#SPOTTED: ÁNGEL MANUEL SOTO IN TORONTO FOR “BLUE BEETLE”

The blue carpet was rolled out at Toronto’s Scotiabank Theatre last night for a very special reason. While we are seeing the impact of the SAG-AFTRA Strike in terms of talent coming into the City, fortunately we still are able to have Filmmakers visit to promote their releases.

BLUE BEETLE marks the first time that this titular DC Superhero appears on-screen and he will do so in a big way later this month, when the Blockbuster hits theatres. The Film sees college graduate Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña) return home, only to find an ancient relic, which in turns provides him a very powerful armour that changes his life forever.

Puerto Rican-American Filmmaker Ángel Manuel Soto made his Toronto debut last night at a special Fan Screening of his film. The event saw fans come out in Cosplay, while also getting the opportunity to have their faces and get tattoos airbrushed in celebration of the Film. Soto came to the affair fresh off a flight amidst a busy promotional tour, speaking to select Canadian Media on his experience directing what is the biggest assignment yet of his career.
