In an interview with Variety magazine, actor Noah Schnapp<\/strong> revealed that he feels immensely grateful for portraying his character on the series ‘Stranger Things’,<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0as it allowed him much more freedom in exploring his sexuality.<\/p>\n

“After I accepted that Will was a homosexual<\/strong> person, accepting myself happened at an exponentially faster pace.” He also added, “I would really be in a completely different place if I hadn’t had Will to portray, embrace, and help me accept myself. I’m sure that if I had never played this character, I would probably still be in the closet<\/strong>“<\/em> were his words in the Interview where he came out.<\/p>\n

In other words, the actor has acknowledged that thanks to his role in the series, he was finally able to reveal his true sexuality to the public. Noah Schnapp also shared how he told his colleagues about this matter:<\/p>\n

“I wanted to tell Millie Bobby Brown<\/strong> personally, but I actually felt nervous about telling her in person, so one day I FaceTimed her at a party and said, ‘Millie, I’m gay.’ She said, ‘Oh, you finally told me!’<\/strong>“<\/em><\/p>\n
