Noah schnapp es gay

It was like, 'Oh my God, how many more times can I do this scene?'"

Despite the marathon shoot, "It was also nice because it allowed me to try so many different things," said Schnapp. I got advice from Maya on how to prepare for it, because there were so many lines, more lines than I’d ever had before. It was like a 12-hour day of just that monologue.

For this scene, it was nice because there were moments where I tried the first paragraph of the monologue to the boys where it was a lot more sad, and then there were times when I was a lot more happy reliving the memories with them. I never felt stuck to anything.

"It was like a 12-hour day of just that monologue," the actor recounted.

Maya Hawke, who made her debut as Robin Buckley in season three, "speaks like a madman so I asked, 'How do you learn all these lines and not think about it in the scene?'" Schnapp shared of his process. Noah said: "Being fully aware of it and just completely, blatantly hiding it, it was really hard.

They could have gone and sat in Video Village or hung out, but they all sat there in their spots through the whole day. The coming out monologue is Schnapp’s most emotionally intense and verbose in the series. I was making handshakes with them and I felt like I was 12 years old again. I was like, 'Holy sh*t. It was all a blur. Taking to TikTok, the actor shared a now-deleted video with the caption: "I guess I'm more similar to Will than I thought." He also wrote: "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.'"

At the time, the video had been viewed over 100 million times with fans rushing to send their love and messages of support.

I was crying.

These triumphant moments also demonstrate Schapp’s growth as an actor over his 10 years playing Will.

But it wasn't until the current final season that Schnapp delivered Will's poignant monologue, admitting that no, "I don't like girls."

With all the buildup, "You know that it's coming," Schnapp explained.

Honestly, I was so wrapped up in my emotions and what I was feeling that I kind of blocked out everyone around me. They were supporting me on all these angles where they weren’t even caught on camera. It was nice to get to work with them and they were so cute. Is it in 7 or 8? I’m glad that they edited it the way they did, where it’s nice to see him not just sob through the whole scene, but kind of smile through the memories and give that lighter feel.

I’d barely spoken to Maya before then.
