Javon Walton, Euphoria's 'Ashtray' REACTS to Season 2 Finale & Working with Angus Cloud (Exclusive)

Spoilers ahead! Javon Walton, aka Ashtray, chats with ET’s Denny Directo about the season 2 finale of ‘Euphoria.’ The explosive climax left fans with more questions than answers: Is Fez alive? Is Ash really dead? According to Javon, both of these fates are TBD! Javon praises his co-star, Angus Cloud, and confirms they’re just as close behind the scenes as they are on screen. He also reacts to fan theories swirling around Tom Holland, Zendaya’s boyfriend, potentially filming a secret cameo. Plus, the 15-year-old weighs in on just how realistic the 'Euphoria' high school experience is proving to be as he returns to a real school himself for the first time since second grade! All episodes of 'Euphoria' are now streaming on HBO Max.

I’m surprised how nobody is talking about how this is the first time we get any real emotion from Fez. Never once did he ever be emotional about anything.

No for real, I was looking for those comments. Fez is always a chill and loving guy so it pretty much broke me to see him crying for Ash

They’ve been getting a lot of bad press because of the drug usage but it the most realistic up close look at how it really is so don’t complain about the situations you’re seeing because it’s acting at it’s very best and I don’t understand what people think it’s like in real time, it’s bad unglued scary and sometimes people don’t come back from addiction they die instead.

[@ivy3723]

For me, someone who’s only 24 and have had addiction problems for about 6/7 years, BPD, severe anxiety plus physical health problems, I appreciate how real the show is when it shows the real, dark side of addiction. It can be triggering but it’s also a reminder of why not to do drugs and resist the urge because the spiral happens so fast. It also shows mental health in a realistic way which I appreciate. People who haven’t been through the struggles see it as glamourising, people who have been through it, appreciate and relate to it.
