Actor Filmed Euphoria Porn Parody After Being Cast In Actual Show Alongside Zendaya

Only on Euphoria could you get away with shooting a porn parody of your co-stars

When most actors land a breakout role on a major TV series, they might celebrate with a special dinner or maybe splurge on something fancy. But what if that celebration involved filming a porn parody instead?

It may sound like a surefire way to get kicked off a project before even starting, but for one adult film star who turned actress, that bold move didn’t backfire — it actually drew even more attention her way.

Casting a performer from the adult industry in a mainstream television drama might seem out of the ordinary. But with a show like Euphoria — known for its stylized, intense, and often exaggerated portrayal of teenage life — nothing really feels off-limits.

The actor in question is Chloe Cherry, who was invited to audition for the series after showrunner Sam Levinson spotted her on Instagram.

She landed the role of Faye, a character battling addiction who ends up forming a bond with Fezco (played by the late Angus Cloud) and Ashtray (Javon Walton) while she’s hiding from the police.

Once Chloe made her debut, it didn’t take long for fans to start digging into her past in adult entertainment. That’s when people discovered she had starred in a porn parody of a well-known scene between characters Jules (Hunter Schafer) and Rue (Zendaya).

As expected, the internet ran wild with the news. Rumors began circulating that she had been cast in Euphoria because of her role as the porn version of Jules in that parody.

It definitely would have been one of the more unusual ways to get cast on a hit TV show — but that’s not how things really happened.

Chloe cleared things up during an interview with Vulture back in 2022, saying: “It was funny because I made that probably five months after I was cast on the show.”

She shared that the idea for the parody actually came after she had already been cast, as she was watching the show more closely and realized it would be perfect material to spoof.

“I started rewatching and I realised I had already done a lot of adult-movie parodies, and I figured, ‘Oh, that’s the perfect one to do, because it’s a really popular scene’,” she explained during the interview.

“It’s funny the way people are reacting to it, like ‘She was discovered off a porn parody.’ And I’m like, ‘No, no, no, that was literally just something I made for my OnlyFans forever ago, and now everyone’s finding it’.”

Right now, Chloe Cherry is expected to return for Euphoria’s much-anticipated final season, which is currently in the works. Reports from The Hollywood Reporter even say her character will be upgraded to a series regular.

This update is likely to please fans, especially after Chloe previously mentioned she wasn’t sure if she’d be back for season three. She told MailOnline: “I would definitely go back, but they just leave me in the dark, let’s just say that.”
