The news out of D23 Expo may have been dominated by Avengers: Infinity War, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, theme park expansions, and an amazing slate of upcoming animated movies, but there was still good news for San Fransokyo’s greatest protectors, Big Hero 6! DisneyXD dropped the first look at the opening credit sequence from Big Hero 6: The Series, and it’s coming to television very soon!
Naturally, Baymax, the breakout character from the movie, gets most of the play in this video. Baymax’s bond with Hiro Hamada is also touched upon as Big Hero 6 swings into action. It’s a little bit jarring to see the 3D characters as in 2D animation, but so far, it looks good!
Almost the entire cast from the film are reprising their roles for television, including Ryan Potter as Hiro, Scott Adsit as Baymax, Jamie Chung as GoGo Tomago, Génesis RodrÃguez as Honey Lemon, Maya Rudolph as Aunt Cass, and Stan Lee as Fred’s Dad. Khary Payton is taking over the role of Wasabi from Damon Wayans, Jr., while Brooks Wheelan is stepping into T.J. Miller’s role as Fred.
The first season of Big Hero 6: The Series will have 21 episodes and it will reportedly take place shortly after the first film, as Hiro returns to the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology and protects the city from scientifically enhanced villains alongside his new friends. The series is debuting this fall on DisneyXD, and it has already been renewed for a second season.
