Angus Cloud, the talented actor known for his role as Fezco “Fez” O’Neill in HBO’s “Euphoria,” has tragically passed away at the age of 25. In a heartfelt statement released by his family, they expressed their deep sadness and described Angus as an exceptional individual who touched the lives of many. The loss of his father just a week ago had deeply affected him, and he was grappling with his grief. The family finds solace in the belief that Angus and his father are now reunited, as they were the best of friends. Angus was open about his struggles with mental health, and his family hopes that his passing will serve as a reminder that no one should face these challenges alone and in silence. They request privacy during this difficult time as they process this devastating loss.
According to sources close to the family, Angus was battling suicidal thoughts upon his return from Ireland, where his father was laid to rest. It is reported that he was staying with family as he coped with his emotional pain. The Oakland Police Department is currently investigating the circumstances surrounding his death, and no further information is available at this time.
Following his untimely passing, Angus’s co-stars from “Euphoria,” including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Javon “Wanna” Walton, and Storm Reid, took to social media to share their heartfelt remembrances. Zendaya, in an emotional Instagram post, described Angus as someone of infinite beauty and expressed her gratitude for having known him as a brother. Others associated with the show, such as executive producer Drake and series creator Sam Levinson, also paid tribute to the actor.
Actress Rachel Zegler and model Gigi Hadid also honored Angus in their social media posts, recognizing his kind and gentle spirit. Angus gained recognition through his breakthrough role in “Euphoria,” where he portrayed the lovable drug dealer Fez. He had also appeared in films like “North Hollywood” (2021) and “The Line” (2023), as well as music videos for Noah Cyrus and Juice WRLD. Recently, he had finished filming a monster thriller directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, known for their work on “Scream VI,” according to Variety.
Surprisingly, Angus had never aspired to be an actor. In an interview with GQ magazine in 2019, he recounted being approached on a Manhattan street by a casting company representative. Initially skeptical, he dismissed it as a potential scam. Prior to his acting career, Angus worked at a “chicken and waffle joint” and was involved in set construction and stage lighting for theatrical productions. Despite his rise to fame and success, Angus maintained a grounded approach to the industry. He shied away from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, often giving deadpan responses during interviews and expressing his disbelief at his own journey.
Angus Cloud’s passing is a tremendous loss to the entertainment industry and to those who knew him personally. His talent, humor, and love for others will be remembered by the world.
