In celebration of National Streaming Day, Disney+ has released a new trailer and key art for Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Baymax!, streaming exclusively on Disney+ on June 29! In the Baymax! series trailer, the lovable, overbearing robot from Big Hero 6 returns for more healthcare-related capers in the city of San Fransokyo. The generous, inflatable, inimitable healthcare bot is eager to help citizens with whatever they may require, and he’s not afraid to cause trouble to get the job done.
“I thought it would be fun to do a Disney+ series with Baymax interacting with normal folks,” said series creator Don Hall, who helmed 2014’s Oscar-winning film Big Hero 6. “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.”
Baymax! is produced by Roy Conli and Bradford Simonsen. The series’ episodes are directed by Dean Wellins (Eps 1, 2, 6), Lissa Treiman (Ep 3), Dan Abraham (Ep 4), and Mark Kennedy (Ep 5). The screenwriter is Cirocco Dunlap. Scott Adsit returns as the voice of Baymax. Voice talent featured in episodes includes Ryan Potter, Maya Rudolph, Emily Kuroda, Lilimar, Zeno Robinson, and Jaboukie Young-White.
In addition to dropping the Baymax! series trailer, Disney+ debuted key art for the upcoming robot romp of epic proportions. Previously, Baymax also starred in Disney’s Big Hero 6 and Big Hero 6: The Series, which aired for three seasons on Disney XD. The adorable automaton was embraced immediately by Mouseketeers upon his big-screen debut, and audiences have wanted more of him ever since. Now they’ll have their chance when Baymax! comes to Disney+ on June 29.
