Looks like Baymax needs to learn boundaries and take a step back to understand humans when they say they don’t need him. Look, he’s cute and inflatable, but he’s also still a sentient robot who can smother you to death with his softness.

The film’s leads are set to return for this series, including Scott Adsit as Baymax, Ryan Potter as Hiro, and Maya Rudolph as Aunt Cass. It doesn’t seem like the rest of the Hero 6 crew is featured much, if at all, as the series leans more into cutesy health adventures over mech suit squad action. Baymax doesn’t even don his armor—his power is concern.
“In each of our six episodes, Baymax just wants to help someone—and a lot of times they don’t want to be helped. He sets out to fix a physical issue that he’s identified, and in the process, gets to a deeper, more emotional place and can be almost transformative in that role,” series creator Don Hall, director of 2014’s Big Hero 6, shared in a press release.
