But as soon as the first episode of the second season aired, it became clear Lexi’s part will take center stage she and Fezco, the drug dealer with an enormous heart played by Angus Cloud, engage in a flirtatious and deeply emotional conversation at a New Year’s Eve party that signals the start of a romantic arc between them.
The first season of Euphoria sees Lexi as a bit player-a goody two-shoes swept up in a world of manipulation, extortion, drugs, sex, crime, and skin-baring fashions. But far and away, her breakout moment came when she landed a role on HBO Max hit Euphoria, which has transformed the way fans spend their Sunday nights (when the second season debuted on January 9, 2.4 million total viewers tuned in, breaking the network’s record for highest total viewership for a digital premiere since its launch in 2020).Īs Lexi Howard, Apatow plays the former best friend of Rue Bennett ( Zendaya), and the younger sister of Cassie Howard ( Sydney Sweeney). She has gone on to star opposite Pete Davidson in The King of Staten Island, made cameos on Girls, and appeared in the Netflix miniseries Hollywood. She’s had a proclivity for writing fiction all her life, but since her first film credit at the age of 10 (she starred in the 2007 comedy Knocked Up, directed by her dad Judd Apatow, and starring her real-life mom Leslie Mann as her mom in the movie), Apatow has mostly been known for her acting. “My teacher was like, ‘What on earth?!,’” Apatow, speaking from her parents’ house in New York City, tells me over the phone on a recent afternoon.
