5 min

Angus Cloud, best known for his role in Euphoria, continues to be celebrated by his loved ones in his final film, “Your Lucky Day.” The trailer for the thriller, which features Cloud as a hostage taker named Sterling, was recently released, offering a glimpse into his last on-screen performance. This film is particularly significant as it pays tribute to Cloud, who tragically passed away at the age of 25.

In “Your Lucky Day,” Cloud’s character, Sterling, witnesses an older man winning a lottery ticket at a convenience store. The situation takes a deadly turn as he holds the man at gunpoint to acquire the ticket, leading to a shootout with an officer present at the store. The film explores the moral dilemmas faced by the witnesses who must decide how far they are willing to go and how much blood they are willing to spill for a cut of the $156 million.

Cloud’s co-stars in the film include Elliot Knight, Sterling Beaumon, Mousa Hussein Kraish, and Jessica Garza. Speaking about Cloud, Jessica Garza fondly remembered him as a “beam of light.” She praised his qualities both as an actor and as a person, describing him as kind, humble, thoughtful, and deeply sincere. She expressed her gratitude and honor for the opportunity to work with him and get to know him personally.

The film’s director, Daniel Brown, shared the story of how Cloud was cast in the lead role of “Your Lucky Day.” Brown’s wife had suggested Cloud for the role after watching him in Euphoria, and Cloud was one of the first actors to express interest. The character was inspired by people Brown had known in his life, individuals who were complex, selling drugs, getting into fights, yet fiercely protective and loyal to their friends. Cloud’s own experiences and outlook made him a perfect fit for the role.

Brown also highlighted Cloud’s kindness and enthusiasm for others, describing him as “one of one.”

At the end of “Your Lucky Day,” a message reads “For Angus,” honoring the late actor’s contribution to the film.

Angus Cloud’s passing was confirmed by his family in a statement, where they remembered him as an artist, friend, brother, and son. They acknowledged his open battle with mental health and hoped his passing would serve as a reminder to others that they are not alone in their struggles. They emphasized the importance of seeking help and not fighting mental health battles in silence. Above all, they wished the world to remember Angus for his humor, laughter, and love for everyone.

Cloud’s family asked for privacy as they continued to process their devastating loss. His passing was a significant loss to the entertainment industry and his fans, and “Your Lucky Day” will be a poignant tribute to his talent and spirit when it is released in theaters on November 10 and on digital platforms on November 14.
