Joseph Quinn has a story for the Swifties.

The A Quiet Place: Day One actor, 30, recalled the ‘cringe’ moment of meeting Taylor Swift, 34, for the first time and the ‘f*****g stupid’ thing he said to the songbird.

When asked by host Josh Horowitz during an appearance on his Happy Sad Confused podcast if he’s had any embarrassing moments since becoming famous, one particular encounter came to mind.

‘I met Taylor Swift once, and I said, “You’re Taylor Swift.” She was very funny,’ Joseph recalled on Monday’s episode.

The Grammy winner then acknowledged the actor’s work on Stranger Things when he played Eddie Munson in season 4.

‘She said something nice about like the show,’ Joseph continued, ‘and I said, “Oh, thanks. You’re Taylor Swift. I mean it as a compliment.”‘

Josh laughed at the banter, pointing out that it is indeed a compliment.

Joseph responded, ‘It’s definitely a compliment, and I remember thinking like that was f*****g stupid. But she was very good-humored about it.’

As for where the celebrities stand now? As the Gladiator II star joked, the two are still on ‘great terms’ and he will be featured on Taylor’s next album.

‘We are just trying to figure it out,’ Joseph quipped before admitting that no, Taylor has not ‘reached out’ about a musical collaboration.

Although the Dickensian alum didn’t reveal where he met the pop star, fans may remember that Joseph’s Stranger Things costar Sadie Sink (who played Max) starred in Taylor’s short film All Too Well in 2021.

At the time, the artist penned a touching tribute to the 22-year-old for Entertainment Weekly’s 2022 Entertainers of the Year honors.

‘Sadie Sink is a remarkable presence on screen, on stage, and on set. While watching the monitors during the filming of the short film we made together, I often found myself transfixed by the effortlessness and complexity of her performance. Scratch that, because it didn’t feel like a performance at all,’ Taylor wrote. ‘Her grief, her hope, her loss — it all felt real.’

Concluding her sweet message to the young actress, the star said, ‘She is a force to watch and a pleasure to know. I’ll continue to feel just as lucky to watch from afar as she lights up the screen, tells new stories, and shows us new sides of herself: multifaceted and brilliant, dark and unhinged, twinkly and full of promise. This artist contains multitudes, and we get to look on as she courageously unveils them. Everyone say, “Thank you, Sadie.”‘

Along with Sadie, Joseph’s career has also skyrocketed to new heights in recent years, with the actor revealing if he would return to Stranger Things in the future – despite his character seemingly dying in season 4.

‘Chances are high. I love those guys! I’d love to say hello,’ Joseph told Entertainment Tonight last month. ‘I’m sure they’re working very hard to land the plane. It’s been a long time that they’ve been working on that, so I’m really delighted that they’re kind of getting towards the end, and they’re having a nice time. I’m sure they’re gonna deliver it in a pretty epic way.’

He added, ‘I have no doubts.’

But along with starring on the streaming platform, Joseph has made his way to the Marvel Universe, landing the role of Johnny Storm, a.k.a. The Human Torch, in the upcoming Fantastic Four film.

In fact, he leaned on his A Quiet Place: Day One costar Lupita Nyong’o for advice before the project starts.

‘She said that I’m going to have a blast and enjoy it,’ he shared with People. ‘She was very helpful when I was considering all of that stuff. She’s obviously part of that world and spoke about her experience with a lot of fondness, so it was encouraging.’

Joseph will follow in the footsteps of Chris Evans, 43, and Michael B. Jordan, 37, who have both portrayed Johnny Storm.
