Max has woven a touching homage dedicated to Angus Cloud into a selection of ‘Euphoria’ episodes. Both the inaugural episode of the series and the opening episode of its second season features a poignant title card that reveres the gifted actor behind Fezco’s character before the episode unfolds.
Displaying the words “In memory of Angus Cloud 1998 – 2023” alongside a grayscale portrait of Cloud, the tribute graces the screen. Take a moment to view the award depicted below.
Cloud, who had no prior acting experience before the show, unexpectedly stumbled upon the cherished role of the fiercely loyal drug dealer, Fezco, purely by chance. While casually strolling through Brooklyn, a scout serendipitously approached Cloud about the position.
Zendaya also utilized Instagram to extend a heartfelt tribute to the actor. She expressed, “Words fall short in encapsulating the boundless beauty that Angus (Conor) embodied. I hold profound gratitude for the opportunity to have shared a connection with him in this lifetime, to regard him as a brother, to be embraced by his warm and compassionate eyes, his radiant smile, and his contagious laughter that echoes in my mind (I find myself grinning at the thought). People often employ the phrase to describe those they hold dear, saying, ‘Their presence could illuminate any room.’ Yet, let me affirm. He was the ultimate personification of it.”
