It appears that lucha libre legend and former NWA Champion Blue Demon Jr. has left the upcoming Disney show Ultra Violet & Blue Demon. In a press release issued by Disney, it was announced they have cast actor J.R. Villarreal as Cruz de la Vega in what will now be known as Ultra Violet & Black Scorpion.
