With all the heart and humour audiences expect from Walt Disney Animation Studios, BIG HERO 6 is an action-packed comedy-adventure about robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada (voice of Ryan Potter), who learns to harness his genius—thanks to his brilliant brother Tadashi (voice of Daniel Henney) and their like-minded friends: adrenaline junkie Go Go Tomago (voice of Jamie Chung), neatnik Wasabi (voice of Damon Wayans Jr.), chemistry whiz Honey Lemon (voice of Genesis Rodriquez) and fanboy Fred (voice of T.J. Miller). When a devastating turn of events catapults them into the midst of a dangerous plot unfolding in the streets of San Fransokyo, Hiro turns to his closest companion—a robot named Baymax (voice of Scott Adsit)—and transforms the group into a band of high-tech heroes determined to solve the mystery. BIG HERO 6 is directed by Don Hall (Winnie the Pooh) and Chris Williams (Bolt), and produced by Roy Conli (Tangled).
