Angus Cloud made a good impression in his first ever audition tape, which led him to the role of Fezco in Euphoria.
In the video released by his mum Lisa Cloud, she gushed about how the never-seen-before tape “captured” her son’s “extraordinary spirit”.
The six-minute long clip shows Angus being his laidback, jokey self as he described himself as “goofy”.
He also revealed that he liked to engage “in any random spontaneous activity” and always found “fun stuff to do”.
Giving an example of the “craziest thing” he ever did, Angus revealed he broke into San Francisco zoo and ended up in a kangaroo cage.
He went on to laugh as he recalled hiding from security as they tried to find him and his friends.
The actor was first scouted by a talent agent in Brooklyn and was best known for his part in teen drama series Euphoria.
He died at his family home in Oakland, California, aged 25 on July 31.
Angus’ mum Lisa issued a new statement about his death on her Facebook page last weekend.
As part of her lengthy post, she said Angus had a “joyful” last day but had been struggling with grief after his father’s death in May.
Her son, she added, had been reorganising his bedroom and discussing his plans for the future with her just hours before he died.
Such plans included his intention to help provide for his sisters at college and helping his mum “emotionally and financially”.
She continued: “When we hugged goodnight we said how much we loved each other and he said he would see me in the morning.
“I don’t know if or what he may have put in his body after that.
“I only know that he put his head on the desk where he was working on art projects, fell asleep and didn’t wake up.
“We may find out that he overdosed accidentally and tragically, but it’s abundantly clear that he did not intend to check out of this world.”
Lisa went on to make it clear that social media posts suggesting his loss of life was intentional “is not the case”.
Results from a post-mortem are yet to confirm his official cause of death.
Angus is survived by his mum and younger sisters, Molly and Fiona.
