In a previous interview with Variety, the actor discussed the short-form video app as he began to be recognized for his online presence rather than his acting career.
“I love being online because I feel like you can just be yourself and it’s so easy to open up. I just love social media because it’s just on a screen with all these people,” he said. “You don’t see anyone so it’s easy to open up and have fun and not worry about what other people think. TikTok especially is just so casual and very nonjudgmental.”
Schnapp added: “It’s one big inside joke and everyone understands it. It’s crazy to see how everyone can collectively come together and agree and decide on doing things.”
Back in April, Schnapp’s “Stranger Things” co-star Joe Keery faced a similar hack on Twitter.
