Noah Schnapp, the popular Netflix series “Stranger Things” actor, has come out as gay after being “scared” for years.

On Thursday, the 18-year-old posted a TikTok video about his sexuality as a gay person, just like the character he plays on the Netflix show.

“When I finally told my friends and family I was gay after being scared in the closet for 18 years, all they said was “we know,” Noah wrote in the text of his TikTok video. The caption continued, “I guess I’m more like Will than I thought.”

After years of speculation, he finally accepted fan theories that he is not straight, similar to Will Byers.

“I mean, it’s pretty clear that Will has feelings for Mike this season” (Wheeler). They’ve been doing it on purpose for the past few seasons.”

“Even in Season 1, they hinted at that and slowly, slowly grew that storyline,” Schnapp told Variety in 2022.
