Clearly, fans are loving this latest journey into the mind of the movie’s protagonist, Riley Andersen. And they’re already buzzing with anticipation and curiosity about a potential ‘Inside Out 3’.
Star of this sequel, Paul Walter Hauser, who beautifully voiced the character Embarrassment, has given his two cents on who might join the potential sequel’s cast. Positively buzzing with ideas, he suggested the renowned actor Jon Hamm. He believes Hamm could be perfect to voice a new emotion in Riley’s mind, Competition.
Hauser shared his thoughts in a talk with CinemaBlend. He said, “I wanted Jon Hamm to voice Competition or a competitive nature. That dude is a real player. He can be thrown into anything.” His words pour a new wave of excitement amongst fans, who are already more energized than before.
Accompanying him in the interview, actor Lewis Black, who returned as Anger in ‘Inside Out 2’, added a fun twist. According to him, Hauser has a ton of unique ideas. Black jokingly mentioned how he’d love eliminating most of the cast members if it meant a higher paycheck.
In ‘Inside Out 2’, there were several emotions that nearly got their moment in the spotlight like Guilt, Jealousy, and Schadenfreude. With Hauser’s thoughts thrown in the mix, it sparks intrigue about Hamm potentially joining the cast in ‘Inside Out 3’. Is it a possibility? Jon Hamm, a versatile actor, could undoubtedly channel a competitive character and contribute a dynamic angle to Riley’s growing personality.
Earlier this year, I got an opportunity to visit Pixar’s studio. High on curiosity, I quizzed them about their plans for ‘Inside Out 3’. While they decided to play coy, they seemed interested in the idea of continuing with Riley’s life progression into various stages. ‘Inside Out 3’ might see Riley stepping into high school or college life, and ‘Inside Out 4’ could even explore her journey into parenthood.
This unique twist to the series, of a fourth film, could offer a dual narrative, switching between an adult Riley and her child. This fascinating idea could add a refreshing dimension to the already beloved series.
