Big Hero 6 | November 7, 2014 | Now available on home video

[Spidey Freak]

WDAS are usually good with voices, I think they'll be one big name in the cast with the rest with semi known actors. Disney have gone for names in the past, Robin Williams as the Genie as Aladdin, Eddie Murphy in Mulan, Jeremy Irons in Lion King to name but a few.

 

How big was Jeremy Irons before TLK? But I agree, that would be the best strategy for BH6, to hire just one big name. Most probably for the villain.

Lion King had loads of names, James Earl Jones, Nathan Lane, Rowan Atkinson, Matthew Broderick, think Jeremy Irons had done a few movies before Lion King.

He wasn't like superstar famous, but he was certainly known, and had won the Oscar for Best Actor just a few years earlier.

I think Disney screwed up big time by not having the Frozen Bluray/dvd open with a Big Hero 6 teaser. Talk about missing the opportunity to build up hype early. Oh well.

Yup, but that requires pushing Bluray/DVD to June at the earliest.

The Princess and the Frog bluray/dvd opened with a Tangled teaser, not much but it was something. The dvd was also released in mid March like Frozen.

As predicted, no sign of BH6 on the Marvel Studios special tonight either.

[Spidey Freak]

They are waiting for the Frozen cultural whirlwind to cool down (pun intended) before introducing the next thing on the horizon.

 

Damn, poor BH6 has got its work cut out. What a nightmare having to follow up after freakin' Frozen!

Nobody's going to expect it to do anywhere near Frozen numbers, so, ... no pressure?

Except from WDAS. Why can't you be MORE like your amazing big sister, BH6?

[23IsEverywhere]

Damn you BH6 only 350M DOM and 950M WW

Frozen in Japan is starting to pick up steam... It is tracking at double its Tuesday numbers for Wednesday

HAHA! Beat you by that much.

[Blankments]

Hoping Jason Ritter, Linda Cardellini, and Kristen Schaal are cast as well 

[Spidey Freak]

Good casting.

[Dingdong123]

Finally some news! Curious as to who will play Hiro. And I need some HD concept art or stills!

[Spidey Freak]

Hiro will be a child actor, most probably a newbie or the one who played Young Kristoff in Frozen.

The Disney artists I spoke to at ECCC (Brittney Lee and Victoria Ying) both seemed quite enthused about BH6. Ying indicated that TJ Miller as Fred is amazing.
