Stranger Things 5 gave fans a moment that they’ve been waiting seasons for. In the episodes that released this week, Robin and Will finally have a talk about his sexuality. For a lot of viewers out there, this might feel like a revelation, not just because we’ve been waiting for Will to be honest with himself for a long time, but also because so many people resonated with his story during the earlier parts of this show. It’s cathartic and feels true despite the dire circumstances of the larger season.
Noah Schnapp and Maya Hawke really Love bringing this conversation to life. The two actors talked to Netflix’s TUDUM about the moment Will always needed to have. “When I read the scripts for this season, and it was so much of me and Robin for four or five episodes, I was very excited to film with her. She was amazing to work with and taught me so much,” Schnapp said.
