Pixar has released the trailer for the upcoming film Inside Out 2.
The animated production is the highly anticipated sequel to the 2015 original, Inside Out.
The original film followed 11-year-old Riley, played by Kaitlyn Dias, and her five emotions: joy, sadness, disgust, fear and anger.
In the teaser for the second part, audiences are introduced to Anxiety, a sweet orange character.
The upcoming sequel is scheduled for June 14, 2024.
In the original feature film, Riley moved from Minnesota to San Francisco, where she struggled to adjust to her new normal.

Maya Hawke – to be seen in New York at the end of October – voices the character of Anxiety
Burdened by her overwhelming emotions and the typical hardships of growing up, she risked losing her friends and family.
Upon closer examination of Riley’s mind, Joy and Sadness figured out how to coexist as the young character adjusted to her new life.
The film was so well received that it earned an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature in 2016.
Film critic Brian Viner called it “ingenious” at the time, describing it as “an utterly seductive story about the complex workings of a little girl’s mind.”
Inside Out 2 was announced last year at Disney’s D23 Expo.
Meg LeFauve, who co-wrote the first film, returned to write for the second film, helmed by Kelsey Mann.
The enchanting trailer begins with a dreamy, piano-driven tune that plays as a message flashes across the screen.

“The little voices in your head know you inside and out,” reads an on-screen description.
Riley celebrates a birthday with a cake and her parents say in voiceover, “Our little girl is growing up so fast and it couldn’t be better.”
The five emotions are then shown in a laboratory with a complex motherboard and an ominous beeping red light.
One of the feelings asks: ‘What is that?’ before a boulder crashes through a window and a group of construction workers join the screen.
‘Just to get everything straight, it’s demo day!’ one shouts as the music gets louder as a version of Ozzy Osbourne’s Crazy Train plays.
Ultimately, the five original feelings are introduced to Anxiety, who wants to make a “good first impression.”
