The 25-year-old was born and raised in Oakland to Irish parents and had planned to move to Ireland before becoming involved in the world of film and TV.
Cloud studied set-building and lighting at Oakland School for the Arts.
The young star was working at a restaurant near the Barclays Center in New York City when Euphoria casting director Jennifer Venditti approached him for the role of Fezco.

He was close to moving his entire life to Ireland where the majority of his family resides, however Venditti caught him just at the right moment.
Although, he was initially sceptical of the casting director's offer.
“She asked me if I would be down to do an audition, but she didn’t exactly say what it was for," he explained to the Wall Street Journal. "I thought it was some type of scam."
However, Cloud struck out and landed the role of Fez.
HBO wrote in a statement regarding the actor's death: "We are incredibly saddened to learn of the passing of Angus Cloud. 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."
