Tickets are now on sale for Blue Beetle. The latest DC offering lands in theaters on August 18.
In Blue Beetle, an ancient relic known as the Scarab chooses Jaime (Xolo Maridueña) as its host, giving the young man superpowers and throwing him into a battle he never could have anticipated. It’s a fascinating new chapter in the DC universe, so we arranged a Big Ticket interview to get the scoop.
Fandango’s Big Ticket Interview series features in-depth conversations with the casts and creators of the year’s biggest movies. Fandango correspondent Naz Perez sat down with stars Xolo Maridueña, George Lopez, Bruna Marquezine and Belissa Escobedo for a conversation about bringing DC’s first Latino live action superhero to the big screen. They discuss the realistic family relationships at the film’s core, the setting of Palmera City and how the storytelling was influenced by anime like Akira.
Blue Beetle is directed by Angel Manuel Solo and also stars Susan Sarandon, Adriana Barraza and Damián Alcázar. Meet the stars here, and make your plans to see Blue Beetle on August 18, only in theaters. Get your tickets right here at Fandango.
