Newer heroes like America Chavez and Miles Morales have appeared on the big screen since their debut in the comics to further increase their popularity with fans. There are exciting new Hispanic heroes joining the Marvel Universe all the time to join classic heroes like Living Lightning and White Tiger.
America Chavez is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Joe Casey and artist Nick Dragotta, the character first appeared in Vengeance #1 (September 2011). America Chavez is a superhero of Latin-American origin.
Miles Morales was the second Latino Spider-Man. The first was Miguel O'Hara, the Spider-Man of 2099. Created by Peter David, Miguel's name reflected his mixed Irish-Latino heritage (although he'd later learn his Irish father wasn't his birth parent).
A Latina superheroine who was a member of the short-lived New Teen Brigade, the Young Avengers, and the Ultimates. Recently, she became the latter team's leader.
As noted by Zelenetz, Steven Grant/Marc Spector/Moon Knight is being played by Oscar Isaac, a Latino born to Guatemalan and Cuban parents. While not explicitly stated, it's believed that the character won't be depicted as Jewish in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as he is in the comics.
Set in Fictional Palmera City, Blue Beetle follows Mexican-American Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña), who just returned from college (he even shows his Gotham University hoodie in one scene), to his hometown. While trying to find a job, he accidentally gets in possession of an alien Scarab, which makes him a superhero.
Even better, Namor is played by Mexican actor Tenoch Huerta, a relative newcomer to Hollywood although viewers may know him from “Narcos: Mexico.” But more importantly, Huerta embraced the opportunity to represent people who look like him in a major Hollywood blockbuster.
They were both portrayed as white. @Maso Welcome to the wiki btw! In the Ultimate Universe of Marvel Comics has Tony Stark as being part Latino since his mother is a Latino born in Mexico.
Recasting Spider-Man As An Afro-Latino. Then, in 2011, Marvel announced Miles Morales, the first Spider-Man who was both Black and Latino. This time, the responses were more polarizing.
Namor (/ˈneɪmɔːr/) (also known as the Sub-Mariner) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer-artist Bill Everett for comic book packager Funnies Inc., the character first appeared in Motion Picture Funnies Weekly #1 (uncirculated).
Marvel's first Latino hero, Hector Ayala, debuted in 1975, after the success of “Black Panther.” Written by Bill Mantlo and drawn by legendary comic artist George Pérez, Ayala, known as White Tiger, was a Puerto Rican college student living in New York.
Miles Morales is a Brooklyn-born son of a Black father and Puerto Rican mom. He's a proud Boricua and still speaks Spanish in the household with his mother. His apartment is one important way the developers help teach him about us and who he is.
Miles Morales is the first Black Spider-Man, and his Puerto Rican heritage makes him the second Latinx person to take on the role of Spider-Man. Reynolds talks about creating texture in Morales's story and the need for inclusive representation in comics.
The Latinx superhero film centers on Jaime Reyes, portrayed by Xolo Madriueña, who transforms into Blue Beetle and his family, who are of Mexican descent.
Namor is indigenous Maya & should be recognized as such, so their identity isn't further erased.” Thus, both are true. Yes, Huerta represents Latinos, and it's a milestone for us to see Latinos in a Marvel movie — but as far as his character, Namor, goes, he's Indigenous and should be referred to as that.
Costume designs have revealed that Namor's race is inspired by the ancient Aztecs. Not only that, but merchandise tied to the movie has confirmed that his kingdom is called Talocan – not Atlantis. In Aztec mythology, Tlālōcān is the name of a paradise occupied by Tlāloc, the god of rain.
Cadena and Huerta incorporate their Mexican culture into the very foundation of these characters. This decision establishes not only Namor and Namora but the whole of Talokan. Ryan Coogler was inspired by indigenous Central and South American civilizations when crafting the MCU's Talokan.
The most recent choice of the scarab is Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña), who is DC's first Latino superhero. Director Angel Manuel Soto and writer Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer are also both Latino, and they fill “Blue Beetle” with cultural references that highlight the film's focus on representation.
Blue Beetle may be the first major superhero film with a Latino lead, but its director, Ángel Manuel Soto, doesn't like to think of it that way. Nor does he like to think of himself as the man chosen to helm such a culturally-momentous moment.
According to producer Grant Curtis, it turns out that this was something that Oscar Isaac improvised during production. While it's unclear if the character also speaks English with a different accent, it certainly highlights just how involved Oscar Isaac has been in the project.
