“Blue Beetle” is coming to the small screen in an animated series in development at Warner Bros. Animation and DC Studios.
The project comes from Miguel Puga (“The Casagrandes”), who will serve as showrunner and director, and Cristian Martinez (“Women of the Movement,” “Good Trouble”) who will serve as writer. It is expected to build upon the 2023 film, but tell its own story.
Executive producers on the series include the 2023 film’s director Angel Manuel Soto, screenwriter Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer and EP John Ricard. Galen Vaisman, who was another EP on the film, will oversee the animated series for DC Studios.
