Angus Cloud’s Early Life & Childhood
Angus Cloud was born on July 10th, 1998 in Oakland, California. He is 23 years old as of 2022 and stands 5 feet 8 inches (180 cm) tall in height.
Talking about his education, he had studied theater at the Oakland School for the Arts in California. As per the source, he was going to relocate to Ireland to live with his relatives and family with no intention of pursuing acting professionally.

Debut As An Actor: Angus' Career Took Off With Euphoria
Before starring in what is now considered one of the best teen dramas of the 2020s, the rising star had never had any acting experience. When Jennifer approached him, he had no intention of acting as he was heading in a completely different direction in life.

After reading the character of Fezco for director Augustine Frizzel, he was cast as the charming felon in Euphoria by writer Sam Levinson, and the rest is history.
Fezco, nicknamed Fez, is a surprisingly charming character on a contentious series about a group of youngsters navigating life in the digital era by experimenting with drugs and sex.
His character Fez is a dropout who spends his days hanging around with his former classmates and peddling drugs out of the local petrol station. In the show, he is close with one of the lead Rue played by Zendaya, a drug addict who just got out of rehab but is still suffering from addiction.
While most of the cast members include semi-familiar faces like Barbie Ferreira, Jacob Elordi, Eric Dane, Alexa Demie, and Sydney Sweeney, Cloud is a newcomer in the Hollywood Screens.
Who Is The Lucky Girl In Angus’s Life? Is He Dating Someone?
Just as Season 2 of Euphoria aired, the series hinted at Fezco showing an unexpected romantic interest in Lexi played by Maude Apatow leading some fans to speculate if Cloud and Apatow are dating in real life.
Just recently, the actor posted an Instagram carousel with his on-screen picture followed by Apatow’s. A comment from that post even mentions, ‘"You two.’ What could be the truth? Are the two really dating?".
