Also, Schnapp noted that “I guess I’m more like Will than I thought,” he said, alluding to the character he plays in ‘Stranger Things’ and that he has the same sexual preferences.

In fact, the first time the young actor spoke about it was during the promotion of the fifth season of the series: “Yes, I think it is. Obviously, he was hinted at in season 1 – he was always there, but it was never really known. Now that he has aged, they made it very real and obvious. Now it is 100% clear that he is gay and he loves Mike (his best friend in the series) ”, he detailed at the time during an interview.
