Although “Blue Beetle” received good reviews from critics and was liked by fans of the genre, it did not translate into the production’s financial results. With a budget of $104 million, the film earned just under $129.2 million, which is the worst commercial result in the entire DCU universe.
It didn’t do well in cinemas. Now coming to HBO Max!
It is worth emphasizing that the bad streak of Warner Bros. Pictures has been going on for some time now. This year’s premieres, such as “Shazam! Wrath of the Gods” and “The Flash”, earned $133 million and $270 million, respectively, which is also not a satisfactory result for the film studio.
Now the first film from the DC universe with a Latino main character will be available on the HBO Max streaming service. All fans of superhero films should save the date November 17, 2023, because on that day the film will appear in the library of the popular VOD platform.
What is “Blue Beetle” about and what is the future of the hero?
It’s a superhero production from Warner Bros. is about a Mexican boy named Jaime who has just finished college. He has lots of plans for the future, but first he decides to return to his hometown. When he gets there, he is shocked because nothing looks like he remembered. Moreover, he suddenly comes into his hands with an ancient object that is a product of alien biotechnology. Thanks to him, he begins to wield powerful powers that change the fate of the young boy.
The main character is played by Xolo Maridueña, who owes his popularity to his participation in the series “Cobra Kai”. Although the “Blue Beetle” movie is part of the canceled DCEU, it is quite possible that the actor will remain in the DC universe. James Gunn and Peter Safran, who are currently building a new universe, do not rule out that the character played by the young actor will become part of it.
