Big Hero 6 (cancelled CGI film)

Big Hero 6 was an unreleased computer-animated fantasy adventure film produced by Fox Feature Animation in Century City and Marvel Entertainment from 1999 until its cancellation in 2009. Based on the fairy tale of the same name by Hans Christian Andersen, it was set to be directed by Alan Perkins and written by Perkins, Jordan Roberts, Phillip Melton, Drew Cohen, Chris Renaud and Jon Vitti from a story by Perkins and Lori Fotter, and was to star the voices of Frankie Muniz, Tom Cruise, Jesse Eisenberg, Freddie Prinze Jr., Seth Green and Eric McCormack.

The film was originally planned for a July 2007 release by 20th Century Fox, but was delayed to 2008. In mid 2005, Fox moved the film to 2011, and announced Perkins as the director of Ant-N-Grasshopper, which he was directing concurrently with Big Hero 6. However, in April 2009, the project was abandoned by Fox due to script problems. Many elements of the script were used by Disney for their released version of the film in 2014.
