Big Hero 6 wins best animated feature Oscar

Big Hero 6 has won the best animated film category at the 2015 Oscars, The Guardianreported.

The Disney film, inspired by a Marvel comic, stars Ryan Potter as Hiro, a teenager who builds a robot called Baymax and enlists of a team of five other droids to take on a rogue robotics professor. The film, which is set in the fantasy future city of San Fransokyo, was the collaboration between Winnie the Pooh director Don Hall and Chris Williams, director of Bolt.

The win marks the second victory in a row for Disney in the animation category. Frozen, the hugely popular story of estranged sisters’ reconciliation in an icy dream world, won the Oscar last year, along with best song for Let it Go.

The Academy Awards are taking place at the Dolby theatre in Los Angeles and are being hosted by Gone Girl star Neil Patrick Harris.
