'Modern Family' star Jeremy Maguire hopes Stella isn't the one who dies in upcoming season 10

Jeremy Maguire, the talented seven-year-old who brings Joe to life with a dash of sass and a whole lot of smarts on 'Modern Family', speaks to Meaww about the impending death

The final season of ABC's 'Modern Family' will kick off on Wednesday, September 26. The new season promises some closure regarding the storylines and character arcs, and it looks like it will do so by killing off one of the main characters. While the death of someone within the family will impact every Pritchett, Dunphy and Tucker, it is probably Joe, the youngest member, who will learn huge life lessons from it.

Jeremy Maguire, the talented seven-year-old actor who brings Joe to life with a dash of sass and a whole lot of smarts, speaks to Meaww about which member he hopes would not get killed off. He also chats about the endeavors he would like to see the youngest Pritchett engage in, and what it is really like to be a child actor on the sets of one of the most popular shows that focus on family.
