Schnapp's latest video came as a response to TMZ TV's video from October 5. In it, host Talia said:

"Strange things happen in London. Noah Schnapp, committing a heinous crime, eating a strawberry with the tops still on."

She highlighted that it was an unwashed strawberry, saying:

"Not an unwashed strawberry, though... But it's the leaves, and the leaves are the dirtiest part. He has got to be rich enough to hire somebody to cut the tops off of them."

Her co-host, meanwhile, shared a printed image of the actor eating the strawberry and revealed that he took it during his grocery shopping.

On the work front, Noah Schnapp is starring in Affluenza, a play directed and created by Andy Sandberg. It premiered on September 26 and will run until November 21 in London.

The play is about a teenager who runs over two people while driving in a drunken state. His rich parents then muster up a legal defence, with the help of a big lawyer, using his affluent lifestyle as part of their argument.

Schnapp spoke to Variety ahead of the play's premiere and said:

“I am so excited to make my stage debut in London with ‘Affluenza'. I started talking with Andy Sandberg a few months ago about finding the right opportunity to work together, and it’s thrilling to now be bringing this play to life in London."
"I wanted to be very intentional about what I took on next, and as I spend more time with this excellent script, I feel so connected to the characters. Without giving away too much, I get to play two very different roles, and it’s a story that’s really going to leave audiences talking and thinking,” he added.

Andy Sandberg also heaped praise on Schnapp, saying he is a "brilliant young actor who has captivated audiences on screen." He also lauded him for choosing an original play to make his debut on stage.
