‘Heartstopper’ Author Alice Oseman Predicted Joe Locke’s Casting As Billy Maximoff in ‘Agatha All Along’ Years Ago

Alice Oseman, the author of the beloved graphic novel series ‘Heartstopper’, has been praised for her ability to create relatable and complex characters. However, to add more to her talents, the writer predicted a huge MCU casting.

In a 2019 tweet, Oseman showcased her foresight by depicting Nick Nelson and Charlie Spring, the protagonists of ‘Heartstopper’, as Marvel’s Hulkling and Wiccan. Now, ‘Agatha All Along’ has fulfilled her wishes with Joe Locke being cast as Wiccan.
