DESCRIPTION:
(from Disney Branded Television's press release, April 2022) In honor of National Superhero Day, Disney Branded Television announced the premiere date for its two newest Disney Channel series, "The Villains of Valley View" and "Ultra Violet & Black Scorpion," launching Friday, June 3. Violet Rodriguez, an everyday Mexican American teen, is chosen by a magical luchador mask which transforms her into Ultra Violet, a superhero fighting crime alongside her luchador uncle, Cruz, also known as Black Scorpion. Although Cruz takes Violet under his wing to teach her the responsibilities of her special powers, she doesn't always see eye to eye with him when it comes to his methods for capturing crooks. In the meantime, she must keep her superhero identity secret from her parents and her older brother Santiago ("Tiago"), as well as her friends and schoolmates. However, she does lean on one close confidante: her best friend Maya Miller-Martinez, who provides advice and assists with documenting Ultra Violet's adventures on social media. |
