In the short video, which lasted for only eight seconds, Noah Schnapp could be heard imitating a woman stating, “You know what it never was? That grave. Never was it that serious. In all honesty, it won’t ever be that serious.

If you recall, Noah sparked rumours in July 2022 when he disclosed that his character Will Byers is a part of the LGBTQIA+ group in an interview about the character. He does adore Mike and is gay.
“Is it just that he’s growing up slower than his friends? It was kind of there all the time, but you never really knew,” I asked. As mentioned by Schnapp in the interview. “Now that he is older, they have made it seem very genuine and evident. The fact that he is gay and that he loves Mike is now undeniable. The way Noah stated it made him come to mind. And here he is, honest and proud of who he really is.
