In Wandavision (2021), the Scarlet Witch, memory-wiped and trapped in a sitcom world, has two sons, Billy and Tommy (Justin Hilliard, Jeff Klyne). In Agatha All Along (2024), after being adopted by a Jewish family and losing and regaining his memory, Billy Maximoff becomes the gay Jewish superhero Wiccan. So of course I had to do a profile of Justin.
Jett arguably has a more gay/femme affect. Guess which is Tommy.
I'll answer the standard two questions: has Jett appeared in any movies or tv shows of gay interest?; and is he gay in real life?
Gay-Themed Movies/TV Shows:
In 2014, when Jett was seven years old, he was in Writing Kim: Aspiring writer Annie (Jett's Mom) heads off on a road trip seeking inspiration, and meets Kim, who has a husband and son (Jett) but also likes ladies. Kim inspires her to embrace her sexual fluidity (you mean she's bi?) In 2020, it was selected for qFlix, the Philadelphia LGBTQ film festival.
According to his IMDB biography, Jett's break-out role was in Z (2019). So a one-word title was too long? Joshua (Jett) has an "imaginary" friend, Z, who gets more and more disruptive, sabotaging his relationship with his real life friend Daniel and trying to kill his father. Finally we learn that Z is using Joshua to get to his mother.
I haven't seen it, but the gay subtexts sort of jump out at you, don't they?
Left: Since Jett is 16 as of this writing, I won't be looking for nude photos, so here's a random twink.
He has a lot of pre-Wandavision guest appearances, mostly in movies that I never heard of: Devil in the Dark, Manny Dearest, The Humanity Bureau, Skyscraper. Plus three significant post-Wanda movies:
The Boy in the Woods (2023). During World War II, as the Jewish population of Buczarc is being rounded up for the concentration camps, Max (Jett) is sent to live with Janko (Richard Armitage), a synpathetic non-Jewish farmer. But Janko fears for his family's safety, so he kicks the boy out. While hiding in the woods, Max forms a buddy-bond with the sensitive, artistic, gay-coded Yanek (David Kohlsmith, right); they discuss their future, living together as artists in Paris, and try to adopt the baby of a dead woman.
Yanek dies, but the baby grows up, and Max re-unites with her in old age, so symbolically the two had a family. A definite gay subtext or text.
More after the break
For the first five minutes of the short Animals (2025), it's gay-themed: Mark (Jakobe Jenkins) confronts Lucas (Jett): "It didn't seem weird to you? You think anything was wrong?" Scenes of them hanging out, playing basketball, and wrestling. "I need to take a step back from the friendship. You hurt someone." Obviously Lucas began erotic activity without his friend's consent. Big reveal in the last two minutes: it was with a girl. Whoa, that is blatant queerbaiting.
Shaman (2025): In Ecuador, a missionary's kid (Jett) ventures into a "forbidden cave" and comes out possessed: he insults people, disparages Mom and Dad, and says a lot of bad words. The church can't help, so Mom asks a local shaman to exorcise him.
Gay in real life?
Lots of evidence.
1. No social media photos of hugging girls except for his mom.
2. Lots of hugging and going to events with guys: Justin Hilliard, David Kohlsmith, Connor DeWolfe, Benny Jacobson (right).
3. His muscular physique. Not necessarily a sign of gay identity; I just wanted an excuse to post another beefcake pic.
