NEXT YEAR, BIG FEELINGS ARE BACK
INSIDE OUT 2
OUT 14 JUNE
WHEN KELSEY MANN was asked to direct a sequel to Pixar’s most cerebral film, he knew the worst thing he could do was overthink it. “My original thought was to pitch three ideas,” says Mann of Inside Out 2. Then he sat down to watch the original again with its director (and now Pixar Chief Creative Officer) Pete Docter. At the end, when the emotions inside the head of teenager Riley notice a new button labelled “PUBERTY”, Mann thought, “Well, I want to see that thing go off.’” He recalls, “I explored other ideas, but I kept coming back to that. Eventually, I just pitched that to Pete.”
