The cast and crew of Inside Out 2 are feeling a lot of positive emotions right now. In just six weeks, the Pixar sequel skipped its way to the top of the record books, becoming the highest-grossing animated film of all time. In doing so, it surpassed a pair of Frozen flicks and last year’s smash hit The Super Mario Bros. Movie, with an impressive worldwide box-office take of $1.46 billion and counting. Not only did Riley and her emotions help Pixar reclaim the top spot, but the movie is also the first film of 2024 to cross the billion-dollar mark.
Meanwhile, another emotion is sabotaging a potential Facts of Life revival: greed. Mindy Cohn, who played Natalie Green in all nine seasons of the sitcom, was recently a guest on SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live and revealed that the late Norman Lear approached the cast about reviving the Diff’rent Strokes spin-off following a positive response from ABC’s Live in Front of a Studio Audience special where episodes from the two shows were re-created. Following the suggestion, the cast “started to consider” a reunion series, but it ultimately never came to fruition as Cohn revealed that one of her co-stars “devastated” the cast by trying to “make a separate deal for a spin-off just for herself.” While Cohn never revealed the culprit, she did provide a few hints to narrow down who is responsible for ruining 40 years of sisterhood.
Thankfully, it’s all laughs on the timeline. Today’s funniest tweets include those about how it feels wearing Uniqlo, humanity’s heroes and the unfortunate look of every Yankees pitcher.
