Angus Cloud’s death came as a shock to his colleagues and fans, as the young actor charmed audiences with his comedic talent. Discovered on the streets, Cloud quickly became a fan favorite for his role as Fezco in the HBO teen drama series “Euphoria.” Fezco, a teenage drug dealer with a compassionate side, resonated with viewers due to his complex relationships and the care he provided to his adoptive brother, Ashtray.
Cloud’s ability to navigate between levity and dark themes in “Euphoria” showcased his dramatic acting skills.
