Baymax! Trailer
Baymax! is an upcoming animated series coming to Disney Plus. It is a spin-off of the movie Big Hero 6. Unlike the movie origin which is more action-adventure adjacent. This series will be more of a Slice of Life comedy. Slice of Life is a genre of fiction that runs in a plot with no conflict. These stories are usually watched by people who wanted to relax, hence the lack of antagonists and problems. It is more about a realistic depiction of a character’s daily life. So this is a show you can watch when you want to slow down because life has been stressful.
Big Hero 6 was originally a Marvel story but Disney had kept it away from the MCU and made it a stand-alone series. Baymax’s armor though is a tribute to Ironman.
I believe the action will be reserved for the upcoming sequel of the movie. This Inflatable robot won’t be fighting villains on this show. Baymax! will focus on his daily life as a Medical Assistant and Nurse. The Baymax! from this series may not be the one from the film. So it may not be a sequel nor prequel but a separate story from the same universe. The appearance of Aunt Cass may lead to other film characters appearing on this show. It would be cool to see Hiro and the Gang even as cameos.
The Series will focus more on expanding the world of San Fransokyo. Baymax! will be comforting and tending a different patient on each episode. The Trailer showed Baymax! assisting an elderly woman and also teaching kids how to apply bandages. Aunt Cass who is a fan favorite and face of memes from the film will also make a return in the series.
Baymax! will be premiere on Disney+ this coming Summer of 2022.
