Olivia Holt Calls 'Cloak & Dagger' Co-star Aubrey Joseph a 'Literal Superhuman'

Olivia Holt‘s new show, Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger, hasn’t even premiered yet, and we already know it’s going to be one of our faves.

Speaking with Teen Vogue, the actress opened up about playing Tandy aka Dagger, her “badass” superpowers and working with co-star Aubrey Joseph.

“I’m stoked to have a light dagger come out of my hand whenever I feel like it. It’s such a powerful, feminine and badass thing,” Olivia dished, before chatting about the focus on the characters.

“I feel like these characters are so complicated,” she shared, “and the things they are going through are the things that are happening in this day and age.”

She continues, “It really tells the story of what a white female is going through in 2018 and what a black young male is going through in 2018. We see these characters unfold into themselves in the most complex ways, and I feel as humans we connect to that.”

And working with Aubrey, aka Tyrone/Cloak, is one of her favorite things.

“I don’t use these words lightly, but I feel like he’s a literal superhuman,” Olivia says. “He is such a delight to work with, and so talented in a raw way. He’s naturally a person you gravitate towards, and I’m so lucky to have a partner on a show who just wants to create something that is special and important.”

Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger premieres in June on Freeform.

Olivia Holt & Aubrey Joseph Talk Timeliness of 'Marvel's Cloak & Dagger'

Olivia Holt & Aubrey Joseph Talk Timeliness of 'Marvel's Cloak & Dagger'

Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger is more than just a superhero show — sure, it centers on two teens with gifted with extraordinary powers, but it’s still more than just that.

Stars Olivia Holt and Aubrey Joseph opened up during a panel during the recent Freeform Summit about the show and the importance and timeliness of it as well.

“The most important thing was to tell a story of a young woman who gets these powers, who does the wrong thing sometimes and slowly finds herself a hero,” showrunner Joe Pokaski shared. “And the story of a young black man who has a harder climb than Peter Parker, that has a harder climb than Tony Stark, and yet has to overcome and protect everybody else.”

Aubrey, who will play Tyrone Johnson (aka Cloak) adds that this role was unlike any other for him.

“It was one of the first roles that, to me, fully showcased what it is to be a young black male in America right now,” he said. “And I feel like there’s no – we’re getting better, obviously, Atlanta being a show and things like that.”

He adds, “Before this, most of the roles that I was going in for is, like, ‘young black kid’ on Law & Order getting shot. We finally got a chance to tell the story that a young black male goes through the same things that anyone else has, and has the same hopes and dreams.”

Olivia, who plays Tandy (aka Dagger), echoes his stance: “I feel like this is such a right time to have a show like this. Just in our generation and in this day and age and focusing on current subjects and hard topics to actually talk about.”

Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger premieres on Freeform on June 7th.

Olivia Holt & Aubrey Joseph Resume Filming on 'Marvel's Cloak & Dagger' Next Month!

Olivia Holt and Aubrey Joseph are headed back into the Marvel world.

The two stars of Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger will be going back into production on the series next month to complete the rest of the episodes for season one.

While some are reporting that they’re actually starting on a second season, but we don’t think that’s correct.

The listing in Production Weekly is listed as “Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger 02″ — and the numbers typically refer to the season for which the show is filming.

Cloak & Dagger is resuming filming in July, and will go until October, but unless Marvel and Freeform managed to film the entirety of season one already, these eps are just the rest of season one (nine more episodes).
