In ‘Inside Out’, Riley’s emotions are the only ones that do not have the same physical characteristics as their owner
Last week, “Inside Out 2” arrived in cinemas worldwide, a new Disney and Pixar animation that takes us back into the head of Riley, who has now turned 13, and needs to face the onset of puberty, dealing with the arrival of new emotions that promise to mess up the entire control room.
With the arrival of the new production, a big question arose among fans: after all, why don’t Riley’s emotions have similar physical characteristics to hers, as do other people’s?
It is worth remembering that, since the first film, we are sometimes taken into the minds of other characters, such as Riley’s parents, where we can see their emotions, which are presented with similar characteristics to their owners. Like Mr. Andersen’s, for example, who have a mustache, while Mrs. Andersen’s wear glasses.
But, after all, is there any explanation for why Riley’s emotions don’t look like her?
As found by the CBR portal, the most likely answer to this question is that this would have been the way the producers found to differentiate the emotions of the other characters, and give greater prominence to the emotions of Riley, who is the protagonist of the film. However, to date, no official Pixar source has clarified the curious fact.
Even with this possibility, some fans have also theorized that the lack of physical similarities with the girl could be due to Riley’s age, which is still very young and is facing different changes in her body.
Despite making sense, the theory ended up being officially discarded with the release of the second film. This is because, in “Inside Out 2”, the emotions of Riley’s new best friends, Bree and Grace, are also presented in some scenes, who are the same age as the protagonist, and appear with physical characteristics similar to their owners.

“Inside Out 2” is showing in cinemas across Brazil.
