The 'Cobra Kai' actor plays college graduate-turned-superhero Jaime Reyes, the first Latino superhero in a DC movie, who finds it impossible to keep his alter-ego a secret. «There's no hiding from mom and dad that I'm Blue Beetle. As a Latino, I know that there's no secrets in my family, so I felt it resonated with me and the fact that the superhero in this movie is really the family,» Mariduena told Reuters last month before film promotion was halted by the Screen Actors Guild strike.
