The trailer has dropped for Angus Cloud’s first posthumous movie, where he plays a drug dealer in Your Lucky Day.

The late actor has three movies in the pipeline, with the first being slated for a November 10 release.

In the film, Cloud plays drug dealer Sterling, who takes a small convenience store hostage after he witnesses a customer win a $156 million lottery ticket.

The thriller will mark the directorial debut of Daniel Brown, who revealed to Entertainment Weekly that he first took note of Cloud when his wife had binge-watched Euphoria and fell in love with his character Fezco.

To Brown’s shock, the late 25-year-old actor was one of the first to express interest in the film after reading his script.

However, the filmmaker was initially hesitant to cast Cloud, given how similar Sterling and Fezco were.

But once he watched a couple of Cloud’s interviews, he knew he found his leading man.

"I had written the character based on people I had grown up with: guys who sold drugs and would start fights with frat boys or their stepdads, but who were also super protective and loyal to their friends," Brown told the publication.

"[Cloud's] stories and outlook were so right on for the character, I just had to go for it."

Jessica Garza, who plays one of the hostages in the film, also shared how one of her favorite scenes was a tender moment between her character, Ana Marlene, and Sterling, calling Cloud a ‘beam of light’.

"He was not only an incredible actor, but he was an even better human," she said.

"He was kind and humble and thoughtful and so deeply sincere. I am so grateful and honored I had the chance to share a screen with him and [get] to know him.”

In July, Cloud passed away from an accidental overdose, a coroner confirmed.

Shortly after his death, his family issued a statement to TMZ: "It is with the heaviest heart that we had to say goodbye to an incredible human today. As an artist, a friend, a brother and a son, Angus was special to all of us in so many ways.”

Many of the actor’s colleagues also shared tributes, including his co-star Zendaya, who wrote in part: “I’m so grateful I got the chance to know him in this life, to call him a brother, to see his warm kind eyes and bright smile, or hear his infectious cackle of a laugh (I’m smiling now just thinking of it).”
