Inside Riley, there will now be a room of secrets in which two new characters will live: a dog named Bloofywhich was part of Riley’s favorite 2D children’s show as a child, and Lance Slashbladea video game character played by Yong Yea whose design is reminiscent of the characters of final fantasy.
Lance Slashblade will stand out for having a pixelated animation and for the moments full of humor that he will contribute to the footage, turning his appearance into a kind of “Keanu Reeves’ Duke Caboom in toy story 4”, according to the magazine.
Additionally, this video game character will be very important to Riley, since he was his first loveas the film’s director points out, Kelsey Mann:
“When you are a teenager and you don’t have a partner, you start to fall in love. And sometimes it’s not just people, but cartoon characters. I say this from experience,” admitted the director of Inside Out 2. “Or video game characters. We thought, “Oh, that would be great. Riley could fall in love with a video game character”.
