InEuphorias blood-splattered season-two finale, SWAT lasers center on Ashtrays face as the cops raid his home with Fezco.
But the details of Ashtrays demise are still fuzzy … even for actor Javon Wanna Walton.
But hey, itsEuphoria.Anything can happen.
For stuff like that, I like to have my own space and I like to be treated normally.
It was on the spot, the writing, like a day before.
Ashtrays death was off-screen.
Were just going to have to wait to find out for season three.
When he heard that sound, it almost startled him, and thats why he pulled the trigger.
He knew when he started going he couldnt stop because he wouldve just gotten shot.
Thats all he cares about.
And he does not want to go to a foster home.
Ash was taken in by Fezcos grandma and had a really rough childhood.
All we know is Ashtray has had a tough life.
All hes known is violence and drugs.
Can you walk me through the process of shooting the final scene?
How many takes did you do?
How did you prepare beforehand?We were shooting for a good three days.
When it comes to the emotional scenes, I have to just let myself go there for that.
Why do you think Ashtray didnt get up from the bathtub despite Fezs protesting?
And hes not about surrendering.
Hes about protecting his home at the end of the day.
It was a very vulnerable state for him.
He lost it all and wasnt thinking properly.
A lot of that ending was a mystery.
We recently spoke withAlanna Ubach, and she mentioned that a lot ofEuphorialines are unscripted or improvised.
I love to add that extra little bit of flavor.
Sam loves giving us freedom for our characters.
Then there was this pool scene that was cut that was me flirting with this older chick.
I wish it made it.
Does Ashtray have a similar dream?
Thats his whole vibe.
He doesnt care about all of that other stuff.
Hes really just about being a gangster and making money.
He aint soft at all.
Does Faye ever earn Ashtrays trust?No.
I dont think anybody really earns Ashtrays trust except Fezco.
Thats the only person he can trust.
I think thats why Sam thought it would be a really good twist to add.
It wasnt really expected, except for all of the leaks that Ive seen on TikTok.
How do you feel about the leaks?
I was like,How did they know that was exactly that?Because it happened word for word.
I was like,Oh my God.
They were like, I found it on Reddit.
Do you think Ash knew he and Fezco werent biological brothers?Thats a good question.
Man, I dont know.
At the end of the day, it doesnt matter.
They treat each other exactly like blood.
Have you heard the rumors about Ashtray being the third lost Jacobs son?
What do you think of that?Ive heard that rumor so many times.
He wouldve had to get kidnapped or something.
I know your little brother actually played little Ashtray in the backstory episode.
His name is Daelo.
The director absolutely loved him, so he ended up being baby Ashtray.
When he came home from set that day, he was like, Man, it was so nasty.
I had to eat cold food.
In the credits, they list you as Javon Wanna Walton.
What does the nickname mean?
How did it come about?Wanna, it came about when I was really little.
I was always like, I wanna do this, I wanna do that.
