When BlueBeetle hits theaters, it won't just be Xolo_Mariduena’s superhero debut; it'll be his first major film ever. DevanCoggan sat down with the 22-year-old actor to chat the next DCU, the inspiration he got from his CobraKai costars, and more:

but now, he's joining the sprawling DC universe, playing young hero Jaime Reyes. It's the first DC film to center on a Latino hero, and it's the big-screen introduction of Jaime, a comics fan favorite who gains superpowers after encountering the Scarab, a piece of highly evolved alien tech.Originally,was set to debut on streaming service HBO Max, before shifting to a theatrical release.

Maridueña speaks with EW about suiting up as a first-time superhero and the inspiration he got from hisENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Take me back to the first time you tried on the Blue Beetle costume. What was that like?] It makes your posture different! It was really fantastic. Also, I didn't really know what to expect going into a big superhero movie like this. I didn't know if it was going to be the type where we were going to be on a green screen for four months or what.

One of the biggest changes from the superhero movies that I've seen and loved — and granted, I haven't seen all of them — but I love that in our story, Jaime gets his powers for the first time in front of his family. I think it helps keep the story so honest and truthful from the get-go. Hiding from mom and dad that I'm Blue Beetle, once that is out of the question, it's such a fun ride. It's a journey the whole family can take together.
