Fans of Disney's "Big Hero 6" eagerly wait for the official cast and characters announcement from Disney. But the long wait is officially over now that the studio has finally released photos and information about the new movie.
Disney confirms that the movie will feature stars, T.J. Miller, Jamie Chung, and Maya Rudolph, as well as Nicktoons star Ryan Potter, "30 rock" alum Scott Adsit, "Let's Be Cops'" Damon Wayans Jr., "Identity Thief's" Genesis Rodriguez, James Cromwell, Allan Tudyk, and Daniel Henney.
Along with the cast announcement, official character photos and their backgrounds were also revealed:
Ryan Potter will be playing the young protagonist Hiro.
"His state-of-the-art battle-bots dominate the underground bot fights held in the dark corners of San Fransokyo. Fortunately, big brother Tadashi redirects Hiro's brilliance, inspiring him to put his brain to the test in a quest to gain admission to the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. When a tragic event changes everything, Hiro turns to a robot named Baymax, and they form an unbreakable bond-and two-sixths of a band of high-tech heroes on a very important mission."
"Baymax (voiced by Scott Adsit) cares. That's what he was designed to do. The plus-sized inflatable robot's job title is technically Healthcare Companion: With a simple scan, Baymax can detect vital stats, and, given a patient's level of pain, can treat nearly any ailment. Conceived and built by Tadashi Hamada, Baymax just might revolutionize the healthcare industry. But to the inventor's kid brother Hiro, the nurturing, guileless bot turns out to be more than what he was built for-he's a hero, and quite possibly Hiro's closest friend. And after some deft reprogramming that includes a rocket fist, super strength and rocket thrusters that allow him to fly, Baymax becomes one of the Big Hero 6."
T.J. Miller plays Fanboy Fred.
"Fanboy Fred comes off like a laid-back dude with no direction. But this sign-twirling, monster-loving, comic-book aficionado is sure to go places-when he's good and ready. For example, Fred doesn't hesitate to join "Big Hero 6," and he has a lot of ideas for his super-hero skillset, too. His ferocious, fire-breathing alter ego comes complete with claws, integrated communications and a super bounce. But his sign-spinning may still come in handy."
Jamie Chung voices Go Go Tomago.
"She's tough, athletic and loyal to the bone, but not much of a conversationalist. Popping bubble gum and delivering well-placed sarcasm are totally her speed. The daredevil adrenaline junkie is at her best on wheels, and when Go Go joins forces with Big Hero 6, she rolls like never before, using maglev discs as wheels, shields and throwing weapons."
Honey Lemon, part time barista and chemist of the bunch, will be voiced by Genesis Rodriguez.
"Honey may be as sweet as her namesake, but she has a fire in her belly and a can-do attitude that make her pretty much unstoppable."
"Wasabi (voiced by Damon Wayans Jr.) is committed to precision. He's super smart and just a touch neurotic, but the big and burly neatnik can't help but join the cause when Hiro needs him most. As part of "Big Hero 6," Wasabi amplifies his martial arts skills with jaw-dropping plasma blade weaponry. Sharp doesn't even begin to describe this guy."
