The answer depends on which "Newt" you mean: Newton Artemis Fido Scamander for the Fantastic Beasts wizard, or, for The Maze Runner, his real name is intentionally never revealed, though he's named after Isaac Newton, and author James Dashner confirmed it's not "Sam".
Thomas Brodie-Sangster: Newt.
Newton Artemis Fido Scamander or "Newt" is a character created by J. K. Rowling. He is the protagonist of the Fantastic Beasts film series, a spin-off prequel to the Harry Potter novel and film series.
Yes, the character Newt from The Maze Runner series has been canonically confirmed as gay by author James Dashner, primarily in response to fan discussions, though this wasn't explicit in the original books or movies. While Newt is the main confirmed LGBTQ+ character, many fans also headcanon other characters like Thomas or Minho as bisexual, pansexual, or queer, and there's a strong "Newtmas" (Newt/Thomas) ship within the fandom, fueled partly by Dashner's confirmation and fan interpretations.
there are several theories. Like in the movies he could get infected in that tunnel in the begging of tdc. Or in the scorch trials when they escaped WCKD and a crank bumbed into him. In books i think the virus was in the air and water and stuff so he could get infected easily in the scorch.
Newt's last words were "Please, Tommy.
Newt Day is a holiday celebrated by Maze Runner fans and the community on the 250th day of the year. This is because Newt's death was on page 250 in some copies of The Death Cure book. This day usually falls on September 7th, except during leap years, in which Newt Day will be on September 6th.
Minho (books 1–3, 5) is an Asian Group A Glader and Keeper of the Runners. He later became Leader of the Gladers in the Scorch. Instead of being named after someone historically famous, he is named after James Dashner's niece's Korean husband. His subject number is A7, and his title is "the leader".
Aris Jones was the only male member of Group B, and was Teresa Agnes' equivalent in the Maze Trials. He had a history of working for WICKED before joining the Right Arm. He was named after Greek philosopher, Aristotle.
They discovered that Thomas' blood contained special antibiotics that could cure and eliminate the effects of the Flare virus.
The main LGBTQ+ character confirmed by J.K. Rowling is Albus Dumbledore, revealed to be gay and to have had a passionate, intense love relationship with the dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald in their youth, though this isn't explicitly detailed in the books but rather in later interviews and supplementary materials. While not canon, some fans also interpret other characters like Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, or even Harry Potter as queer, but Dumbledore and Grindelwald are the key confirmed figures.
However, Harry Potter and Hannah Abbott are called at the same time for their Transfiguration exam, which may mean Transfiguration O.W. Ls are called in order of first name. The only known characters to receive all twelve O.W.L.s are Percy Weasley, Bill Weasley, and Bartemius Crouch Junior.
The last word that Newt says to Thomas in the film is simply "Tommy" - not counting the narration of the letter, of course.
The "kiss" was Dylan O'Brien and Thomas Brodie Sangster messing around (I think they might have been dared?), but James Dashner has confirmed that Newt is gay. I wish newtmas was real, but it's not. There's a possibility that Newt had an interest in Thomas (I believe that he did), but it was never canon.

Later, Teresa comes to Thomas with Aris. Teresa and Aris kiss passionately and tell him that they've known each other longer than Thomas may have thought, and she explains that she has been manipulating Thomas all along.
Zart was the Keeper of the Track-hoes/Gardeners, and was one of the first Keepers that Thomas worked with. Sometimes, the other Gladers call him Zart the Fart. It is possible that he was named after the genius composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
A3 was fry pan A8 was chuck!
James Minho and Newt are really good friends, NOT gay lovers.

He was named after Charles Darwin, the inventor of the theory of evolution.
Totally useless trivia: Frypan's real name is Siggie.
There are intense scenes involving threat and attacks from large biomechanical creatures which roam the maze at night. There are also intense moments of threat involving infected characters who become aggressive and violent, and scenes of threat when characters disagree with each other.
