help Blue Beetle FAQ
How does Jaime Reyes become Blue Beetle?
The alien Scarab named Khaji-Da bonds permanently with Jaime after Jenny Kord hides it inside a fast-food box. It forms an armored exosuit around him and can create weapons in response to threats.
Who is the other Blue Beetle referenced in the movie?
Jenny's father, Ted Kord, was an earlier Blue Beetle who relied on gadgets rather than Scarab armor. His disappearance, hidden laboratory, Bug aircraft, and recorded message establish a mystery beyond Jaime's first adventure.
Is Blue Beetle set in the DCEU or the new DC Universe?
The 2023 film was released during the transition away from the DCEU and tells a largely self-contained story in Palmera City. James Gunn later stated that Xolo Maridueña's Blue Beetle would continue in the new DC continuity, although that does not make every event or supporting character automatically transferable.
Who are the main villains in Blue Beetle?
Susan Sarandon plays Victoria Kord, who wants to weaponize Scarab-derived technology through the OMAC program. Raoul Max Trujillo plays Ignacio Carapax, a soldier transformed into the heavily armored OMAC prototype.
