LOS ANGELES -- Never fear, Fear is here.

We've already experienced Sadness (Monday), Disgust (Tuesday) and Anger (Wednesday) this week. Now, it's time to be very afraid -- and that's a good thing because it means we're one step closer to Joy (Friday).

So without further aversion, Mashable presents Fear, the fourth of five character posters for Disney/Pixar's Inside Out.

The voice cast of Inside Out shared some thoughts with Mashable about their respective characters. The club's hottest new member is Bill Hader, the voice of Fear:

Is there any reason to be afraid, really?

I play Fear. He's kind of a put-upon, middle management guy. He always seems afraid that he will lose his job, but he is his job, so that won't happen.

Why do you think you were cast to play this emotion?

Because I am in a perpetual state of fear.

Yikes. When's the last time something set you off?

When my daughter asked me where babies come from.

TOMORROW: Meet Joy (Amy Poehler).

Here's Pixar's official synopsis for Inside Out:

Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it's no exception for Riley, who is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Like all of us, Riley is guided by her emotions -- Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center inside Riley’s mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley's main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house and school.
