Inside Out's Joy Introduces The Dream Productions Crew Of New Pixar Series
Inside Out's cheery Joy (again voiced by Amy Poehler) is here to introduce you to the Dream Productions crew at the heart of a Pixar TV series between the events of Inside Out and Inside Out 2.
Premiering Wednesday, Dec. 11, on Disney+, the four-episode Dream Productions series returns to Riley's mind, "where dreams really do come true — every night, on time and on budget," says the official synopsis.
"Riley (voiced by Kensington Tallman) is growing up, and when her memories need some extra processing, Joy and the rest of the Core Emotions send them to Dream Productions," reads the logline. "Acclaimed director Paula Persimmon (Girls5eva's Paula Pell) faces a nightmare of her own: trying to create the next hit dream after being paired up with Xeni (Krapopolis' Richard Ayoade), a smug daydream director looking to step up into the big leagues of night dreams.
The voice cast also includes Maya Rudolph (SNL), Ally Maki (The Big Door Prize, Hit-Monkey), Liza Lapira (The Equalizer) as Disgust, Tony Hale (Veep) as Fear, Lewis Black as Anger and Phyllis Smith (The Office) as Sadness.
The mockumentary-style series is written and directed by Mike Jones and produced by Jaclyn Simon.
