Bing Bong (Inside Out)
Last Updated on: November 15th, 2024
Who is Bing Bong?
Bing Bong is a key character in Pixar’s 2015 animated film Inside Out. He is Riley’s imaginary friend from her early childhood, made up of a playful blend of different creatures—part elephant, part cat, part dolphin, and made of cotton candy—with a body in bright, whimsical colors. Bing Bong represents the joyful, creative, and carefree aspect of Riley’s imagination during her younger years.
Bing Bong plays an important role in helping Joy and Sadness navigate Riley’s mind after they get lost in the long-term memory section. He aids them in trying to get back to “Headquarters,” where Riley’s core emotions operate. Although Bing Bong is filled with optimism and innocence, his arc in the story takes on a bittersweet tone. He ultimately sacrifices himself so that Joy can escape the “Memory Dump,” where forgotten memories fade away. His selfless act allows Joy to return to Headquarters and help Riley rediscover her happiness, but it also marks the fading of Riley’s childhood innocence and imagination.
Bing Bong is voiced by Richard Kind, a talented actor known for his work in both comedic and dramatic roles across film and television.
