Stranger Things’ Will actor Noah Schnapp, 18, comes out as gay after years ‘in the closet’ | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

The multiple award-winning supernatural drama series – which also features the likes of Winona Ryder – tells the story of mind control, psychokinesis and a secret scientific research lab using human subjects.

Alongside the sci-fi subject matter, there’s a more conventional storyline within the show too – Will’s romantic feelings towards his best friend Mike Wheeler (Finn Wolfhard).

However, Will’s feelings are not reciprocated by Mike, who is in love with telepathic teen Eleven (played by Millie Bobby Brown).

Following the season four storyline, Noah has made it clear that the character is “100% gay”.

“Obviously, it was hinted at in Season 1,” he revealed to Variety magazine.
