Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard was "really proud" of Noah Schnapp for coming out earlier this year.

Having played the monster-battling teens Mike Wheeler and Will Byers opposite each other for four seasons of the Netflix TV series – with a fifth and final run currently in development – they've essentially grown up together.

And now, speaking with GQ, Wolfhard has addressed his co-star's TikTok video.

"When I saw it, I just had a big smile on my face. I was just really proud of him," he said.

Elsewhere in the interview, the Ghostbusters: Afterlife star also discussed the relationship between the young Stranger Things family, which includes Millie Bobby Brown, Caleb McLaughlin and Gaten Matarazzo.

"We're not on every-day-text vibes in any way, and not because... it's like, do you text your cousins every day? Probably not," Wolfhard said.

"They're our family. We'll talk on each other's birthdays. We'll talk once in a while. But in the same way that family works, if I ever needed anything, they're there."

Meanwhile, Schnapp recently suggested that the show's fans will get necessary closure over his character's sexuality in the final season, with Will harbouring a secret crush on Wolfhard's character Mike.

"I can just tell you that I'm very, very excited for what's to come," he teased.

"I think they did a great job with Will's character this season, and beautifully addressed everything they needed to. The way they closed the show is just perfect – the story started with Will, and it'll end with Will."

Stranger Things seasons 1-4 are now streaming worldwide on Netflix.
