“Angus was pure light and joy,” Colman told the outlet. He also added, “And he was also a little odd. Which is what I loved about him.”
He then shared a sweet story about the last time he had seen Angus before his death.
“The last time I saw him was at a party for a clothing brand, and he had like five or six people around him, and he was like, ‘Oh, Colman, hey man, it’s good to see you.’ We hugged, and we started talking, and I pulled him away for a minute,” Colman said.
“We’re talking for 10 minutes and at some point I said, ‘Oh, I’m so sorry. I don’t wanna take you away from your friends.’ And he looked back and said, ‘I don’t know them.’ I was like, ‘What?’ But people sort of, like, glommed onto him. … People glommed onto him because he was just that guy,” he continued. “He was like the pied piper in a way. So he always had new people around him because he was interesting, quirky and funny, real sweet, and also very real.”
“There’s many comments made out there on social media saying you wouldn’t get a realer person in this industry because he didn’t know how to put on airs,” he noted. “He didn’t know how to not be himself, and that’s what I appreciated so much. And I think there’s a huge loss of that.”
Several Euphoria stars have shared tributes to the late actor, including Zendaya and Maude Apatow. See their posts here.
