After the 'Euphoria' Season 2 finale aired, fans rushed online to comment. Now, Javon Walton, who plays Ashtray, is opening up about the scene.
In the meantime, check out the Euphoria Season 2 finale now on HBO Max. While HBO has not shared a definite release date for Euphoria Season 3, it is believed that the show will return in 2024. While his character’s death seems sealed, Walton hopes that somehow Ashtray will survive and go on the run. Just then, the red dot of a sniper’s rifle appeared on Ashtray’s chest, moving up to his head until the noise of a shot rang out. Fez, knowing police would be on their way, decided to take the fall for the murder, but Ashtray wouldn’t let him. Ashtray began shooting through the door, leading to an exchange of gunfire.
'Euphoria' actor Javon Walton breaks down the Season 2 finale and shares that Ashtray fate was originally written differently.
And I was one of the only kids that was pronouncing the drug names right! He was going for a bigger kid, but he liked that I was smaller. There’s this role called ‘Euphoria.’” I was like, “Sure.” I didn’t even think that it was something that I would even think of. And he really just wanted to protect me, like how I wanted to protect him. I just wanted to follow that because that’s what he thought was best. He got a lot more violent this season, because last season, he was younger. That was the very first scene I ever shot. Like when he was hitting Cal in the head, it would just be some super G stuff the whole time. And we really see that at the end of the last episode. He really just wanted to protect me, and he wanted to die for me. That was so long ago now, like six months ago, so I don’t remember the exact dialogue. He is very loyal to the people he loves.
"Euphoria" season 2 has officially come to an end. Here's everything that went down in the season finale.
Nate, with a flash drive of all his dad's tapes in hand, said that he didn't want his apology and that he was seeking revenge. Since the last episode, Cassie was infuriated with Lexi because of her play, which was inspired by her and her classmates. He reveals that he had seen all of his dad's sex tapes when he was 11 and that he would have recurring sexual dreams involving Cal for years after that (which we caught a glimpse of earlier in the season). Cal then apologizes to Nate for not being present or protecting him as he should have. After that, Ashtray shot an officer, and the red laser was pointed to his forehead before he was shot to his death. Shortly after, Fez tried to stop Ash from sticking a box cutter in Custer's neck, but he was too late. The play was also playing out in real-time, while the tensions were incredibly high at Fezco and Ashtray's house after Faye's boyfriend, Custer, ratted them out to the cops about Mouse's murder.
HBO's 'Euphoria' Season 2 ended Feb. 27 and seemingly featured Ashtray's death. In a new 'Esquire' interview, Javon Walton hopes Ashtray will return in ...
“Ash is definitely going to find a way back to him because that’s the person he cares about most.” I don't know how, but I feel like he's definitely going to be able to get out somehow,” said the actor. “You know that Fez needs Ash, and Ash needs Fez. They both really rely on each other, so it’s going to be really hard for both of them.” In a new interview with Esquire, however, actor Javon Walton says he hopes Ashtray is alive and returns for Season 3. But Ashtray defied his brother’s guidance, locked himself in the bathroom with a bunch of guns, and accidentally shot Fezco in the stomach during a shootout with police. Euphoria Season 2 ended with a finale so explosive even viewers’ extensive plot theories couldn’t predict what was going to happen.
Angus Cloud, who plays Fezco on Euphoria, on the future of Fexi, his last scene with Javon Walton's Ashtray, and the meaningful compliment he received from ...
I’ll be having other stuff I want to cry about that I ain’t cried about yet, and then I watch a sad-ass kids’ movie, like Coco or some shit, and then I fucking start crying. The way I do it with Fezco is I just try to put myself in his shoes and then react the way I think he would react. And I don’t think that defines you as a bad person. You’re doing good work.” And since he knows about a lot of the personal stuff I’ve had to deal with, he was just like, “You know how easy it would be for you not to be here. The kids in that program and in all the art programs at that high school are doing really amazing things. How difficult do you think Lexi’s play Our Life would be for a high-school crew to pull off? At Oakland School for the Arts, they do a good job at building sets and lighting. I think anyone who takes care of their family and tries to spread love and whatnot is a good person. “I like being able to do the soft and friendly and nice stuff with Maude,” Cloud told Vulture, but whether he’ll get the chance in season three is anyone’s guess. If he doesn’t like it, then he’ll ask you not to do it. Will all that change after the events of season-two finale “All My Life, My Heart Has Yearned for a Thing I Cannot Name,” in which Fezco’s house is raided and his younger brother Ashtray killed during a SWAT team siege? But Angus Cloud’s Fezco never seems quite as at odds with himself as everyone else, and that surety (plus a burgeoning relationship with Lexi) elevated the character to fan favorite after he outlived the death Euphoria creator, writer, and director Sam Levinson planned for Fez at the end of season one.
Following Ashtray's fate in the 'Euphoria' Season 2 finale, Javon Walton talks about his friendship with Angus Cloud, his Olympic boxing dreams, and future.
He's really loyal to the people he loves," he says, still a little solemn, "and that's really, really important." "With Fez in jail, I feel like he's going to get out no matter what," he says. And Ash is definitely going to find a way back to him because that's the person he cares about most to him. I could be the next Robin." "I don’t go to parties, but there’ll be parties," Walton says. "You know that Fez needs Ash, and Ash needs Fez. They both really rely on each other, so it's going to be really hard for both of them," Walton adds. (More Maddies and less Juleses.)When I ask Walton if Euphoria gets high school right, he says, "Man, I think for some of the hatefulness in the world, it gets some of that right." "He was sitting in that thing for hours every single day, trying to get that thing going," Walton says. ("Because people think that since I play Ashtray, I'm just a mean person in general... "I think it really hurt him," Walton says. Parents. "Teachers can be super nice one day and super mean the next," Walton adds of a problem none of the kiddos in Euphoria ever have to face, due to Euphoria High's apparent shortage of any administrator over the age of 18. "I don't go to parties," the actor, 15, makes sure to tell me, "but there'll be parties.
