Dragon Ball Super: Broly is not just bringing Broly into the official canon but it will also explore the past of the Saiyans and Planet Vegeta in a fresh way, and that includes new Saiyan characters like Beets, and now, the new promos for the new Saiyan have released new details. Check it out:
Over on Twitter, GogetaVX pointed out that Beets will be portrayed by Takuya Kirimoto, and according to the character profile, Beets is not a fighter, he's a "staff" member in the Saiyan "Spaceship Arrival and Departure" Faction. His non-fighter status explains why he's not seen in the trailers of the upcoming film.
It looks like Beets doesn't play a major role in the film. When he was first introduced in the film, fans came up with theories about the Saiyan's identity. There's a theory that claims that he's the younger version of Broly but that didn't turn out to be true.
Official Synopsis of
Dragon Ball Super: Broly
This is the story of a new Saiyan. Earth is peaceful following the Tournament of Power. Realizing that the universes still hold many more strong people yet to see, Goku spends all his days training to reach even greater heights. Then one day, Goku and Vegeta are faced by a Saiyan called 'Broly' who they've never seen before. The Saiyans were supposed to have been almost completely wiped out in the destruction of Planet Vegeta, so what's this one doing on Earth? This encounter between the three Saiyans who have followed completely different destinies turns into a stupendous battle, with even Freeza (back from Hell) getting caught up in the mix.
