When you voice a part in a feature film, you spend a lot of time in recording sessions trying to get a character just right. However, spending such an elongated period voicing one individual can make it hard to say goodbye. For Baymax voice actor Scott Adsit, though, he didn't have to bid farewell to this cuddly robot for long. A few years after "Big Hero 6" hit movie theaters everywhere, news broke that "Big Hero 6: The Series" was headed to television, and the producers wanted Adsit back to voice Baymax again.

Talking to Collider, Adsit revealed that the first talks about the TV happened relatively soon after "Big Hero 6" debuted and that it was initially seen as a project to keep the crew busy while everyone took their time crafting a proper "Big Hero 6" sequel. "The series was set up pretty well, in the closing credits of the movie, when you saw hints of what their adventures were," Adist explained regarding the program. "I think they took that idea and just made it into a whole series, which I really like." Adsit also expressed initial excitement over getting to engage in more light-hearted adventures, rather than just explorations of grief, with the character of Baymax. Beyond that, after all the time Adsit spent voicing "Baymax" for "Big Hero 6," it must've been nice to return to a familiar robotic role.
