As of now, there is no official release date for Inside Out 3. While Pixar writer Dave Holstein and other sources have confirmed that early development discussions and brainstorming are happening, Disney and Pixar have not formally announced or scheduled the third installment[2][4][6].
Rumors and speculative sources have suggested possible release windows ranging from 2026 to as late as 2028. For example, a concept trailer and fan reports have mentioned a potential 2026 release[1][7], while other sources such as IMDb list possible dates in March or June 2028, but these are not based on official announcements[3]. The creative team behind Inside Out has indicated strong interest in continuing Riley’s story, and the massive success of Inside Out 2 makes a sequel highly likely, but until Disney or Pixar issues a formal statement, any release dates should be considered unofficial speculation[4][5][6].
