On July 31, Angus Cloud died at his home in California. The cause of death is yet unknown. According to the family’s statement, his father had also passed away a week ago.

In the HBO series “Euphoria,” actor Angus Cloud played drug dealer Fezco “Fez” O’Neill. He has passed away. He was 25 years old. Claude passed away on Sunday, July 31, at his family’s Oakland, California, home, according to his publicist, Kate Bailey. It was not stated what caused the death.

The family of Claude said goodbye to “an artist, a friend, a brother, and a son” in a statement.

He fought this loss the worst last week while also attending his father’s funeral, according to the family. “The fact that Angus is back with his father, who was his best friend, is the one thing that gives us comfort. We hope that Angus’s passing will serve as a reminder to others that they are not alone and do not have to battle mental illness in secret. Angus was very open about his personal battle with mental illness.
His family went on to say that they hoped people would remember him for his love of people, laughing, and humor.

Claude had never acted before being cast in “Euphoria”. While he was walking down the street in New York, casting scout Eleanor Hendrix spotted him. At first Claude was suspicious of this and suspected fraud. She was then approached by casting director Jennifer Venditti and series creator Sam Levinson eventually made her a co-star with Zendaya for the first two seasons.

Some individuals thought Claude was so convincing as Fez that they began to wonder if the character was indeed the one Claude was trying to pit himself against.

“I don’t like hearing that it’s so easy! Let yourself be and just be you. Then you go ahead and do that, I say. Claude told Variety, “It’s not that easy. I spent a lot of work on this figure. You can have any kind of belief. I’ve got nothing to do with it.

With the role, Claude became the star of one of the most popular television programs. She made her film debut in a supporting part in The Line, a college drama that had its Tribeca Festival premiere earlier this year and starred John Malkovich and Alex Wolff. In addition to his recent co-star role in “Scream 6,” Claude has appeared in music videos for Juice WRLD, Becky G, and Carol G. ‘Euphoria’s’ third season has not yet begun production.

 

Nobody could compare to Angus, according to a statement from Levinson. “He was unique, creative, and too young to depart from us so suddenly. Like all of us, he too battled addiction and sadness. I wish he was aware of the number of hearts he won over. I admired her. I will always pray that he rest in peace and that God will bless his family.

Klout is “extremely talented and a beloved member of the HBO and ‘Euphoria’ family,” according to a statement from HBO. We offer her friends and family our sincere condolences during this trying time.
