The Duffer Brothers explain the duality of Will's speech to Mike in Episode 8 of StrangerThings4.
EDITORS NOTE: This article contains spoilers for Stranger Things Season 4 Volume 2. Will Byers is the boy who started it all. In Season 1 of Stranger Things, set in 1983, Will is the first person from Hawkins, Indiana to go missing in the Upside Down. In the time since then, Will hasn't had the easiest childhood. From being trapped in the underworld to being possessed by its master, it's safe to say that Will's actually had a pretty rough go of it.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Will's sexuality has been a hot topic of discussion regarding Stranger Things for years. And while the show's cast and crew have been reluctant to call it what it is, after a couple of very important conversations in Volume 2, it's abundantly clear that Will is, at the very least, not straight.
The Duffer Brothers both wrote and directed these final two episodes, and through this scene, in particular, they use a variety of camera angles to create a sense of duality on top of Will's speech. We see Jonathan watching the conversation unfold through the rearview mirror, Mike's oblivious innocence as Will pours his heart out, and Will's utter heartache as he hides his tears from his friend.
Matt Duffer shared what went into making the scene, saying, "Noah's amazing. We shot that scene, it was half a day shooting that scene from getting every angle, it was an important scene to get right, we felt. But Noah was, I thought, just incredible in that scene. I also love that scene between him and Charlie, him and his brother, Jonathan. His brother being there for him.
In a cast filled with talented actors, Schnapp has always been one of the most natural, and underrated, of the bunch. Hearing that Will will be taking center stage again in Season 5 as he comes into his own is an exciting prospect for long-time fans of the series.
