During a recent press visit to San Francisco and Pixar Studios, we had the chance to chat with Director Pete Docter and Producer Jonas Rivera about INSIDE OUT. If you haven’t seen it, Disney•Pixar’s INSIDE OUT ventures inside the mind to find out what’s going on in the head of an 11 year old girl (Riley).

Disney•Pixar’s INSIDE OUT will be available on Digital HD and Disney Movies Anywhere tomorrow (Tuesday, October 13th), and on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray Combo Pack and On-Demand November 3rd.
The home release version includes an extensive line-up of bonus features including the deleted scene above, the theatrical short film LAVA and an all-new animated short “Riley’s First Date?” We were also able to screen “Riley’s First Date?” during the press junket, and talk with its director as well as the actors who voiced Riley (Kaitlyn Dias) and her Dad (Kyle MacLachlan). Stay tuned for their thoughts on this new short, and click here to catch the “Train of Thought” and read our full review of Disney•Pixar’s INSIDE OUT.
