Xolo Maridueña, Adriana Barranza and Damián Alcázar will star in the upcoming origin story.
Every superhero needs a powerful suit that can help them defeat any threat that might stand in their way, and Blue Beetle is ready for audiences to meet him later this summer. Thanks to Empire Magazine, audiences can get a new look at the latest DC character to make his big screen debut. Xolo Maridueña will be in charge of portraying Jaime Reyes, a teenage college graduate who is about to see his life turned upside down when he is granted powers beyond his imagination.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT After Jaime is done with college, he decides it's time to head back to his hometown. While he expected life to be calm after the hurdles of going through obtaining his degree as an outstanding teenager, nothing would be normal for him anymore after crossing paths with the Scarab. The ancient alien technological device materializes the armor around him, allowing Reyes to become the Blue Beetle.
And what could be more dangerous to Jaime is the fact that, if he doesn't learn how to be a hero fast enough, his family might be caught in the crossfire. Damián Alcázar will play the protagonist's father, while Adriana Barranza will portray the hero's grandmother. Family seems to be a very important aspect of Reyes' life, and protecting them at all costs will become one of his top priorities as an amateur hero.
