The Scarab has found its host: Fan favorite Xolo Maridueña will star in the upcoming DC/HBO Max film Blue Beetle

The Parenthood and Cobra Kai star will portray Jaime Reyes, the third character to assume the Blue Beetle mantle. The Wrap first broke the news that Maridueña was in talks to portray Jaime, while The Hollywood Reporter’s Aaron Couch later confirmed the news.

In the comics, Reyes is a teenager who finds the Scarab and becomes the third Blue Beetle. It’s currently unknown if Dan Garrett and Ted Kord, the first two Blue Beetles, will appear in the movie.

Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer and Angel Manuel Soto will write and direct the movie, respectively. The film’s premiere date is still unknown, but production will begin in early 2022.

CB's earliest memories are that of tying a blanket around his neck and leaping off the back of the couch in an effort to reenact the heroic deeds of the Super Friends. Over forty years later, not much has changed. blankets have been exchanged for t-shirts, but longboxes overflowing with comics still fill his mind's eye. When he's not being the hero this city needs, CB spends time with his wife and children as well as working in the field of computer security. You can follow him on twitter @cbnostalgia
