-new feature film that opens in theaters nationwide this Friday, June 14, inviting moviegoers inside the mind of newly minted teenager Riley just as Headquarters undergoes a sudden demolition to make room for new Emotions. Event images are now available; b-roll and soundbites are coming soon.
The event welcomed members of the voice cast, including Amy Poehler (Joy), Maya Hawke (Anxiety), Kensington Tallman (Riley), Liza Lapira (Disgust), Tony Hale (Fear), Lewis Black (Anger), Ayo Edebiri (Envy), Lilimar (Valentina), Grace Lu (Grace), Sumayyah Nuriddin-Green (Bree), Kyle MacLachlan (Dad), Yvette Nicole Brown (Coach Roberts), Ron Funches (Bloofy), James Austin Johnson (Pouchy), Kirk Thatcher (Foreman), Frank Oz (Mind Cop Dave), June Squibb (Nostalgia), Sarayu Blue (Margie), Flea (Jake), Bobby Moynihan (Forgetter Bobby) and Kendall Coyne Schofield (Hockey Announcer).

Mexican actor and singer Jaime Camil was also in attendance with his family, as well as influencer Justice LGND Alexander — both fans of the franchise.
In the follow-up to 2015’s Oscar®-winning Inside Out, 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, Envy, Ennui and Embarrassment show up.
