We’ve had to wait almost a decade between Inside Out feature films, but Pete Docter, the Chief Creative Officer at Pixar Animation Studios, has revealed that we won’t have to wait as long for the Disney+ spinoff series.
Docter, who directed the 2015 original, was speaking with Entertainment Weekly when he allowed some details to spill from his own imagination about what the forthcoming small-screen series was about, and when we can expect to see it.
“We have finished. It’s coming out next spring. I’m not sure that there’s been a specific release date” Docter said. “In the first film, remember we go to Dream Production to see how Riley’s dreams are made? It semi-explains why they’re so weird.” He went on to add “We’ve continued the exploration of the power of dreams and how they affect us in our waking life, as well. So it’s pretty cool.”
