Angus Cloud’s ‘Euphoria’ Family Pays Tribute to Late Star
Angus Cloud died Monday at just 25 years old, and now his “Euphoria” family is paying tribute.
The death of Cloud, best known for playing Fezco on the HBO series, left his co-stars heartbroken.
Zendaya, who stars are Rue, wrote on Instagram, "Words are not enough to describe the infinite beauty that is Angus (Conor). I’m so grateful I got the chance to know him in this life, to call him a brother, to see his warm kind eyes and bright smile, or hear his infectious cackle of a laugh (I’m smiling now just thinking of it) I know people use this expression often when talking about folks they love…'they could light up any room they entered' but boy let me tell you, he was the best at it. I’d like to remember him that way. For all of the boundless light, love and joy he always managed to give us. I’ll cherish every moment."
She added, "My heart is with his mother and family at this time and please be kind and patient as grief looks different for everyone."

Maude Apatow, who plays Lexi Howard, shared, “Angus was the funniest person ever. I would get so excited to see on the schedule that we would be working together because I knew we’d have the best day, laughing so hard. He was the sweetest and made everyone around him so happy. He was just the best. Words can’t really capture how magical of a person he was. My heart is broken.”
She included a message to the late star: “Angus, getting to know and work with you was one of the greatest joys and blessings of my life. I will love you forever. ❤️.”
Sydney Sweeney, who plays Cassie Howard, posted on Instagram, "Angus you were an open soul, with the kindest heart, and you filled every room with laughter. This is the hardest thing ive ever had to post, and im struggling to find all the words. You will be missed more than you know, but I'm so blessed to have known you in this lifetime, and I'm sure everyone who has ever met you feels the same. This heartache is real and I wish we could've had one more hug and 711 run. All my love is with you. 🖤."
“Euphoria” creator Sam Levinson shared with Deadline, "There was no one quite like Angus. He was too special, too talented and way too young to leave us so soon.
