'Big Hero 6' Sequel 'Baymax!' Announces Release Date With New Trailer
A six-episode Disney+ series.
To celebrate National Streaming Day, Disney+ has released a new official trailer for Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Baymax! The six-episode series is a sequel to 2014’s Oscar-winning film Big Hero 6, offering fans another chance to interact with the benevolent Michelin Man-looking healthcare robot.
In the trailer, Baymax is roaming the streets of San Fransokyo as he searches for citizens in need of assistance. However, his robot expressions are often lost in translation as he slowly learns to socialize. “I thought it would be fun to do a Disney+ series with Baymax interacting with normal folks,” said series creator Don Hall. “In each of our six episodes, Baymax just wants to help someone—and a lot of times they don’t want to be helped. He sets out to fix a physical issue that he’s identified, and in the process, gets to a deeper, more emotional place and can be almost transformative in that role.” The series is produced by Roy Conli and Bradford Simonsen, and Scott Adsit returns as the voice of Baymax.
View the official trailer above and look for Baymax! to premiere on June 29 exclusively on Disney+.
