“Euphoria” producer’s cause of death revealed

Nearly a month after the sensitive death of Kevin Turen, producer of the hit HBO series “Euphoria,” the details that led to his dramatic exit have finally come to light.

According to TMZ, the 44-year-old director died following a heart attack while driving his Tesla on a California highway with his 10-year-old son. As previously reported, the boy managed to take control of the car and stopped it on the sidewalk to call 911. Kevin was later taken to hospital, where it was shortly discovered that he no longer had any signs of life.

The outlet also notes that the official cause of death was acute cardiac dysfunction and hypertrophic heart disease, according to the coroner. Let us recall that since November the presence of drugs and alcohol has been ruled out as provoking factors.

Likewise, the event occurred just a few months after the loss of actor Angus Cloud, a member of the cast of Euphoria. The series and its team have experienced a period of grief marked by these unexpected tragedies.

Originally from Manhattan, Turen knew from a young age that he wanted to pursue the world of entertainment after choosing to study film at Columbia University.

In 2005, he made his debut as a producer of the film “Wassup Rockers”, a film by the famous director Larry Clark.

Throughout his career, Turen has produced films starring renowned actors, such as Arbitrage, starring Richard Gere, and All Is Lost, starring Robert Redford.

He recently produced The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, which stars Nicolas Cage and Pedro Pascal.

Jay Penske, managing director of PMC, assured that although the world of entertainment was a great passion for his friend, in reality his family always took precedence over everything that happened in his life.

“Despite his many successes in Hollywood, Kevin’s greatest passion was his family and friends. “He was very proud of his children, our collective hearts break for them and we all feel a deep sense of loss,” he wrote at the time.
