Director Ángel Manuel Soto confirms discussions with James Gunn about the future of Blue Beetle and hints at a potential role for Booster Gold.
Soto leaves the possibility open for Jaime Reyes' story to be integrated into the new DC Universe, showing interest in its continuation.
The post-credits scene in Blue Beetle raises speculation about how the story will unfold and where Booster Gold will fit in.

Blue Beetle director Ángel Manuel Soto teases where James Gunn may feature Jaime Reyes next in the DC Universe after his solo movie. As the DCEU comes to an end this year, one character who will continue his adventure in Gunn's DC Universe is Xolo Maridueña's Blue Beetle, as he brought the iconic Latino superhero to the big screen this summer. With multiple DC Universe movies and TV shows currently in the works, the potential for Blue Beetle's future is endless.
During an exclusive interview with Screen Rant to promote the upcoming Blue Beetle Blu-Ray/DVD home release, Soto talked about the future of Jaime and where audience members may see him after the film. When elaborating about the Blue Beetle post-credits scene, Soto confirmed that he has talked with James Gunn about where it might lead and how it may involve none other than Booster Gold himself:

Yeah, we have had conversations about it and that's where he mentioned to me about the Booster Gold TV show that is coming up. Now, where does it fit, how is it gonna play out? We haven't talked about that. But we both have talked about our interest in continuing Jaime's story, and finding a way for that story to be a part of this new universe.

While he doesn't appear physically in the movie, Blue Beetle establishes the existence of Ted Kord, who was the second hero to carry the name before Jaime got the Scarab. In this story, Ted is Jenny's biological father, who went missing years ago, and it's unclear for most of the movie if he's died or not. However, during the Blue Beetle post-credits scene, a recording starts getting broadcast in Ted's lab, with the voice saying that he is still alive.
