Angus Cloud, officially known as Conor Angus Cloud Hickey was an American actor.
Angus Cloud Biography
On July 10, 1998, Angus Cloud was born in Oakland, California, but the majority of his ancestors were Irish. Of his younger twin sisters and younger siblings, Cloud was the oldest. He and his Euphoria co-star Zendaya were classmates at Oakland School for the Arts School of Production Design.
As Fezco “Fez” O’Neill in the HBO teen drama Euphoria, actor Cloud is best remembered for his work. He portrayed Fez, a young drug dealer with an unorthodox past and a pure heart. He received praise for his performance from the critics and quickly won the hearts of the audience. Prior to being cast in Euphoria, he had no acting background.
Angus Cloud Career
He developed a passion for acting at a younger age, was consistent throughout his career, and rose to become one of the most sought-after American actors.
Cloud was first discovered by Euphoria casting director Jennifer Venditti while he (Angus) was a worker at Woodlands restaurant in New York. He had minor acting credits in two films North Hollywood and The Line. Cloud had also appeared in music videos for artists including Becky G, Karol G, and Juice WRLD.
However, he became a household name after he won the part of Fez, a high school drug dealer in Euphoria. The role turned Cloud into a breakout star and his character was expanded in the second season.
Sadly, the ‘Euphoria’ star has died. He passed away at 25 on Monday, July 31, 2023, at his family home in Oakland, California.
The Oakland Fire Department said it responded to a medical emergency at approximately 11:30 a.m., and the patient was already deceased. At this time of writing, the cause of his death has not been made public.
However, a source close to the family reveals Angus had been battling severe suicidal thoughts after he returned from Ireland where he had buried his father.
The actor’s family tells us; “It is with the heaviest heart that we had to say goodbye to an incredible human today. As an artist, a friend, a brother and a son, Angus was special to all of us in so many ways.”
Last week he buried his father and intensely struggled with this loss. The only comfort we have is knowing Angus is now reunited with his dad, who was his best friend. Angus was open about his battle with mental health and we hope that his passing can be a reminder to others that they are not alone and should not fight this on their own in silence
“We hope the world remembers him for his humor, laughter and love for everyone. We ask for privacy at this time as we are still processing this devastating loss”
He is set to posthumously star in the film Freaky Tales. At the time of this report, the family was planning his final funeral arrangement and the details are yet to be finalized. We will keep you updated.
