BLUE BEETLE is the story of a young guy who gets extraordinary powers. Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña) returns to his home in Palmera City, Mexico during an academic break. His whole family – father Alberto (Damián Alcázar), mother Rocio (Elpidia Carrillo), grandmother Nana (Adriana Barraza), sister Milagro aka Mili (Belissa... Escobedo) and uncle Rudy (George Lopez) - arrive at the airport to welcome him. Once he's home, he learns that they are about to lose their residence since the rent has been hiked three times. A lot has changed in Palmera City as Kord Industries headed by Victoria Kord (Susan Sarandon) have been trying to expand their base. Jaime and Mili work in Victoria’s mansion as housekeepers. They get fired when Jaime interrupts a fight between Victoria and her niece Jenny Kord (Bruna Marquezine). Jenny appreciates that Jaime stood up for her and calls her to Kord Tower the next day, promising that she’ll help him land a job in the company. Jenny is against Victoria’s idea of implementing OMAC (One Man Army Corps), a deadly project that can cause havoc in the world. The next day, Jenny enters the lab in Kord Tower and realizes that Victoria has unearthed Scarab, a piece of extraterrestrial technology. She steals it but is unable to escape as word spreads in the building that there has been a robbery. This is when she bumps into Jaime. She puts Scarab in a hamburger box, hands it to Jaime and tells him to guard it with his life. She also instructs him not to open the box. Jaime goes home with the Scarab. His family members open the box and start playing with the Scarab. This is when the Scarab attacks Jaime and in no time, enters his body. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
