Younger Noah Schnapp: I'm not used to talking about it. Crazy. 

Noah Schnapp: Oh God, I can't watch this. 

Younger Noah Schnapp: I mean, it's really cool, because last year I came back and forth, and I didn't really get, I mean, I did…

Noah Schnapp: Oh yeah, that was annoying. I always had FOMO. 

Younger Noah Schnapp: But I didn't really get to see everyone, and I had to leave and come back, and it was just a whole crazy thing. And this year is pretty crazy too, but it's… it's nice to know that I can just stay here, and… and stay with my friends and the crew and everyone and just… it's a real bonding experience.

Noah Schnapp: Yeah, he's right. It was so much nicer in Season 2 to be there, because Season 1, everyone got to hang out all year, and I was going back and forth from school, and would film for two days and then leave. And I had become best, best friends with Millie and Caleb. And I remember always… we would always be crying, hugging, saying goodbye, like, "No, I'm not gonna see you for so long." I just had such FOMO, they were all together having fun, and then I had to go to school and ugh. But Season 2 was so nice to be all together and, wow, that's crazy to watch.

[CLIP] Joyce Byers: Be careful, be careful. 

[CLIP] Dustin Henderson: Move.

[CLIP] Jonathan Byers: Guys, guys, go easy on him. 

Younger Noah Schnapp: I'm still me, and my life's still going the same way, it's just… just all this attention the show has gotten, and the love and support from countries across the world is just, blows my mind. And I think that's what really shocked me the most, how this… 'cause we all thought it was just, we were like a little family.

Noah Schnapp: The same answer. 

Younger Noah Schnapp: We were just doing a little show and then it becomes this huge hit on Netflix, and people in Brazil are, are watching this show and it just… that's how my life has changed. 

Noah Schnapp: Yeah, he was right. That's… I echo that same thought. 

[CLIP] Will Byers: I'm sorry. 

Younger Noah Schnapp: When I play my character, I really want people to feel his pain. And when I'm… when I go… when I become Will and I play Will, I always think about how I want, like, when I'm being… when I'm in pain…

Noah Schnapp: Get it out. 

Younger Noah Schnapp: …I want people to feel my pain and to cry, I guess, when they're watching me, and I feel that's the same with the other characters. 

Noah Schnapp: True, I do hope you guys cry when I'm in pain because it means I did my job. It wasn't that bad. I thought it would be worse. I thought I'd be cringing more, but it was okay. It's just nice to see how far we've all come, and how so much has changed, but how little has changed.
