As James Gunn prepares for his ambitious DCU reboot, a new DC actor expresses hope to be part of the upcoming project and potentially join the ranks of the Justice League.
Xolo Maridueña’s Optimism For Blue Beetle’s Role
Blue Beetle actor Xolo Maridueña shares his enthusiasm for being included in James Gunn’s DCU reboot during an interview with Empire Magazine. Maridueña expresses readiness for his character’s integration with the Justice League, highlighting their commitment to delivering a stellar film and emphasizing the importance of audience reception.
The Future Of Blue Beetle In The DCU
With Warner Bros.’ marketing material suggesting that Blue Beetle is just the beginning, it appears that the character will play a significant role in James Gunn’s upcoming reboot. As the trailer showcases the film’s fun and exciting tone, Blue Beetle could potentially become DC Studios’ equivalent of Spider-Man. However, as the Justice League undergoes a significant overhaul with the departure of key actors, including Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck, it seems likely that Xolo Maridueña’s Blue Beetle will be joining a new lineup of superheroes, standing alongside James Gunn’s fresh Superman and a new Caped Crusader. The team may also feature a Green Lantern, as the cosmic heroes lead their own show in Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters.
