Hollywood actor, Angus Cloud, who starred as the drug dealer Fezco “Fez” O’Neill on the HBO series Euphoria, has died. He was just 25 years old.
Cloud’s publicist, Cait Bailey, said Cloud died Monday at his family home in Oakland, California. No cause of death was given. In a statement, Cloud’s family said goodbye to “an artist, a friend, a brother, and a son, Angus was special to all of us in so many ways.”
The statement continued,
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.
