Euphoria cast members have paid tribute to their friend and costar Angus Cloud following his death on Tuesday. His passing was confirmed by his family in a tragic statement to TMZ.
The news comes as a shock to his loved ones and fans as Cloud was only 25 years old.
“Words are not enough to describe the infinite beauty that is Angus (Conor),” his Euphoria co-star Zendaya wrote on Instagram, alongside the picture below.
“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,” she continued.
“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. My heart is with his mother and family at this time and please be kind and patient as grief looks different for everyone.”
Barbie Ferreria also took to IG to post a gorgeous photo of the star, writing: “I love you so much. You will be missed tremendously.”
Another heartfelt tribute was posted by Sydney Sweeney, who shared multiple photos of the pair together with their co-stars.
“Angus you were an open soul, with the kindest heart, and you filled every room with laughter,” she wrote.
“This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to post, and I’m 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.”
“We are incredibly saddened to learn of the passing of Angus Cloud,” the official Euphoria Twitter page wrote.
“He was immensely talented and a beloved part of the HBO and Euphoria family. We extend our deepest condolences to his friends and family during this difficult time.”
Euphoria creator Sam Levinson echoed those sentiments in a statement to Deadline.
“There was no one quite like Angus. He was too special, too talented and way too young to leave us so soon.
“He also struggled, like many of us, with addiction and depression. I hope he knew how many hearts he touched. I loved him. I always will. Rest in peace and God Bless his family,” Levinson told the publication.
“Rest easy brother ❤️🕊️,” wrote Javon Walton, who played Cloud’s on-screen brother Ashtray on Euphoria.
Rapper Drake, who serves as an executive producer on Euphoria, posted a photo of Cloud to his Instagram Stories.
Musician Questlove shared a photo of the star on IG, writing: “Fez was the spiritual centre of Euphoria and definitely my fav character on the show. Love to his entire family and to those who knew him.”
“Not the news I wanted to hear this morning. Rest in power Angus Cloud,” wrote Rapper Denzel Curry, along with a pic of them together.
Model Jordyn Woods shared some photos of herself with Cloud on IG.
“Such a rare soul… instantly friends from meeting when we did this event together. You will be missed.”
In another, she’s holding a drink bottle that Cloud wrote her name on.
“I have this art piece he made me on a water bottle and I’ll keep it forever,” she wrote.
Cloud’s Euphoria co-star, Storm Reid, shared a beloved scene of Cloud in the Emmy-award-winning series with the caption, “The tears just won’t stop.”
Musician Kid Cudi expressed his sadness too.
“This hurts man. One of the realest dudes in this business. Fuck,” he wrote on Twitter.
Our hearts go out to Cloud’s loved ones, fans, and anyone affected by his passing.
