I’m more similar to Will than I thought: Stranger Things fame Noah Schnapp comes out as gay

Known for playing the role of Will Byers in the popular Netflix series Stranger Things , actor Noah Schnapp has made a surprising revelation in front of his fans and has come out as gay. While speaking in a candid TikTok video, the 18-year-old actor confessed that he revealed the same in front of his friends and family after remaining “scared in the closet for 18 years.” Notably, this came after the most recent season of his hit show implied that the character of Will Byers (played by Noah) is also gay and has feelings for his best friend Mike. Noah himself also confirmed the same. Meanwhile, coming back to reality, the TikTok video is now going viral on social media and has been shared widely by fans. Dressed in a casual grey hoodie, Noah lip-synced with a viral audio clip from TikTok which says, “You know what it never was? That serious. It was never that serious.
