Although the official announcement for BIG HERO 6 arrived last summer, Disney and Marvel haven’t said much about the film since. However, with a scheduled US release date of 7th November 2014 looming in the not-so-distant future, some news has surfaced about a co-director.
BOLT co-writer/director Chris Williams has reportedly signed on as co-director alongside MEET THE ROBINSONS writer Don Hall, with TANGLED producer Roy Conli also attached to the project. Some may say that these additions don’t fare well for Marvel/Disney, as it’s perceived that ‘too many cooks spoil the broth’ (or the film’s already in trouble). That being said, the plot sounds quite cool – set in San Fransokyo, six superheroes (Hiro Hamada, robot Baymax, Gogo, Honey Lemon, chef Wasabi and…Fred) must team together to help bring down a criminal plot threatening to destroy their beloved city.
That’s all we know for now, but keep checking back here on the site for more information (voice castings, anyone?) when it’s announced.
