“Inside Out 2” Could Easily Obliterate Pixar’s Highest-Grossing Movie Of All Time and One Thing Proves That
Do you recall the intensely emotional rollercoaster that was Inside Out? A sequel to Pixar’s highly acclaimed film is on the way, so be ready to return to Riley’s emotional HQ! The excitement surrounding the release of “Inside Out 2” in theaters this summer is building to a fever pitch.
But might this sequel win over hearts as well as change the course of box office history? Inside Out 2 may end up being Pixar’s highest-grossing film ever, according to one important indication, which we’ll discuss just in a bit!
“Inside Out 2” could be Pixar’s biggest hit yet, and here’s why
Prepare to explore the world of emotions once more! The highly anticipated Inside Out 2 from Pixar is a follow-up to the critically acclaimed Inside Out, and it has the potential to not only win hearts but also rewrite box office history—and for obvious reasons!
Riley’s emotions—Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust—were beautifully covered in the first 2015 movie, connecting with audiences of all ages, as they worked through her childhood’s complexities. The film deservingly won an Academy Award and received widespread praise for its creative exploration of emotional intelligence.
Now, here’s where things get exciting: Inside Out 2 has already surpassed its first film—and is also the highest Pixar ticket pre-seller since Toy Story 4. Preliminary forecasts indicate a robust opening weekend that might possibly eclipse the success of “Toy Story 4” (2019). Beyond its strong start, Inside Out 2 might become one of Pixar’s all-time highest-grossing movies, potentially surpassing its $857.6 million opening weekend record.

In Inside Out 2, a teenage Riley makes a comeback, accompanied by well-known characters Joy (voiced once more by Amy Poehler) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). We’ll also get to see new emotions with Envy (Ayo Edebiri) and Anxiety (Maya Hawke), offering a unique perspective on Riley’s constantly changing emotional landscape.
Without a question, Inside Out 2’s success might pave the way for further box office hits in the early 2020s, following a string of underwhelming releases. This sequel may be the catalyst for Pixar’s comeback to box office success, as the company is primed for a successful future with fascinating new titles like “Elio” and sequels like “Toy Story 5”.
Sam Thompson asked, “Why me?” after landing Inside Out 2 cameo
When Sam Thompson received a cameo in the newest Pixar film, he couldn’t believe his good fortune. Cast member Joy (Amy Poehler) and crew must once again adjust to change as host Riley gets closer to puberty. Thompson, a former member of Made in Chelsea, said in an exclusive interview with Digital Spy,
Why me? I was like, ‘I got a voice that grates. There was never a question. Like, “I’ll be there; tell me where and when.” I only do around three lines, but as I said, I don’t think I have a very good voice. It’s evident that this is not a huge concern.
With Inside Out 2 expected to break all box-office records and become the highest-grossing Pixar film to date, buck-up to revisit Riley’s sentimental HQ. Watch the film on Apple TV and Disney+ Hotstar today!
