Jillian Marie "Jill" O'Riley-Andersen is a supporting character of the Disney/Pixar film Inside Out. She is a 34-year-old woman (35 at the end of the film) voiced by Diane Lane. She is Riley Andersen's mother and Bill Andersen's wife.

Inside Out[]

Jill appears in Inside Out in the first scene, and a few other scenes.

Riley's First Date?[]

Jill appears again in Riley's First Date after the title is shown. She is shown trying to talk like the cool kids in Riley Andersen's school.

Background[]

Personality[]

Jill is very kind and motherly for Riley, and she helps her family get through tough times, like the big move. She is very understanding. There are times when she isn't patient with her husband because of his oblivious personality (she thinks she shouldn't have turned down her chance to marry a handsome Brazilian copter pilot) but she still loves him. She also loves Riley and does her best to understand Riley, especially as their move negatively affects Riley's personality. Since Sadness seems to be the leader of her emotions (but is not a weeping mess like Riley's Sadness), it is possible this is where her understanding and compassionate nature comes from as sadness represents the ability to empathize with others or that she might've had a rough past.

Appearance[]

Jill's hair is brown and usually is up in a ponytail. She has noticeably long neck and wide hips. She wears red glasses. A yellow button up shirt, blue pants and brown loafers on her feet. A yellow sweater with a grey stripe, blue pants and pink socks. Grey button up shirt , black pants. A purple sweater with blue pants and black ballet flats on her feet. In Inside Out 2, her swimwear is two-piece purple bikini.

Trivia[]

  • As written on the back of Jill's credit-card, her name is "K. Ann Anderson". However, the Essential Guide states that her given name is Jill.[1] Her Disney.com profile also states her name as Jill Andersen.[2]
  • As Jill's main emotion is Sadness, it has led many to believe that Riley's mother is, or was at one point, depressed.
  • Jill is shown, in flashbacks, to have once had infatuation with a Brazilian helicopter pilot.
