The ‘Inside Out 2’ mockumentary-style limited spinoff series ‘Dream Productions’ premieres December 11, while ‘Win or Lose’ hits the streamer February 19, 2025.
Disney+ has revealed the launch dates for Dream Productions and Win or Lose, two new series from Pixar Animation Studios.
Following the record-breaking global success of Inside Out 2, the spinoff series Dream Productions returns to Riley’s mind, this time to explore the inner workings of the studio behind her dreams. Riley is growing up and when her memories need some extra processing, Joy and the rest of the Core Emotions send them to Dream Productions. Acclaimed director Paula Persimmon (voice of Paula Pell) faces a nightmare of her own: Trying to create the next hit dream after being paired up with Xeni (voice of Richard Ayoade), a smug daydream director looking to step up into the big leagues of night dreams.
The series also features the voices of Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Ally Maki, Kensington Tallman, Liza Lapira, Tony Hale, Lewis Black and Phyllis Smith. The mockumentary-style series is written and directed by Mike Jones and produced by Jaclyn Simon. All four episodes come to the streamer beginning December 11, 2024.
The all-new original series Win or Lose features the intertwined stories of different characters as they each prepare for their big championship softball game. Featuring the voice of Will Forte as the coach, the series is directed, written and executive produced by Carrie Hobson and Michael Yates, and produced David Lally. Eight episodes, each following a new character, start to roll out on Disney+ beginning February 19, 2025.
“These two series really show Pixar creativity at its finest,” said Chief Creative Officer Pete Docter. “We’re excited fans won’t have to wait long for more great content from the world of Inside Out. Dream Productions offers up a treasure trove of jokes and fun as it digs deeper into one of our favorite parts of the first film, the making of Riley’s dreams. And we consider Win or Lose a major, first-of-its-kind tentpole series, one that really showcases what I think makes our studio great: bold, imaginative storytelling; laugh-out-loud humor; and characters that we can all relate to.”
