In May, shortly after the premiere of season two of "The Wilds," Laprete told Elite Daily that he listened to some iconic emo music in preparation for his role as Henry.
"I listened to a lot of My Chemical Romance and All-American Rejects," Laprete said. "[Henry is] a very reclusive, introverted kid who keeps to himself and does his own thing. We were fortunate enough to have meetings with [writer] Sarah Streicher and [showrunner] Amy Harris before we started shooting, who gave us the real behind-the-scenes of these characters. I watched a lot of movies about emo kids, like 'Jennifer's Body' and 'Suicide Room.' But Henry has this other side of him where he was a Boy Scout in his past life. That was really interesting to portray — having this emo side but having this knowledge that becomes helpful while on the island, even if Henry does come off as a know-it-all and often says things at the wrong time."
Amazon Prime has released Laprete's Henry playlist on Spotify, giving fans insight into what Henry is listening to on the island. The playlist includes hits like "Somebody Else" by The 1975, "Chanel" by Frank Ocean, "Funeral" by Phoebe Bridgers, and "Welcome to the Black Parade" by MCR.
