Susan Sarandon Brags DC’s Upcoming ‘Blue Beetle’ is Woke

John Nolte at Breitbart News reports that Blue Beetle star Susan Sarandon is bragging that the upcoming DC movie is woke.

“What’s fabulous about [Blue Beetle] is, it’s the first Latinx hero that has his own movie,” she told Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show last September. “Even better, all of the Mexican — because his family is Mexican and all the actors were Mexican, and it’s in Spanish, so it’s subtitled.”

But is the movie any good? Because that’s all that audiences will care about.

“I’m, of course, the bad guy,” she said of her character Victoria Kord. “I’m the white military-industrial complex…. So I had a fabulous time because there’s nothing better than being bad.”

And in the Left’s view, there’s nothing badder than being white.

Nolte also noted that Blue Beetle director Ángel Manuel Soto openly wished for the assassination of President Trump. He also declared Puerto Rico a “slave colony.” The Trump tweet has been up since August of 2018 and was only deleted this week after someone called him on it.

“It’s bad enough guys like this director are so hate-filled and blood-thirsty, but he is also childish and entitled enough to believe it’s okay to spew his hate and violence publicly. Artists are frequently eccentric and passionate, but this guy has no humanity and no self-control,” Nolte concluded. “Does anyone doubt Blue Beetle will be a pedantic, virtue-signaling, eye-rolling woke lecture that cost $120 million to produce and another $80 to $100 million to promote?”
