Having passed the $600 million mark over the weekend and in the wake of the news of Frozen 2 getting the green light, it seems rather likely that Big Hero 6 will also be getting a sequel. And if you ask Genesis Rodriguez (who plays Honeylemon in the movie), it’s a strong possibility.
“There’s rumblings of something else happening,” Rodriguez told Screenrant. “I mean yesterday I just saw that it’s the third most grossing Disney animated feature, so this is huge for them. I doubt that they wouldn’t want to do another one. It was a huge success.”
“Just like comic books, you could make it a complete different story and the superheroes reunited to attack someone else,” she continues. “So it’s a perfect little setup they got for a sequel if they wanted to.”

From Walt Disney Animation Studios, the team behind Frozen and Wreck-It Ralph comes Big Hero 6, an action-packed comedy-adventure about the special bond that develops between Baymax, a plus-sized inflatable robot, and prodigy Hiro Hamada. When a devastating event befalls the city of San Fransokyo and catapults Hiro into the midst of danger, he turns to Baymax and his close friends adrenaline junkie Go Go Tomago, neatnik Wasabi, chemistry whiz Honey Lemon and fanboy Fred. Determined to uncover the mystery, Hiro transforms his friends into a band of high-tech heroes called Big Hero 6.
Big Hero 6 is adapted from the Marvel comic of the same name and is out now on Blu-ray and DVD in the US.
