Inside Out 2’s Paul Walter Hauser and Lewis Black Flashback to Their Childhoods

The first Inside Out movie tackled the struggles of moving house when you’re young, now, the second time around, Inside Out 2, looks at the most chaotic times of a person’s life: puberty. Set a few years after the first movie, the Pixar sequel follows Riley (Kensington Tallman) as she is on the cusp of becoming a young adult and heading off to high school. Puberty means new confusing emotions clashing with your personality and struggling with pesky things like body odor and pimples, but all of this also falls on one of the most important weekends of Riley’s young life. The first Inside Out focused on the five core emotions Joy (Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Anger (Lewis Black), Fear (Tony Hale), and Disgust (Liza Lapira).
