Joe, who told Teen Vogue in 2023 that he had been ‘openly-gay since the age of 12’, was spotted throwing his arms around TikTok star and together shared a drink while chatting intently.
The Marvel actor cut a low key figure for the gig in a white t-shirt and jeans which he layered with a black sweater.
Meanwhile Dylan put on a very leggy display in a skimpy blue floral mini dress which she wore with matching hair clips and white heels.
While the pair seemingly confirmed a romantic relationship in their recent post, many fans were convinced they were just larking around and are only pals.

She captioned the post: ‘First couples shoot thank you for having us at camp koko,’ before Joe commented: ‘Hard launch’.
Fans went wild by the pair’s apparent coupling: ‘Wait…. Is this a hard launch?!?’: ‘Omg omg omg’: ‘loooove this angel!’: ‘I can’t even with all the hateful comments on here. Ignore them! Love is love’: ‘Why is everyone taking this seriously. come on y’all use your brain’: ‘Hot Couple’: ‘OH MY GOD????!!!’.
MailOnline have contacted Joe and Dylan’s reps for comment.
Joe, who plays gay student Charlie Spring in Netflix’s Heartstopper, spoke about sexuality for the first time to Teen Vogue: ‘People have assumed [I am gay] and written it, and I haven’t ever corrected anyone because I haven’t felt the need to. But I’ve never specifically stated my sexuality’.
He told the publication that he knew he was gay from around the age of nine before adding: ‘I have been openly gay since I was, like, 12’.
Meanwhile Dylan gained notoriety through her Days of Girlhood TikTok series in 2022, where she documented her gender transition for millions of viewers.
Earlier this year she published a memoir titled ‘Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer’ that reflects on her rise to fame and delves into some of her controversies.
She sparked what researchers at Harvard Business School called ‘one of the biggest boycotts in American history,’ when she partnered with Bud Light in 2023.

The backlash was swift and furious with customers staging a boycott and Kid Rock posting videos online of him shooting cases of Bud Light with a rifle.
The decision to hire her is estimated to have cost Anheuser-Busch more than $1 billion in lost sales and knocked it off the number one best-selling beer spot in the US.
In the book Dylan shares her experience of the so-called ‘Beergate,’ though she avoids mentioning Bud Light by name.
Conservatives became outraged after Dylan shared a sponsored video in which she posed with cans of Bud Light that had been printed with her likeness while she wore a dress inspired by Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
Contrary to the impression from the backlash — which included countless transphobic comments — Bud Light only made the custom cans for Dylan and never sold them publicly.
However, the fact that the cans didn’t exist in the wild that didn’t stop conservatives and right-wing figures from vowing to boycott the beer.
In her book, Dylan said she felt abandoned and ‘disappointed’ by the brand, adding that she ‘personally felt [Bud Light] did not condemn hate toward the trans community.’
Although the company didn’t comment on the interview, But Light said in a in a 2023 statement: ‘We never intended to be part of a discussion that divides people. We are in the business of bringing people together over a beer.’

It comes after the pair attended Glastonbury with a large group of pals

Joe shared a slew of snaps from the festival to his Instagram

She also admitted that she dealt with suicidal thoughts after facing an onslaught of threats, and even stalkers.
She feared that the backlash to the video had harmed the LGBTQ community.
‘I would’ve never taken that job had I known any of those repercussions would’ve happened,’ she said.
But she told People that two years later, ‘I am about a thousand times stronger than I was before that situation happened.
‘I’m finally in a place that I have healed, and I’m in such a good mental headspace. I feel like I’m really ready for the world to know what that experience was like behind the scenes,’ she continued.
Dylan admitted that she was a ‘big personality’ who could be ‘a little musical-theater cringey,’ and she didn’t claim to be for everyone.
However, she hoped that more brands could follow in Bud Light’s tentative footsteps to help increase trans representation.
‘I really hope we will get to see beer brands in the future be inclusive and find unique and interesting ways to include others in the conversation and in marketing that maybe is tasteful and helpful in moving culture in the right direction,’ she said.
