Just when it seemed as if the wait for Pixar’s Win or Lose was nearly over, the studio announced today that the world will have to wait just a little bit longer.
Originally given a December release date at this year’s D23, a press release pushed out by Disney Tuesday revealed that the series’ debut has been delayed until February of next year.
But the news wasn’t all bad. On the heels of the success of Inside Out 2 (and ahead of the film’s premiere on Disney+ this week), it was revealed that the film’s spin-off, titled Dream Productions, would be coming out in December instead.
So the first four episodes of Dream Productions will be hitting Disney+ exclusively on December 11th, while Win Or Lose will debut on February 19th, 2025.

Taking place in between the events of Inside Out and Inside Out 2, Dream Productions is an all-new series about the studio inside Riley’s mind where dreams really do come true—every night, on time and on budget. Riley is growing up and when her memories need some extra processing, Joy and the rest of the Core Emotions send them to Dream Productions. Acclaimed director Paula Persimmon (voice of Paula Pell) faces a nightmare of her own: Trying to create the next hit dream after being paired up with Xeni (voice of Richard Ayoade), a smug daydream director looking to step up into the big leagues of night dreams.
Also featuring the voices of Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Ally Maki, Kensington Tallman, Liza Lapira, Tony Hale, Lewis Black and Phyllis Smith, the hilarious, mockumentary-style series is written and directed by Mike Jones and produced by Jaclyn Simon.
Win or Lose reveals what it actually feels like to be in the shoes of eight different characters in the week leading up to the big game—the insecure kids, their helicopter parents, even a lovesick umpire—with incredibly funny, very emotional and uniquely animated perspectives.
Featuring the voice of Will Forte as the coach, Win or Lose is directed, written and executive produced by Carrie Hobson and Michael Yates, and produced David Lally.
