StrangerThings’s Noah Schnapp no longer feels the need to play coy: “It’s pretty clear this season that Will has feelings for Mike.”
on the series. Viewers got an answer in a pair of emotionally charged scenes in the show’s recently released fourth season—one between’s character and his brother Jonathan , and the other between Will and his best friend Mike . While both alluded to Will’s inner desires, confirmation about what those desires were hadn’t been offered until now.
“It was always kind of there, but you never really knew, is it just him growing up slower than his friends?” Schnapp said in a new“Now that he’s gotten older, they made it a very real, obvious thing. Now it’s 100% clear that he is gay and he does love Mike. But before, it was a slow arc. I think it is done so beautifully, because it’s so easy to make a character just like all of a sudden be gay.”
Schnapp said that Will’s “jealousy” over Mike’s relationship with Eleven propels him to tearfully speak up. “Sometimes when you’re different you feel like a mistake,” a choked-up Will tells Mike, who doesn’t seem to be grasping the weight of Will’s words. “This scene was really important for him, because it really solidified that truth: that he loves his best friend and he doesn’t know how to tell him,” Schnapp said of his character., saying only that it was “up to the audience’s interpretation.
The emotional interaction between Will and Jonathan, in which the older brother promises that “there’s absolutely nothing in this world that could change” their bond, was a key last-minute addition. “It’s also very important for people to see that Will is not alone—because all we ever see of him is struggling and feeling depressed and that he can’t be himself,” Schnapp explained.
