‘Stranger Things’ Noah Schnapp and Millie Bobby Brown comment on speculation over Will’s sexuality
Stranger Things stars Noah Schnapp and Millie Bobby Brown have broken their silence on Will’s sexuality.In light of several plotlines in season four of the Netflix show, including Schnapp’s character Will giving a presentation about the gay mathematician Alan Turing and later a line suggesting he might be struggling to come out, fans have begun to speculate.“Sometimes I think it’s just scary to open up like that, to say how you really feel, especially to people you care about the most,” Will tells his friend Mike in episode five, adding: “because what if they don’t like the truth?”“I feel like they never really address it or blatantly say how Will is,” Schnapp has now said in a recent interview with Variety.“I think that’s the beauty of it, that it’s just up to the audience’s interpretation, if it’s Will kind of just refusing to grow up and growing up slower than his friends, or if he is really gay.”Brown then added: “Can I just say, it’s 2022 and we don’t have to label things. I think what’s really nice about Will’s character is that he’s just a human being going through his own personal demons and issues.“So many kids out there don’t know, and that’s OK.
