Last year, the world was shocked by the sudden death of Angus Cloud, but none more so than his fellow cast on HBO's hit series Euphoria. Cloud died of an accidental drug overdose last summer, and this loss devastated the world; it especially impacted those who knew him personally, like Hunter Schafer, who discussed her grief for the first time in a cover story for GQ.
When the subject of Cloud came up, Schafer immediately started crying. They were the same age and had grown close during filming. Since both were new to acting, Schafer feels as if they grew up together, both on and off the show. “I’ve never had a friend that I was that close to and that was my age pass before,” she told the interviewer. “It’s really surreal. It doesn’t make sense. And yeah, it’s new. It’s a new kind of grieving."
