The 'Inside Out 2' star was asked by interviewer Jake Hamilton to name a 'classic Disney character' she'd like to get into the head of—and her answer was decidedly not Disney.

Maya Hawke made quite the hilarious blunder while promoting Inside Out 2.

The cast of the Disney sequel was asked by Jake Hamilton:


"Who is a great classic Disney character you'd love to go in the head of, meet their emotions and just figure out what the hell is going on up there?"

Hawke, who plays Anxiety in the film, chimed in first:

"Shrek."
"I'd love to know..."

Shrek, of course, is a DreamWorks character.

The host quickly cut her off and filled her in:

"That's not a Disney character."

A visibly mortified Hawke replied:

"No. I'm so sorry. I got it."
"I'm so sorry. I'm so embarrassed."
"Thank you for catching me. Just... Oh my god. wow."

You can watch below.

People on social media were highly entertained by the Stranger Things actor's gaffe.

Some, however, found it quite appropriate that Hawke was cast as Anxiety in the film.

Thats the right answer Maya. #movies #films #filmtok #movietok #insideout2 #mayahawke #pixar.






Others shared they, too, got a chuckle out of Hawke's awkward mistake.



But they also get it.



Costars Amy Poehler, Lewis Black, Tony Hale, Paul Walter Hauser and Liza Lapira shared their responses, as well, and yes, they were all Disney characters: Snow White, Goofy, Sully, Buzz Lightyear and Russell, the boy from Up, respectively.

People Share Purchases Under $20 That Made Their Lives Way Easier

Sometimes, in an effort to improve our lives in some capacity requires us to make a significant dent in our bank account.

Even though it might be yogurt for dinner for a few weeks after, we still feel good about our expensive purchases when we see the difference a high-powered washing machine makes, or feel the cool air from our upgraded air conditioner.

Man Goes Viral After 3D-Printing A 6-Pound Phone Case To Combat Screen Addiction

Many Millennials will remember back in the nineties as the last of the "latchkey kids" who were prominently babysat by their televisions, and the commercials that rolled out, made popular on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, promoting kids to go play outside instead of watching TV all day.

Now in 2025, videos on Instagram and TikTok encouraging people to "pause their scroll" and to "put down their phones" are becoming more common and popular, because people are realizing how detrimental our increasing screen time is to our emotional, physical, and psychological health.

Woman Sparks Heated Debate After Encouraging People To Smile At Walmart Greeters

There's an old saying that goes, "It costs nothing to be kind."

Smiling at a stranger, saying hi back to a young and socialable child, holding a door for someone, and maybe even exchanging a pleasantry or two at the checkout line costs nothing more than a few words passing our lips and showing a little kindness.
