Noah Schnapp’s Vocal Stance On The Israel-Hamas War Divided Fans
One major controversy Schnapp was involved in centered around his beliefs regarding the Israel-Hamas crisis. In 2023, the Jewish actor shared a video of himself laughing and surrounded by people with stickers that read “Zionism Is Sexy” and “Hamas Is Isis.”
Schnapp was extremely vocal about his support for Israel after the surprise Hamas attack in October 2023, which kicked off a war between Hamas and Israel.
At the time, Schnapp released a statement on his social media in which he said he was afraid for his “brothers and sisters in Israel.”
He said, “I am truly heartbroken to see the brutal murders of innocent children, women and soldiers fighting to defend themselves. I, like others, want peace for both Palestinians and Israelis. Let’s stop the rhetoric and choosing sides. Instead we must recognize that we are all on the side of the fight against terrorism.”

Noah Schnapp Claims His Beliefs Were ‘Misconstrued’
However, Schnapp’s statement and refusal to change his stance generated even more public criticism. Fans soon rallied for the actor to be fired from his role on “Stranger Things,” with threats to boycott the show’s fifth and final season, which recently started production.
As reported by The Blast, in January this year, Schnapp finally addressed the controversy in a now-deleted TikTok video, claiming that his “beliefs have been so far misconstrued.”

He added, “We all hope for the same things, that being those innocent people still being held hostage in Gaza to be returned to their families, and equally hope for an end to the loss of innocent life in Palestine — so many of those people being women and children, and it’s horrible to see.”
