‘Agatha All Along’ Star Joe Locke Discusses Playing Scarlet Witch’s Son And His Future Plans In New Interview

Joe Locke just dished out the kind of juicy secrets that even Agatha Harkness herself would approve of. The 21-year-old Heartstopper star entered Agatha All Along shrouded in mystery, going by the ominously vague nickname “Teen.” No one knew who he really was. Some thought he was just a really fashionable NPC with a flair for dramatics. But surprise! Turns out โ€œTeenโ€ was actually none other than Wiccanโ€”yes, Scarlet Witch’s magical son, also known by his government name: William Kaplan.

But waitโ€”thereโ€™s more! In a delightful soap opera twist, we find out that poor William Kaplan had an unfortunate accident (Marvel really said “Rest in Plotline, Sweet Prince”). His body became the new magical Airbnb for Billy Maximoff, Scarlet Witch and Vision’s spooky little wunderkind from WandaVision. Move over, Airbnb host rules, because Billy moved in with no checkout date.

In a brand-new interview with Variety, Joe finally got to unleash his inner truth-teller, now that Marvelโ€™s gag order has been lifted. And oh, did he have things to say.

โ€œWorst Kept Secret in History, Honestlyโ€
Joe shared his struggle of pretending he wasnโ€™t Billy Maximoff for what felt like eternityโ€”which, in Marvel time, is like 15 movies, 3 multiverses, and one Loki redemption arc.

โ€œItโ€™s like playing reverse poker but with fans whoโ€™ve all got telepathy,โ€ Joe quipped. โ€œBy the 10th person asking, โ€˜Youโ€™re totally Billy, right?โ€™ I was like, Who, me? Never! โ€ฆBut, like, also yes.โ€ He added, โ€œAnd donโ€™t get me started on the fansโ€”โ€˜We knew from day one!โ€™ Yeah? Good for you, Sherlock, but I couldnโ€™t say anything without a Kevin Feige drone spotting me.โ€

Witches, Theories, and Wild Guesses: Bring It On
The fan theories swirling around Agatha All Along have apparently been as wild as the Scarlet Witchโ€™s wardrobe choices. Joe loved every bit of it.

โ€œThereโ€™s one theory where Iโ€™m the villain orchestrating everythingโ€”Chefโ€™s kiss,” he said. “Totally bonkers, but I respect the creativity. Some theories are so out there, they sound like something Agatha dreamed up after too many cocktails. I love reading them all. Even the ones where Iโ€™m like, โ€˜Uh, wrong universe, but cute effort!โ€™โ€

Will We See Tommy? Who Knows! (Joe Definitely Knows But Wonโ€™t Tell You)
Naturally, Agatha All Along fans are dying to know if Billyโ€™s speedster twin, Tommy, will pop up for some sibling rivalry and high-stakes drama. But Joe is holding onto that spoiler like a prized collectorโ€™s edition comic book.

โ€œI mean, I know the answer, but if I tell you, Marvel might banish me to the Quantum Realm,โ€ he teased. โ€œLetโ€™s just say… keep watching. Or donโ€™t. But you should.โ€

Free Agent Joe: Ready for Marvel, Netflix, or Your Local Starbucks
When asked about his future in the MCU and how heโ€™d juggle any upcoming projects with a possible Heartstopper Season 4, Joeโ€™s response was a delightful cry for help.

โ€œMy schedule is so empty right now itโ€™s honestly depressing,โ€ Joe admitted. โ€œWhoever hires me first, Iโ€™m thereโ€”Marvel, Netflix, even Starbucks at this point. Iโ€™ve been so busy the past few years that this downtime is unbearable. Iโ€™m like an over-caffeinated puppy stuck in a house, just pacing in circles.โ€

The man is practically begging for work. Someone get this kid a cape or a rom-com role, stat!

So, whatโ€™s next for Billy/Wiccan/Joe? Only time, Disney executives, and a few thousand fan theories will tell. But one thingโ€™s for sureโ€”if the MCU doesnโ€™t snatch him up soon, the barista down the street might get an award-winning coffee boy.
