BIG HERO 6 To Get Animated Movie

Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Disney Animation's first Marvel project will be BIG HERO 6, a team of superheroes sanctioned by the government of Japan. They first appeared in their own miniseries and in ALPHA FLIGHT #17. The team was last seen in the recently concluded "Ends of the Earth" story arc in THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN.

This is their currrent roster:
Sunpyre — who can harness the power of solar energy to blast her enemies.

Ebon Samurai — A Japanese police officer who was resurected by Mikaboshi (Japanese god of evil) for one purpose, to get revenge on the Silver Samurai.

Hiro — A 13-year-old boy genius.

Honey Lemon — who can draw practically any object she needs from a mystical purse that’s a portal to another dimension.

Baymax — A giant robot created by Hiro who can shapeshift into a dragon form.

Go-Go Tomago — a woman in a high-tech, voice-controlled suit, who can propel herself through the air in an egg-shaped ball of energy.
Interesting choice by Disney for their first Marvel Animated film.
