Summary
- Actor Noah Schnapp experienced facial blood vessel damage while filming.
- Schnapp's intense screaming scene for Stranger Things was cut short.
- The actor learned his injury is common for women in labor.
Noah Schnapp, known for his role in Stranger Things, recently revealed a physically taxing filming experience for the show's latest season. While shooting a scene requiring intense screaming, the young actor inadvertently ruptured blood vessels throughout his face and body. This startling event occurred during the filming of a key twist for Season 5, Volume 1, which confirmed Will Byers possesses supernatural abilities.
Despite the significant effort and physical toll, the impactful three-second scene featuring Schnapp's distress was ultimately edited down. This led the actor to humorously question the extended filming duration for such a brief on-screen moment. His immediate concern prompted a call to a doctor, who reassured him that the injury, though alarming, is a common occurrence in strenuous physical exertion.
