Scott Adsit
A veteran of Chicago's Second City improv theatre, Scott Adsit is best known for two very different sidekicks. On '30 Rock' (2006-2013) he was Pete Hornberger, the long-suffering producer and voice of reason amid the show's mayhem. In animation he became the huggable healthcare robot Baymax in 'Big Hero 6' (2014), a role he has reprised across its series and shorts. He also spent years writing, producing and voicing characters on the stop-motion cult series 'Moral Orel' (2005-2008). Adsit specialises in exasperated decency: the calm center of comic storms.
