'Big Hero 6: The Series' Gets Super Sneak Preview From Disney XD
Disney treated Big Hero 6 fans to an extended sneak preview of the continuing adventures of Hiro, Baymax, Fred, Go Go, Honey Lemon, and Wasabi from the new Disney XD animated series. And from what we can see in the following clip, sometimes something as simple as an espresso or cappuccino can require a little more than just super-heroics:
Disney XD's Big Hero 6: The Series features Ryan Potter (Hiro Hamada), Scott Adsit (Baymax), Genesis Rodriguez (Honey Lemon), Jamie Chung (GoGo Tomago), Maya Rudolph (Aunt Cass), Alan Tudyk (Alistair Krei) and Stan Lee (Fred's wealthy father) returning to their original roles from the Walt Disney Animation Studios' Academy Award-winning movie. Rounding out the cast are Brooks Wheelan as Fred (taking over from T.J. Miller) and Khary Payton as Wasabi (taking over from Damon Wayans, Jr.).
Here is Disney XD's take on Big Hero 6: The Series:
"The Disney Television Animation-produced series picks up immediately following the events of the feature film and continues the adventures and friendship of 14-year-old tech genius Hiro and his compassionate, cutting-edge robot Baymax. Along with their friends Wasabi, Honey Lemon, Go Go and Fred, they form the legendary superhero team Big Hero 6 and embark on high-tech adventures as they protect their city from an array of scientifically enhanced villains. In his normal day-to-day life, Hiro faces daunting academic challenges and social trials as the new prodigy at San Fransokyo Institute of Technology.
From the studio that created "Frozen," "Tangled" and "Wreck-It Ralph," the Academy Award-winning "Big Hero 6" is the 54th animated feature from Walt Disney Animation Studios. The film was inspired by the Marvel comic created by Man of Action. The action-packed comedy centers on the special bond that develops between an inflatable robot and a young prodigy as they and their close friends seek to solve a mystery that threatens the city of San Fransokyo."
Created by Mark McCorkle and Bob Schooley (Kim Possible), Big Hero 6: The Series has already received a second season order ahead of the show's November premiere. Big Hero 6 the film earned $222.5 million in North America, with a worldwide estimated total of $657.8 million that made it: the highest-grossing animated film of 2014; the third-highest-grossing non-Pixar animated film from Disney; and the 16th-highest-grossing animated film of all time.
