Finn Wolfhard ‘really proud’ of Noah Schnapp for coming out as gay

• Finn Wolfhard said he was “very proud” of Noah Schnapp for coming out as gay.
• Noah came out as gay last month.
• Noah’s on-screen character in ‘Stranger Things’ is gay.

The actor who plays Mike Wheeler in the Netflix sci-fi series “Stranger Things” had a “huge smile” on his face when he got to know that co-star Noah, 18, who plays Will Byers, had revealed his sexual orientation to fans in a TikTok video.

Finn said: “When I saw it, I just had a big smile on my face. I was just really proud of him.”

Although the cast members of “Stranger Things” are “on their own missions in real life,” the 20-year-old actor acknowledges that they would be there for one another if necessary “in the same way that family works.”

He added to GQ magazine: “We’re not on everyday-text vibes in any way, and not because … it’s like.

“Do you text your cousins every day? Probably not. They’re our family.

“We’ll talk on each other’s birthdays. We’ll talk once in a while. But in the same way that family works, if I ever needed anything, they’re there.”

Last month, Noah came out as gay and acknowledged that his friends and family had already informed him of this.

In the clip, he said: “When I finally told my friends and family I was gay after being scared in the closet for 18 years and all they said was ‘we know.’ You know what it never was? That serious. It was never that serious. Quite frankly, it will never be that serious.”

Noah’s on-screen character in ‘Stranger Things’ is gay, and the teenage actor even referenced Will’s sexuality in the TikTok caption.

He wrote: “I guess I’m more similar to Will than I thought.”
