Noah Schnapp spoke with Extra at the Los Angeles premiere of Stranger Things Season 5, where Will Byers and the group face Vecna for the final time. Reflecting on the last season, he described it as “bittersweet” — exciting to share with fans but difficult to say goodbye.
Schnapp called the experience of filming the conclusion “the most special.” He explained, “Coming back and knowing this was all we had left together one final time really helped us become the closest we'd ever been as a cast.”
“Probably yours truly, but it just goes to show how special it is to us because... it is hard to let go.”
This was Schnapp’s response when asked who shed the most tears at the end of filming.
Looking back over the past decade, Noah highlighted one standout moment:
“When we won a SAG Award. I think that was really like, ‘Wow, this is a dream come true.’”
Stranger Things Season 5, Volume 1, premieres on Netflix on November 26.
