Dream Productions is an upcoming American animated series produced by Pixar Animation Studios for the streaming service Disney+. Developed and created by Mike Jones, it serves as a interquel set between the events of Inside Out (2015) and Inside Out 2 (2024). Dream Productions follows Paula Persimmon (Paula Pell) who teams with Xeni (Richard Ayoade) to create the next big tween-dream.

Jones was announced to be creating a series based on Inside Out at Pixar in June 2023. The series was being produced concurrently with the sequel film Inside Out 2. Its title was unveiled in May 2024.

Dream Productions is set to premiere on Disney+ in 2025.

Synopsis

edit

From the world of Inside Out comes Dream Productions, an all-new Disney+ series about the studio inside Riley's mind where dreams really do come true—every night, on time and on budget, thanks to acclaimed director Paula Persimmon (voice of Paula Pell). Riley's growing up and her core Emotions are on the job helping her navigate, but now Paula is facing a nightmare of her own: her signature combination of dreams featuring Rainbow Unicorn and copious amounts of glitter just isn't working anymore. To try and save her career, Paula teams up with Xeni, an overly confident daydream director looking for his next big break. With differing visions on what makes Riley's dreams successful, can the reluctant pair come together to create the next big tween-dream hit?[1]

In August 2024, Jones revealed he would executive produce the series, as well as serve as director alongside Valerie LaPointe and Austin Madison, with Jaclyn Simon as producer.[5] Paula Pell was also confirmed to reprise her role as Dream Director from the first film to star as the main protagonist in the series.[6][7]
