Angus Cloud (Fez on Euphoria) RIP

Hard to believe this talented young man is gone at age 25.

What a charming character he created on that show. He was gonna be a star.

Appears to be suicide. His father passed a week ago. Media outlets reported his father was his best friend.

What a horrible time for all involved there.

Incredibly sad news. His portrayal of Fezco was sublimely phenomenal. RIP, Angus.

One of the powerful things about the show was how it took potentially disposable side characters of drug dealers and drug addicts --like Fez and Ashtray and Faye, and made them people you very much cared about. This actor was excellent on the show. He will be missed. RIP

His mother is saying he didn’t commit suicide. She believes he overdosed on something, accidentally.

Yeah, even the initial ambulance call was for a potential OD.

Coroner says it was an accidental OD.

Angus Cloud's cause of death has been confirmed. The Alameda County Medical Examiner & Coroner tells Yahoo Entertainment it ruled the actor's July 31 death as an accidental overdose resulting from the combined effects of methamphetamine, cocaine, fentanyl and benzodiazepine.

Yikes. Hard to believe anyone would mix those by mistake or thinking it would be a good idea. Nice of them to say accidental but it sure sounds intentional.

Meth and fentanyl are commonly used together. Get too low with fentanyl, perk up with meth. Wondering if the meth was mixed with cocaine. He may have had valid script for the benzos.

So I guess his character wasn't all that much of a stretch on Euphoria.

I am skeptical on the "accidental" but I guess in lieu of any documentation of wanting to off himself, saying goodbye, a note, etc. maybe that is either the standard or out of family consideration?

I would wager that there's a lot of gray area between "accidental overdose" and "intentional overdose" when you're in a bad place.

i guess you have to err on the side of accident if there's no suicide note.

Either way he killed himself, which is very sad. He was a fine actor, but obviously a troubled soul.
