The superhero film genre is not going through its best moment, and a good example of this is the amount of money that some Marvel and DC films have obtained in recent years, with such resounding failures as those of Aquaman, The Marvels or , recently, Blue Beetle. The Blue Beetle from DC Comics arrived as the first film under the mandate of James Gunn (although it was already shot before), and it was a resounding setback for the company's accounts. However, it has now been confirmed that will return with a new animated series.
Although the decision may catch us by surprise, especially given the financial results of the film, Deadline has confirmed that Blue Beetle will have an animated series soon, and that the intention will be none other than to create a new story for the character who already debuted on the big screen, to try to give continuity to the character in the new DC universe.
Blue Beetle will have a new animated series
Although there are not many details about the series, it has been assured that it will not be a reboot, so, as we have mentioned, it seems that the intention is none other than to give it more consistency in the universe created by James Gunn. For now, it has not been confirmed whether Xolo Maridueña will reprise the role of the superhero, this time providing his voice for the character. However, what has been confirmed is who will be in charge of production, a responsibility that will fall to Ángel Manuel Soto and Gareth Dunnet-Alcocerdirector and screenwriter of the film, as executive producers.

We'll have to see how this second chance feels to Blue Beetle better than the first, because we have to remember that during its time at the box office it only reaped a poor figure of 130.8 million dollars collection. It is true that it managed to cover its budget (104 million dollars), but it is also true that it is a very poor figure within the superhero market.
