Wasabi-No-Ginger, renamed Wasabi, appears in the 2014 animated film Big Hero 6, voiced by Damon Wayans, Jr.. In the film, the character is black.[5][6] Wasabi is depicted as a smart, slightly neurotic, heavily built neat-freak and an expert on laser cutting at the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. Also, he stated his name is a nickname that Fred gave him after he spilled wasabi on his shirt one time. On the character, co-director Chris Williams said "He's actually the most conservative, cautious—he [sic] the most normal among a group of brazen characters. So he really grounds the movie in the second act and becomes, in a way, the voice of the audience and points out that what they're doing is crazy."[6][7][8] This version wears a robotic suit that was built by Hiro that generates plasma blades from the wrists of the suit.
Television
Wasabi appears in Big Hero 6: The Series, with the character voiced by Khary Payton.[9] In the first episode, "Baymax Returns", Wasabi's sudden change from pessimistic to courageous during battle is explained by the fact that he gets a high off of adrenaline.[10]
