Fall Out Boy is featured in new Disney film ‘Big Hero 6’; soundtrack to be released Nov. 4
Fall Out Boy will have a song featured on the new soundtrack to Disney’s upcoming movie “Big Hero 6.”
The song “Immortals” is featured in the film’s sequence where super smart individuals transform into a group of high-tech heroes. “The idea of this kid stepping up on behalf of his brother is what inspired the song’s title ‘Immortals,'” says Fall Out Boy lead singer Patrick Stump said in a news release. “Your victories aren’t exclusively yours, so the fact that all of these people are coming together to help him get to the finish line is really exciting.”
“They’re testing out their new super suits for the first time in the scene,” says bassist Pete Wentz. “Some of it works—some of it doesn’t. You get the sense that they’re stepping into a bigger role.”
According to the official description of the movie, inspired by the Marvel comics of the same name: “Big Hero 6″is comedy-adventure about the special bond that develops between Baymax (voice of Scott Adsit), a plus-sized inflatable robot, andHiro Hamada (voice of Ryan Potter). 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 (voice of Jamie Chung), neatnik Wasabi (voice of Damon Wayans Jr.), chemistry whiz Honey Lemon (voice of Genesis Rodriguez) and fanboy Fred (voice of T.J. Miller). Determined to uncover the mystery, Hiro transforms his friends into a band of high-tech heroes called “Big Hero 6.” The movie is set for release Nov. 7, 2014.
