Many actors would feel burned out toward the end of a press tour — but not Chloe Cherry, who is refreshingly excited about having to promote her work.
“I just felt like such a professional actor, honestly. I was like, ‘wow, look at me in New York City doing press for my show. I’m booked up and I’m doing all the press,’” she says. “I felt like it was just so deeply validating as an actor.”
The 28-year-old stars as Faye in “Euphoria,” a character that was introduced in the second season and elevated in the third one, airing now. Season Three Faye is the biggest role of Cherry’s yet, having previously worked in the adult entertainment industry, and she’s relishing every moment of the experience.
Cherry was initially scouted to join the show’s second season by a casting company with a cold email.
“They sent me an email and they were like, ‘Hey, we’re casting for Season Two, the director has interest in you auditioning for this role,’” she recalls. “I didn’t believe it. I was like, ‘What? Why would the director of a show want me? I’m not a famous actor.’”
