Production notes
Walt Disney Animation Studios first movie inspired by a Marvel comic book series, an obscure 1998 series written by Steven T. Seagle and Duncan Roulea.
Inspired by a little-known Japan-set Marvel series about a team of state-sanctioned superheroes, the film will center on a boy named Hiro Hamada and his beloved robot companion BayMax who join a team of crime fighters in a mythical mash-up high-tech city called San Fransokyo.
In late 2013, Chris Williams was paired with existing director Don Hall as co-directors, while Roy Conli was brought in to replace Kristina Reed as producer.
Big Hero 6 did very well at the box office, bringing in $222,527,828 in North America, and $429,600,000 in other countries, for a total of over 650 million dollars.
This was the 54th film in the official Disney list of animated films.
Accompanied theatrically with the Disney short The Feast
