'Big Hero 6' EPs Say New Series 'Feels Like It's Own Thing'

Big Hero 6: The Series is getting closer and closer and we can’t wait!

Executive Producers Bob Schooley and Mark McCorkle opened up about the series and bringing it from the big screen to the small screen.

“It’s a unique show in that we really set out to have a combination of comedy, action and heart,” Bob told TVLine. “It’s a genre that’s not exactly everywhere in cartoons these days. Most of the time, it tends to lean one way or another.”

“Since it’s set in San Fransokyo, which is a mashup of Japanese and American culture, we wanted the animation to reflect that,” he continued. “There are definitely anime expressions and tropes thrown in there. One of our writers is obsessed with anime, so I think she throws things in there that we’re not even aware of.”

Mark added that the changes from the film’s 3D version to 2D made the show “feel like its own thing. It gets to live and breathe as its own entity, separate from the movie.”
