Pixar’s upcoming film “Inside Out 2” has just received a release date for Japan, and a new trailer and poster to go with it.

The Details

In the U.S., “Inside Out 2” is due to be released on June 14, 2024, but a new release date for Japan means they’ll have to wait a little longer…they won’t get to see it until August 1, 2024.

“Inside Head 2” as its known in Japanese, shows Riley as a newly-minted teenager who also has new emotions to deal with, though the Japanese names are different:

Shinpai (Anxiety)
Iina (Envy)
Darry (Ennui)
Hazukashi (Embarrassment)

The Japanese release of the film will also feature different voice actors from the English version, so the just released trailer for Japan sounds very different.

The Film

The English version of the film features original emotions Joy (voiced by Amy Poehler), Anger (voiced by Lewis Black), Sadness (voiced by Phyllis Smith), Fear (voiced by Tony Hale), and Disgust (voiced by Liza Lapira) meeting a new group of Emotions perfectly suited for the teenage years:

Anxiety, voiced by Maya Hawke (“Stranger Things”), is a bundle of frazzled energy, and enthusiastically ensures Riley’s prepared for every possible negative outcome.

Envy, voiced by Ayo Edebiri (“The Bear”), may be small, but she’s perpetually jealous of everything everyone else has, and she’s not afraid to pine over it.

Ennui, who’s voiced by French actress Adèle Exarchopoulos, couldn’t care less. Bored and lethargic with a well-practiced eye-roll, Ennui adds the perfect amount of teenage apathy to Riley’s personality when she feels like it.

Embarrassment, voiced by Paul Walter Hauser (“Blackbird”), likes to lay low, which isn’t easy for this burly guy with a bright blush-pink complexion.

Directed by Kelsey Mann and produced by Mark Nielsen, with a score by Andrea Datzman, Disney and Pixar’s “Inside Out 2,” will release in U.S. theaters on Friday, June 14, 2024.
