Pixar is releasing a second installment of a beloved movie, and they’re calling it Inside Out 2. With the new film comes a new character for the cast inside of Riley’s mind, with a Stranger Things alum as the voice.
Who is the voice of Anxiety for Inside Out 2?
The first Inside Out film featured tons of stars for the voice cast, such as Phyllis Smith from The Office as Sadness, and Tony Hale from Arrested Development as Fear. It’s no surprise that the sequel to the Pixar film would showcase some more talent for its additional cast.
A fresh face in Inside Out 2 is more than welcome, but who is this new voice actor gracing the big screen?
With the release of the first trailer for the sequel to the Inside Out series, we’re also shown a new main character taking partial control of Riley’s mind. Anxiety, the latest addition to the range of emotions in Inside Out 2, introduces itself as Anxiety.
Orange and disorganized in appearance, Anxiety is emblematic of the messy emotions of feeling overwhelmed and worried, especially as a young teenager. The new character of Anxiety is voiced by Maya Hawke.
What else has Maya Hawke appeared in?
Maya Hawke is the child of Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke and is well known for her acting. Hawke is even starring in her own father’s movie, WildCat, which shows the life of writer Flannery O’Connor.
