The latest offering from Disney Animation comes by way of Marvel, but make no mistake, this one is pure Disney magic, as I say in my video review above.
It’s based on a rather obscure Marvel comic of the same name and marks the first time the comics-driven studio within a studio has been involved in animation. Given how this one has turned out, it surely won’t be the last.
The film was directed by Don Hall and Chris Williams and features a voice cast including Scott Adsit, Ryan Potter, Daniel Henney, T.J. Miller, Jamie Chung, Damon Wayans Jr., Genesis Rodriguez, James Cromwell, Alan Tudyk and Maya Rudolph.
Producers are Roy Conli and Disney Animation/Pixar chief John Lasseter. It opens Friday and promises to be one of the holiday’s big hits, perfect fare for families that don’t have a whole lot of choices right now. But you don’t have to be a kid to like this one.
Are you planning to watch the film? If you see it, let us know what you think.
