Joe Locke’s Mom Faints at Marvel Premiere—Saved by a Doctor Strange Lookalike!

Buy Me A Coffee

Joe Locke, best known for making us swoon in Heartstopper, has officially entered the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Agatha All Along. But while Joe was busy doing press for the show, his mom was out there having her own dramatic Marvel moment—complete with a swoon of her own.

The Scene: A Hollywood premiere. The red carpet. Flashing cameras. Glamorous chaos. And then—bam—Joe’s mom took one look at the spectacle and fainted. That’s right. Down she went. And who came to the rescue? None other than a man dressed as Doctor Strange. Because when you pass out at a Marvel event, you better believe you’re getting mystical medical assistance.

Joe spilled the details to Variety, saying, “She’s going to hate me for saying this, but it’s too funny.” (Correct, Joe. She is definitely going to make you pay for this later.)

Apparently, his publicist casually pulled him aside mid-press tour and was like, “Sooo, your mom just fainted.” Joe rushed over, only to find her being assisted by a stranger dressed as Doctor Strange. Talk about a cinematic moment.

Luckily, his mom was fine—just a little overwhelmed by the whole Hollywood spectacle (and, let’s be real, the temperature). But that hasn’t stopped Joe from teasing her about it every chance he gets.

Aside from the Marvel-sized excitement, Joe took a moment to shout out his mom, saying he owes his “great resolve” to her. (Which is adorable. Even if she did just publicly lose consciousness at his premiere.)

Joe also revealed that he’s been taking a little break from acting since November. And like any self-respecting overachiever suddenly faced with free time, he had a bit of an existential crisis.

“I did a pottery class,” he admitted. “I took a yoga session.” (A true crisis.)

But now, after some deep stretches and some questionable clay creations, he’s ready to jump back into the acting world. The only question is: what’s next?

One thing’s for sure—his next gig better come with a mom-proof red carpet. And maybe a designated Doctor Strange on standby.
