Disney and Marvel’s co-venture, Big Hero 6, will soon be inescapable. Think about it: two of the world’s biggest studios with a history of box office success, and merchandising strategies that have folks digging into the pockets time and time again. The slant of this imminent release is aimed more at younger children, whose parents will hopefully find some Marvel easter eggs tucked away in the background…
This new trailer that’s arrived online today focuses on the adorable robotic companion of young lad, Hiro Hamada. A robotics prodigy, Hamada (voiced by Ryan Potter) embarks on an adventure when his home city of San Fransokyo is subject to a terrible disaster. Turning to his inflatable buddy Baymax (voiced by 30 Rock’s Scott Adsit) for inspiration, he transforms his friend into a super robot.
There’s a better glimpse at the sweet Baymax in this new trailer, as well as a brief glimpse of the other ‘bots Hamada enlists for his mission. All in all, Disney have got a corking movie on their hands by the looks of it.
Big Hero 6 opens in theatres on November 7, 2014. Scope out the preview below and let us know what you think.
From Walt Disney Animation Studios, the team behind “Frozen” and “Wreck-It Ralph,” comes “Big Hero 6,” an action-packed comedy-adventure about the special bond that develops between Baymax (voice of Scott Adsit), a plus-sized inflatable robot, and prodigy Hiro Hamada (voice of Ryan Potter). When a devastating event befalls the city of San Fransokyo and catapults Hiro into the midst of danger, he turns to Baymax and his close friends adrenaline junkie Go Go Tomago (voice of Jamie Chung), neatnik Wasabi (voice of Damon Wayans Jr.), chemistry whiz Honey Lemon (voice of Genesis Rodriguez) and fanboy Fred (voice of T.J. Miller). Determined to uncover the mystery, Hiro transforms his friends into a band of high-tech heroes called “Big Hero 6.”
Inspired by the Marvel comics of the same name, and featuring breathtaking action with all the heart and humor audiences expect from Walt Disney Animation Studios, “Big Hero 6” is directed by Don Hall (“Winnie the Pooh”) and Chris Williams (“Bolt”), and produced by Roy Conli (“Tangled”). The film hits theaters in 3D on Nov. 7, 2014.
