Angus Cloud’s Childhood Friends Honor “Fearless” Euphoria Star

Angus Cloud is being remembered for his life out of the spotlight. 

Two months after he died of an accidental overdose at age 25, the actor’s loved ones are sharing their most precious memories of him growing up in Oakland, Calif. 

Years before he played the drug dealer Fezco on the HBO show Euphoria, Cloud—real name Conor Angus Cloud Hickey—was a teenager in the East Bay working at Whole Foods and collecting Powerpuff Girls action figures, according to his friends who spoke to People in an article published Oct. 6.

His childhood pal Ibrahim Dioum told the outlet, “Conor wasn’t afraid of anything,” while another friend Tre Sorensen noted, “He was just fearless, man.”

“Conor would be just standing in the projects, and it was really scary, but he was hella happy. His bed was on the floor with this tiny little window next to it,” Dioum said. “He would put his juice boxes outside the window in the snow and later grab the juice when it was cold and drink it. It was so hilarious and cool. That was just him.”
