\"\"<\/a>“What? I thought there were only two? And we don’t even know what the second film is and we’re getting a third?”<\/p>\n

Relax. Relax. This will not be a Marvel Studios film. \u00a0Marvel is owned by another movie studio, remember?<\/p>\n

Big Hero 6\u00a0<\/strong>will likely be the first foray of \u00a0Marvel Comics characters into the world of Disney Animation. This is the same arm of Disney that will be releasing\u00a0Wreck-It-Ralph<\/strong> this year and\u00a0Frozen<\/strong> next year.<\/p>\n

The Blue Sky Disney blog<\/a> confirmed an earlier rumor that the adaptation is in the pipeline, although not fully green lit as of yet.<\/p>\n

Big Hero 6\u00a0<\/strong>is a Japanese superhero team that was created by Steven T. Seagle and Duncan Rouleau in 1998 in the pages of\u00a0Alpha Flight<\/strong>. It was later reimagined in a Manga style by Chris Claremont and\u00a0David Nakayama in a 2008 miniseries. I’d wager a bet that the latter will be the inspiration for the kid friendly film.<\/p>\n

One of Marvel’s more obscure teams (even though they have had two miniseries to their name, they haven’t appeared much outside of that), the fact that Big Hero 6 is getting a film means that Disney wasn’t joking about wanting to get their hands on Marvel for their deep pool of intellectual property.<\/p>\n

So, who is on the team? Well, in the comics, one of the members was Silver Samurai. Since he’s going to be a villain in\u00a0The Wolverine<\/strong>, he won’t be showing. Another X-Man, Sunfire, was once leader of the group, but, being a mutant, the rights to him are also owned by Fox.<\/p>\n

What we are left with are heroes based on Manga archetypes with names such as GoGo Tomago and Wasabi-No-Ginger and team members that include a 13-year-old genius with a giant robot bodyguard and a girl whose super powers come from her purse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

If you were waiting for Disney Animation to get their hands on some Marvel Characters, your wait might be over.<\/div>\n
