According to this Facebook list, it has been confirmed that the character of ted Kord will appear in the movie DC Comics from blue beetle. The publication also indicates that the role will be played by Jason Sudeikisfamous for being the protagonist of the television series ted lasso.
According to Lizzie Hill in The Cosmic Circus, Ted Kord’s appearance in blue beetle would also have been confirmed through his sources close to Warner Bros. Pictures Already DC Movies. However, these sources suggest that the role of Jason Sudeikis would be contextualized through flashbacks and would have little relevance to the film.

The narrative options after this signing
Taking into account the age difference between Susan Sarandon and Jason Sudeikis (29 years old), it is likely that she is not his wife. Unless Ted Kord had died decades ago and his appearance in blue beetle be only with a flashback sequence. Unfortunately, this also makes it unlikely that Victoria Kord be Ted Kord’s sister in the DC movie. So she only leaves two viable options from a narrative point of view.
Either Victoria Kord is Ted’s mother or she is his aunt. This last possibility seems the most likely, since in the DC comics and animated series the character of Jason Sudeikis had an antagonistic uncle named Jarvis Kord. Therefore, Susan Sarandon is expected to play a character from the comics whose gender has been changed to fit the movie. blue beetle.
