Adapting the Marvel comic of the same name, Disney Animation's Big Hero 6 hits the big screen in November (in America. We on this side of the pond have to wait till January), and so far we have seen very little from the project, save for a teaser and brief video (here and here). Now, the full voice cast has been announced, and what a voice cast it is, with some extremely reliable comedy actors, best known for their t.v. work, making up the titular super hero team.
Hiro Hamada: Ryan Potter (Fred: The Show)
Baymax: Scott Adsit (30 Rock)
Fred: T.J. Miller (Silicon Valley, Transformers: Age of Extinction)
Go Go Tomago: Jamie Chung (Sucker Punch, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For)
Honey Lemon: Genesis Rodriguez (Entourage, The Last Stand)
Wasabi: Damon Wayans, Jr. (New Girl, The Other Guys)
Rounding out the cast are Maya Rudolph as Aunt Cass, James Cromwell as Professor Callaghan, and Alan Tudyk as Alistair Krei (marking his third Disney cartoon in a row, having voiced King Candy in Wreck-It Raplh, and the Duke of Weselton in Frozen).
Released: November 7th USA / Feb 13th 2015 UK & IRELAND
