Disney’s Big Hero 6 comes home next month

The latest animated blockbuster from Disney is on the way to home video, and should hit stores and digital download services at the top of February.

A smash hit in theaters, BIg Hero 6 was a pretty big success for Disney. It also expanded the Marvel line of properties for the company into the ‘kids’ demographic in a terrific way. True, it’s not a part of the Marvell Cinematic Universe, but it’s a standalone film that proved that Marvel’s stable can sometimes work as a separate entity all unto themselves if they’re a little too, uh, weird for the MCU proper.

For the home release, Big Hero 6 will of course have a bunch of special extras not seen in theaters. And actually, the digital release will have some stuff that you won’t find in the disc-based version either, and vice-versa. Check out the full list of features below for both editions of the film, and then mark your calendar, Big Hero 6 hits digital release on February 3rd, and Blu Ray and DVD on the 24th.
