Noah Schnapp, known for his role of Will Byers in Netflix Stranger things, has made a surprising confession.
Like during one of the scenes of Stranger things part 2 Noah told his family that he is gay. The actor admitted that he “cried” when he read the scene from the script.
Speak with People magazine, Noah said, “I was nervous. I thought, ‘How are they going to write that?’ But I read it, and I just cried when I read it, and I thought, ‘This is perfect. They did it.’ There are no notes.”
The actor added that it was “impressive” that the monologue stayed true to his real life and to the character.
Referring to the Duffer brothers, Noah said, “They told me they went to some strange family and friends to help them understand how to do it right.”
“I would say I was a little nervous because everyone was getting up individually, and I was like, ‘Is that going to be weird?’ But then, in this moment, everything is normal [felt] so real and it just felt so natural, and it worked,” he admitted.
Noah Schnapp also noted that the trip was similar to real life. “You don’t suddenly accept yourself and then tell everyone. It’s a process of internal acceptance and then outwardly. It’s just so beautifully written, and it was very special to be able to play that,” he said.
The part 2 of Stranger things season 5 was released on Netflix on Christmas Day.
