Big Hero 6 is coming back as an animated series on Disney Xd. Come check this out for what we know so far.
Now when I wrote about the first teaser for Big Hero 6 the movie I was very pleased with the concept. Taking a little known Marvel comic and giving it a fresh look on screen was awesome. And it did real well with the fans proving that it was a good gamble. Back in November we were informed the film would get a sequel dubbed Big Hero 7 aimed at 2017 to 2019 for a release. But before that the 6 heroes will debut on the small screen as a Disney Xd show Big Hero 6 The Series debuting in Fall of 2017.
Now we don’t have much except the above teaser but what we do have is our cast for the show. Ryan Potter will reprise his role as Hiro Hamada,...

Disney Animation's Big Hero 6 was a box office hit, but for whatever reason, we’re getting a sequel in the form of a Disney Xd TV series rather than a movie. Now, a teaser has been released which confirms that it will premiere this Fall, and while it doesn't reveal an awful lot about what to expect, we know that the show will pick up immediately where the team’s big screen debut wrapped up back in 2014. Reuniting tech expert Hiro with Wasabi, Honey Lemon, Fred, Go Go, and the loveable Baymax, the group will apparently face, "daunting academic challenges and the social trials of being the little man on campus. Off campus, the stakes are raised for the high-tech heroes as they must protect their city from an array of scientifically enhanced villains." It should be fun, but why aren't we getting a movie? Well, there’s actually...

In 2014, Disney released Big Hero 6, the latest (at the time) in their string of animated films, but the first based on a Marvel property. The result was a resounding success. Critics and fans alike seemed to really enjoy the characters and heart of the film, and while the film went on to make over $650 million at the worldwide box office, there has been no real talk of a sequel. Admittedly, when it comes to sequels, Disney isn't really one to follow through--especially in theaters.
They seem content to continue that trend. While Big Hero 6 will not have a theatrical sequel in the near future, Disney seems to be looking to TV as a way of continuing this brand. According to Collider, Disney Xd has announced that it has started production on Big Hero 6: The Series, which is set to have a worldwide debut sometime in 2017. Mark McCorkle and Bob Schooley,...
