Everything to know about Blue Beetle star Xolo Mariduena including his height, age, previous movie and TV roles, and more.
As the DCU continues to evolve, a new hero has emerged on the scene and his name is Jaime Reyes.
Fresh out of college, Jaime makes his way back home with big dreams of the doors his college degree will open for him. Unfortunately, he quickly finds out how tough it is out in the work field even when you do have a degree, sending him on a search for his big break. Ironically, it’s Jaime’s quest to find a job that puts him on an unexpected path to meeting Jenny Kord, whose family owns a major global company that specializes in defense.
After his encounter, Jaime ends up in possession of a piece of ancient alien biotechnology, the Scarab, which chooses Jaime to be its symbiotic host and transforms him into the Blue Beetle. Jaime’s superhero origin plays out in the new DC Comics movie from Warner Bros. Discovery with the amazing Xolo Mariduena bringing the character to life.
