In his caption, the actor said he had more in common with his Stranger Things character, Will Byers, than he thought.
In July last year, Noah, confirmed that his Stranger Things character Will identifies as homosexual.
"Now that he's gotten older, they made it a very real, obvious thing. Now it's 100 percent clear that he is homosexual and he does love Mike. But before, it was a slow arc." Before the confirmation, Noah had been vague about Will's sexuality.
