The Voices Behind Riley and Her Parents in 'Inside Out' & New Details!

Pixar's upcoming feature film, Inside Out, sounds like it could be one of Pixar's most creative movies ever (and Pixar and creativity are practically synonyms). The movie takes place inside an eleven-year-old girl's mind, and she is guided by five emotions: Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling), and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). 

"Come on, group hug! You to Anger!"

USA Today announced that the next trailer for Inside Out will be released tomorrow (Dec. 10) and also revealed the voices of Riley (the eleven-year-old girl) and her parents. Riley is played by Kaitlyn Dias, and the parents are voiced by Diane Lane (Riley's mom) and Kyle MacLachlan (Riley's dad). Director Pete Docter proclaimed that the parents play a just as an important role in the film as Riley does.

"I started out doing a film about growing up, but it turned out it's a film about me watching my kids grow up. These parents are realizing that their kid is changing. That's difficult. But it is a part of life. They are pivotal parts, knowing how joyful this kid Riley used to be and the young woman she's changing into."

 Not only do we get to go inside Riley's mind (her headquarters) in Inside Out, but we get to see inside the minds of her parents as well! The Dad's headquarters a very much like a Norad missile defense site and all the emotions have mustaches. In Mom's headquarters, the emotions wear red glasses who engage in civil discussions like in ABC's show The View. 

"There's our world which we're conscientious of and looking at," says Pete Docter. "So we're driving, eating dinner, whatever. And inside our head there's this whole rich internal dialogue and world no one else knows about. This film gets you inside each character's heads. We're intercutting to show what's going on inside each of their heads behind the scenes. What seems like a simple family dinner is actually fraught with all sorts of emotional angst and drama."
