Teaser Footage and Release Dates in New Trailer for Pixar's Two New TV Series DREAM PRODUCTIONS and WIN OR LOSE
Disney+ has given fans a first look at each of their new TV series, Dream Productions, from the world of Inside Out, and Win or Lose. Dream Productions is described as an “Inside Out spinoff that focuses on the studio inside Riley’s mind that produces dreams,” and it will debut on the streamer on December 11, 2024.
All four episodes of the limited series will be available at once. The series, announced at D23 in August following the blockbuster success of Inside Out 2, was previously set for 2025.
The logline for Dream Productions reads, in part: “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 features the voices of Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Ally Maki, Kensington Tallman, Liza Lapira, Tony Hale, Lewis Black and Phyllis Smith. Dream Productions is written and directed by Mike Jones and produced by Jaclyn Simon.
The original series Win or Lose, which features Will Forte voicing a little league baseball coach, will come to Disney+ on February 19, 2025. Throughout eight episodes, the series “reveals what it actually feels like to be in the shoes of eight different characters in the week leading up to the big game — the insecure kids, their helicopter parents, even a lovesick umpire — with incredibly funny, very emotional and uniquely animated perspectives,” per Disney. Each episode is said to have a different visual style.
Win or Lose is the first long-form original series from Pixar, as the company’s previous television programs have been based on its existing films. The series is directed, written and executive produced by Carrie Hobson and Michael Yates, and produced by David Lally.
“These two series really show Pixar creativity at its finest,” said Pete Docter, chief creative officer at Pixar. “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.”
These both look like great shows for the whole family to enjoy! Check out the short video with first looks below:
