Film
Fred appears in Disney's 2014 animated film Big Hero 6, voiced by T.J. Miller. In the film, he is depicted as a laid-back comic book fan who works as the mascot at the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. Speaking of Miller, co-director Chris Williams said "He's a real student of comedy. There are a lot of layers to his performance, so Fred ended up becoming a richer character than anyone expected." In the film, Fred has a suit built for him by Hiro which resembles a giant lizard and allows him to leap great distances and shoot fire. In the post-credits scene, Fred accidentally opens a secret door in his home, in which he finds superhero costumes and equipment. These belong to his father (voiced by Stan Lee and animated in his likeness), a retired superhero, who unexpectedly returns from his vacation and says that he and Fred have much to talk about.
