Released in 2014, Big Hero 6 proved to be a big hit for Disney; taking over $657 million worldwide and becoming the highest grossing animated film of that year.
Variety reports that production on the series has already begun, with Mark McCorkle and Bob Schooley lined up to executive produce the show. The pair are also the creators and producers of Disney Channel’s Kim Possible . In a statement, president and chief creative officer of Disney Channels Worldwide, Gary Marsh
said:
“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to further
develop these characters into a world-class animated
series — full of fun, action and the kind of endearing
storytelling that only Mark, Bob — and Baymax — can
deliver.”
The Big Hero 6 series will pick up where the film left off; following Hiro and Baymax as Hiro takes up his place to study robotics at the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. Honey-Lemon, Wasabi, Fred, and Go-Go, who together with Hiro and Baymax make up the Big Hero 6, will feature in the series too, as the team try to protect their city from scientifically enhanced villains. Away from their super-hero adventures, the series will continue also focus on Hiro as he adapts to his new academic challenges and being such a young prodigy on campus.
