Storm Reid Talks About Drake's Commitment To 'Euphoria': 'He’s Really Involved' [Watch]
Storm Reid has revealed that rapper Drake, who serves as an executive producer on the HBO Max series "Euphoria," has been really involved in the making of the show.
Reid, while speaking on "The Kelly Clarkson Show," said: "He’s really involved. We were doing table reads for season 2 a couple of months back, and of course, like you’re not expecting Drake to be at your table read."
The video of the conversation was shared on YouTube on Tuesday.
The 18-year-old actress told the host, Kelly Clarkson, the 35-year-old rapper attended one of the table reads, which went on for three hours, with his business partner Future the Prince.
"I pull up to the lot and he’s there with all of his homies," she said. "It’s him and then his business partner, Future the Prince, and they literally sat through, I think it was a three hour table read 'cause we went through a couple of episodes."
Reid praised Drake for being a brilliant businessman and a creative person, while adding how stunned she was learning about his involvement in the project.
"He was so involved and so in tune and you don’t really expect that from a person. I know that he’s a brilliant businessman and creative. But I mean he’s Drake, he doesn’t really have to pay attention in the table read and he did," she added. "He did come from acting, so it makes sense."
Reid also shared Drake wasn't there just for the sake of it as he was really paying attention to the script and turning the pages as they were moving forward with the story.
"You could tell he was feeling all the emotion," Reid said.
"Euphoria" tells the story of a group of teenage students, who struggle with finances, social media, drugs and love. The star-studded series also features Zendaya, Eric Dane, Hunter Schafer, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, Angus Cloud and Alexa Demie.
The first episode of "Euphoria" season 2 has been dropped Sunday on HBO Max. The first season of the series was dropped in August 2019.
Besides "Euphoria," Reid will feature in movies like "Killing Winston Jones," "One Way," "Searching 2" and "Darby Harper Wants You to Know."
