“In the lead-up to production for “Inside Out 2,” Disney reportedly offered lead Poehler $5 million for her voice services, while the rest of the cast received offers of only $100k (and zero bonuses). Everyone (rightfully) balked at that number, but Disney’s improved offer still wasn’t enough for Hader and Kaling, so their characters, Fear and Disgust, won’t be in the upcoming sequel. But how do you make “Inside Out 2,” ostensibly about Riley, the same girl from the original, as she goes through adolescence without feeling Fear or Disgust? This writer has no idea, but audiences will find out soon enough.

So, what’s Disney and Pixar’s logic here? Puck mentions that Disney’s current reputation is to go super-cheap on voice talent for animated films. Puck also note that talent fees for the recent Emmy winner “Chip N’ Dale: Rescue Rangers” were “laughably low,” with participating stars doing so as a favor to director Akiva Schaffer. Favors for friends are a kind of currency, sure, but they’re cold, hard cash. That offer to Hader, Kaling, and the rest of the supporting cast of “Inside Out 2” is laughably insulting. If the reports are true, Poehler makes fifty times the amount of money of anybody else on the cast; that’s absurd.”

 

Fuck cheap Chapek.

Incredibly dumb decision by Cheapek. The first Inside Out was a breakout hit, just give Kaling and Hader a higher paycheck

Nobody is seeing that movie because of who's voicing the side characters. 

 

Who even knew Bill Hader was in Inside Out before today?

My comment was in response to the rumours of Disgusting and Fear being cut of the sequel because of salaries. If those characters are on the sequel but their VAs are replaced, well yeah, not a big loss.
