00:00There has been so much secrecy surrounding your character.

00:02How hard has it been to keep this secret?

00:04It's definitely gotten easier.

00:06We've been doing a lot of press, so I feel like I've really drilled it down.

00:09But at first, every time I do an interview, I was like, sweaty palms.

00:12I'm scared to say the wrong thing.

00:14But, you know, I've gotten used to it now.

00:17There is a musical element to this show.

00:19What was it like prepping for the musical numbers?

00:21And did Patti LuPone give any sort of musical theater advice to the cast?

00:26You know, working with Patti on the musical numbers is very much a bucket list.

00:29You know, you can't really pick anyone better to do anything musical with.

00:34She's just the most iconic icon ever.

00:37So we had the best time doing it.

00:38It was really fun.

00:40The trailer makes this show look very spooky compared to most Marvel shows.

00:44Would you say it's Marvel's spookiest or scariest show yet?

00:48I would say it's up there.

00:50Yeah, it's definitely, definitely got a lot of spooky elements.

00:52There's definitely, even watching it, I think filming it because you don't really see the darkness in the edit.

00:58And then watching it, I was like, oh, God, this is quite scary sometimes, which is fun.

01:02It's great.

01:03Perfect for, you know, spooky season.

01:05For you, what has it been like stepping into the Marvel Universe?

01:08It's been amazing.

01:09Like, I constantly have had to pinch myself.

01:12I really, I'm living my childhood dreams.

01:15I'm really very grateful for everything that's happened.

01:17I heard there were so many practical effects used in this show and practical sets built.

01:23How did that help you as an actor bring this character to life?

01:26I mean, it was amazing.

01:28You know, there's nothing better than being an actor than having the thing you're supposed to be acting with there.

01:33We were filming in this forest they'd built inside, and every bit you see at The Witch's Road is real.

01:37There's no VFX there.

01:38But, you know, it feels like you're in, like, a playing, like you're in an adventure.

01:43You're, like, I don't know.

01:45It made it so, so much fun.

01:47There were so many titles for this show as we were learning about it.

01:50Why do you think Agatha All Along is the perfect title for this show?

01:53Because it was Agatha All Along.

01:55It makes it all make sense, you know.

01:57It was Agatha All Along.

01:59We've been seeing so much of you lately.

02:01Coming up, you have Heartstopper Season 3.

02:03What are you excited for fans of the show to see in that new season?

02:06I'm excited for them to see the characters, like, really growing up this year.

02:09I think, you know, teenagers are often misunderstood and talked down to,

02:15and I really hope that our show helps negate that and really, you know, see the maturity in being a teenager.

02:21There's been such a strong fan response to the show.

02:24What has that fan response been like for you?

02:26It's been really great.

02:26You know, it's really amazing to be part of something that people actually care about

02:30and, you know, people really affect you on a deeper level.

02:33You know, it's really nice to have your work matter.
