Inside Out debuted out of competition at the 68th Cannes Film Festival on May 18, 2015, and was released in theaters in the United States on June 19.
Development on Inside Out lasted for five and a half years, on an $175 million budget, and the film faced production difficulties, including story changes. The filmmakers convinced some psychologists to consider its accurate story by researching the mind. Based on Docter and Ronnie del Carmen's remembrances, the emotions were repurposed for use in the film for its provenance of making it. The film centers on a young girl Riley (Dias) whose five personified emotions-Joy (Poehler), Sadness (Smith), Fear (Hader), Anger (Black), and Disgust (Kaling)-from the mind lead her through life as she and her parents (Lane and MacLachlan) adjust to their new surroundings after moving from Minnesota to San Francisco.ĭocter conceived Inside Out in late 2009 after noticing changes in his daughter's personality as she grew older.
It stars the voices of Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Richard Kind, Bill Hader, Lewis Black, Mindy Kaling, Kaitlyn Dias, Diane Lane, and Kyle MacLachlan. Inside Out is a 2015 American computer-animated film directed by Pete Docter, who wrote the script with Meg LeFauve and Josh Cooley.
