"Disney has unveiled plans for its first movie inspired by a Marvel comic. Big Hero 6, based on Steven T Seagle and Duncan Rouleau&amp;#039;s Tokyo-set comic series from 1998, will be directed by Winnie the Pooh&amp;#039;s Don Hall for release in 2014.      The CGI blockbuster will revolve around a team of state-sanctioned superheroes in the city of San Fransokyo. Robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada and his robot sidekick BayMax will be the film&amp;#039;s central characters. Hall told the Los Angeles Times that getting to make Big Hero 6 is &amp;quot;geek wish fulfilment&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;I was looking for something on the obscure side, something that would mesh well with what we do,&amp;quot; said Hall. &amp;quot;The idea of a kid and a robot story with a strong brother element, it&amp;#039;s very Disney.&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;Marvel properties take place in the real world. We were looking for something to do where we could make our own world - bring in the Japanese influences, have recognisable landmarks mashed up with a Japanese aesthetic.&amp;quot; Disney Animation is producing Big Hero 6, with Marvel chief creative officer Joe Quesada involved in the project.
