00:00 Noah Schnapp knows he can count on Millie Bobby Brown.
00:04 The actor revealed how he came out to his Stranger Things co-star and Real Life BFF,
00:09 telling Variety in a new interview published this week that the conversation didn't exactly
00:14 go as he imagined, but Millie's reaction couldn't have been sweeter.
00:18 "I kept trying to do it in person with her and it was too hard," he said.
00:22 "So then I just FaceTimed her one day in the middle of a party city and I was like,
00:26 'Millie, I'm gay.'
00:28 And she was like, 'Oh Schnapper, you told me finally.'"
00:32 The 18-year-old came out publicly back in January in an instantly viral TikTok video,
00:36 which he captioned, "I guess I'm more similar to Will than I thought," and reflected on
00:41 the love and support he'd received from his close circle of loved ones when he gave them
00:45 the news.
00:46 "You know what it never was?
00:48 That serious.
00:49 It was never that serious.
00:51 Quite frankly, will never be that serious."
00:54 Noah told Variety that the TikTok was saved in his phone for months before he felt ready
00:58 to post it, and he wasn't prepared for the outpouring of well wishes and congratulations
01:02 from fans all over the world.
01:05 Noah's journey mirrored that of his TV alter ego, Will Byers, who was confirmed to be gay
01:09 in the Netflix hit's fourth season.
01:12 Prior to the installment's 2022 premiere, Noah and Millie told Access Hollywood how
01:16 much Stranger Things has changed their lives.
01:19 "What can we expect from the season?
01:21 It's just an entirely new kind of world and everyone's kind of split across different
01:28 places.
01:29 We have our California crew, our Hawkins crew, our crew in Russia, and it's just all these
01:34 different storylines that you kind of get to watch come together by the end.
01:39 And it's interesting because especially for Will and Eleven, we're in a new place and
01:43 you finally see them out of Hawkins.
01:45 And in the beginning for Elle and Will, it's just no supernatural anything, just natural
01:51 high school struggles.
01:53 And it's interesting to see that new side."
01:55 "And will there be any shockers?
01:59 Is there anything you can share, any secrets, any shockers?"
02:06 "Shockers.
02:09 It was shocking it took three years to come out.
02:11 That was shocking.
02:12 I mean, God, they took their time.
02:16 It was like they were in slow-mo.
02:18 It was like..."
02:19 "They still are, we're not done yet."
02:22 "No, we're not done yet.
02:23 That's the thing.
02:24 That's also shocking.
02:25 So yeah, and then we got through a pandemic.
02:29 That was also shocking.
02:30 We filmed this during a pandemic and we stayed safe."
02:33 "And it came out so great."
02:35 "And it came out so great."
02:36 "There's no extras with masks in the back."
02:39 "No, that's good."
02:40 "Awesome.
02:41 Okay, so we've watched you guys, so many of you grow up on screen.
02:47 How has the show changed your lives?"
02:51 "It's definitely impacted our lives so much.
02:58 We have graduated on this show and we've met each other.
03:03 We've been friends for over seven years and it's been an experience of a lifetime.
03:11 There's lots of personal growth and there's lots of professional growth, skills that we
03:16 have adapted with the amazing people we've worked with along the way.
03:21 Those are things that you'll never forget."
