The upcoming sequel will bring back some familiar voices while introducing us to a whole new group as well. As Riley grows up, she is dealing with a complex set of emotions and there will be a few tears. Maya Hawke who will be voicing Anxiety, shared that she too cried during the audition. “There’s something about this story and these characters that I think really brings fundamental truths about our experience to the surface,” she explains. “It’s so relatable, so emotional, so pure, that whether you want to or not, you use what you have and what you’ve been through.”

She further revealed that she was pitched the character with an image of the character “and I was like, ‘YES, that’s ME! That’s the Velma Dinkley [of Scooby-Doo fame] part I’ve always dreamed of, with the orange and the skirt and stripes and the teeth!” And by the end of the audition, she really wanted to play the part, “It was an extremely desperate thing to do, but I think what people are looking for in audition rooms is passion. That it means something to them personally, and they’ll put pieces of themselves into it,” Hawke says.

The movie also cast Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Lewis Black, Tony Hale, Ayo Edebiri, Adèle Exarchopoulos, Paul Walter Hauser, Kensington Tallman and many more. Inside Out 2 debuts in theatres on June 14, you can check out our guide here for more details and the new image above.
