Jonathan Bailey talks about being a part of Heartstopper! The way he genuinely loves this show is everything! 🥹❤️🍂🌈
What did you like the most about playing the role of the handsome Jack Maddox?
Jonathan Bailey: Enter the world of Alice Oseman and be a supporting role in the wonderful cast of "Heartstopper". Be part of something I know I'd love to have seen when I was younger.
Was there any specific moment of "Heartstopper" that you identified with?
JB: Many! But the main thing was the excitement, which takes me back to that joy, emotion and magic of falling in love being a gay teenager. A special and scary time, in which I had no words, nor the courage to communicate what I felt.
For you, what is the impact of a series like "Heartstopper" on LGBTQIA+ young people and others?
JB: I think these fun and complicated queer characters, but kind and inspiring, pave the way for everyone to relax and enjoy this time of adolescence. I hope "Heartstopper" prepares and allows straight teenagers to be allies to celebrate and protect their gay friends.

Jonathan Bailey was so blown away by “Heartstopper” that he just knew he had to be on the show.
“Like so many people, I watched the first [season] and thought it was one of the biggest, most beautiful gifts to so many people, and I wish I had that growing up,” the “Fellow Travelers” and “Bridgerton” star told me at the Met Gala Monday night.
It was announced in late April that Bailey will make a cameo appearance as Jack Maddox, an Instagram-famous classicist and celebrity crush of Charlie (Joe Locke). “I had a mutual friend who knows [executive producer Patrick Walters] and I just said, ‘If there’s anything I could do to help and be a part of that story,’” Bailey recalled.
He said that the series, based on Alice Oseman’s graphic novel series of the same name, “really has changed the way people could grow and communicate around who they are.”
He continued, “It’s not just for our community. It’s for every person who is a member of a family who has a member of the LGBT+ community. It helps all of us.”
The night before the Met Gala, Bailey attended Locke’s last performance in the Broadway revival of “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.” “It was amazing,” Bailey said. “It was electric.”
