Spoilers for theEuphoriaseason two finaleAll My Life, My Heart Has Yearned for a Thing I Cannot Namebelow.
I was pretty bummed to be honest.
Im curious what your relationship is like with Javon Walton, who plays Ashtray.
How long did the siege and shootout take to film?
I know other actors have spoken about havingthe freedom to improviselines during filming.
Was that available for this scene, or were things pretty tightly written?Oh no, no.
Theres always that freedom.
You kinda just go with how you feel in the moment.
If Sam likes it, then hell tell you to do it again.
If he doesnt like it, then hell ask you not to do it.
Was there anything in this scene that was improvised?
Theres so much anguish from Fezco, and Im wondering how you summoned it.What does anguish exactly mean?
He is so afraid of what could happen to Ashtray.
How did you get into that headspace?Yeah, it was a sad couple days for me.
I was crying and stuff.
What he said to me, it just cut deep.
It brought up a lot of everything Ive been through.
I dont know how he knew how to touch my buttons like that.
Without him, it wouldve been more difficult.
Do you mind sharing what he said to you?I could share, yeah.
To be honest with you, it was a compliment.
You know how most compliments are like, Nice sweater, or just surface-level?
He just told me, Bro, youre here.
Youre doing good work.
But youre here and youre doing it.
Its not often you receive an actual, deeper-than-surface-level compliment about your life.
I read an interview where you said, Not all your actions define you.
Good people are forced to do bad things.
Im wondering if you think Fez is a good person.A good person?
That depends on who you ask.
Im asking you.Yeah, I think hes a good person.
Everything for me, its about intentions.
If you have bad, evil intentions of wanting to harm someone, that makes you a bad person.
And I dont think that defines you as a bad person.
At the end of the finale, Rue and Lexi dont talk about what happened to Fezco.
What are your hopes for Fezco?
Im ready for anything.
Do you know the explanation or origin for Fezcos first name?I cant answer that.
You went to the Oakland School for the Arts and did technical theater, building sets and doing lighting.
They dont have that much money, but I think it could be possible.
Fez tears up when he and Lexi watchStand by Metogether.
I mean, I feel like I cry pretty easily in movies, to be honest.
That becomes the outlet for it.Yeah.
Tears are good; I recommend.
I feel bad for people who cant cry, you know?
Cause I feel like that shit builds up, and its like a release.
After I cry, I usually feel a bit better.
Then somebody gives you a proper hug and is like, Are you okay?
And youre just like, No.
Ive been acting like Ive been okay this whole time, but no, Im not.
I think hes pretty badass.
Do you have a favorite movie of his?
One you go back and rewatch?I like that showPeaky Blinders, when hes in that.
And theres one where hes playing his own twin, and theyre London gangsters and shit.
That one is pretty fire too.
Hes great inPeaky Blinders, but everyone is great inPeaky Blinders, so its hard to pick.I know.
That show is so good.
