Production wrapped on Warner Bros.’s “Blue Beetle“.

The director of the Latin-led superhero project Angel Manuel Soto announced the news on his Instagram story.

The blockbuster project finalized principal photography on the island of enchantment after shooting in several cities including Atlanta, Georgia; El Paso, Texas; and Santurce, Puerto Rico.

The movie features Xolo Maridueña, who plays Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle and Raoul Max Trujillo as the antagonist, Carapax the Indestructible Man.

 

"Blue Beetle” also stars George Lopez, Adriana Barraza, Elpidia Carrillo, Damián Alcázar, Belissa Escobedo, Bruna Marquezine and Harvey Guillén.

It also features American actress Susan Sarandon as the villainous Victoria Kord, an original character made for the movie.

Despite Victoria Kord being an original character, her last name certainly rings a bell for the man who donned the alien suit before Reyes was Ted Kord, a genius scientist and occasional member of the Justice League.

It centered around Mexican-American teenager Jaime Reyes (Maridueña) who gains strange armor and superpowers when an alien scarab-like machine fuses with his spine.

The upcoming movie is written by Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer and marks the first live-action feature to be made about a Latinx character by Latinx filmmakers as well as the latest DC superhero to make come to big screens.
