Euphoria producer Kevin Turen’s ‘died from heart failure’ while at the wheel of his Tesla aged 44, his cause of death reveals
Kevin Turen reportedly died from heart failure while driving his Tesla, his cause of death has revealed.
Kevin, 44, known for his work on Euphoria and The Idol, died suddenly on November 12 while driving on a California freeway, TMZ previously reported.
He was driving his 10-year-old son when he had a medical emergency and his child had to steer the car – which was on autopilot – to the side of the freeway before dialling 911.
It has now been reported by TMZ that Kevin tragically died at the wheel of the vehicle as a result of multiple heart issues.
The medical examiner reportedly listed his official cause of death as acute cardiac dysfunction and hypertrophic heart disease, while coronary artery disease was also added as another factor.

Kevin is survived by his wife of 11 years Evelina and their two sons, Jack and James.
It was previously reported that Kevin suffered a medical emergency while driving his Tesla – forcing his 10-year-old son to take the wheel and steer them to safety.
Kevin’s father Edward and his friend Michael Heller told TMZ that he was driving his little boy home from a tennis tournament at the time.
They explained how Kevin’s car was on autopilot and his son had to steer the car over to the side of the freeway before dialling 911.
Edward confirmed his son’s death in a statement released to Deadline, saying: ‘Kevin was so incredibly special, this world is going to be less without him.’
Jay Penske, CEO of PMC and a close personal friend of Kevin, also released a statement.
‘Despite his many achievements in Hollywood, Kevin’s greatest passion was his family and friends,’ his statement began.
‘He was so proud of his children. He and his wife, Evelina, were resolved that their children grow up with great values and ensured they make a difference in the broader world,’ he added.

‘Our collective heart breaks for them, and we all feel such a profound sense of loss,’ he continued.
‘We will miss Kevin so much, and this town lost one of its brightest rising stars today,’ he concluded.
Kevin’ was born in Manhattan and studied cinema at Columbia University before starting his career.
He made his producing debut on the 2005 indie film Wassup Rockers from director Larry Clark.
He would go on to produce a number of feature films including Operation Endgame, which was written by Euphoria creator Sam Levinson.
His other feature producer credits include Arbitrage starring Richard Gere, All Is Lost starring Robert Redford, and two more Levinson movies, Assassination Nation and Malcolm & Marie.
He most recently produced the Nicolas Cage and Pedro Pascal film The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, Mia Goth’s X and Pearl and HBO’s Euphoria and The Idol.
Tributes have poured in from across Hollywood following news of Turen’s passing, with rapper Kid Cudi tweeting that the producer was ‘a great man and a homie.’
‘We had a lot we were gonna do together. Prayin for his family and everyone else that knew him. We’ll miss u brother,’ he said.
British producer Cassian Elwes said the producer was ‘a good friend and true indie film maker’, adding: ‘I’m so sad. Hold your love (sic) ones close. Life is precious and fleeting.’

He also tweeted: ‘What people don’t realize is actually Hollywood is a small town. Everyone eventually meets everyone. The indie film circuit of people who consistently make indie films is even smaller.
‘We all know each other really well because we are kindred spirits. We lost a very important person in our circle tonight.’
Oscar nominated producer Lynette Taylor said his death was ‘utterly tragic’ and ‘such a horrific loss.’
Kirsten Sage Coleman, a makeup artist who worked on both Euphoria and The Idol, took to her Instagram story and said, ‘Very said to hear this. Sending all of the love to the ones who need it’
In a tribute shared by one of Turen’s friends, Kirsten Smith, the producer was described as having ‘brought excitement and energy and warmth and laughter into every encounter.’
‘He knew more about movies than anyone I’ve ever met, but he wasn’t a know-it-all —he was a share-it-all. He loved sharing movies and great meals and his friends with each other,’ she said.
‘He is survived by his lifetime love, Evelina, and their two sons, and he leaves a lasting legacy of beautiful ground-breaking cinema that he fought to make…and a swath of friends, all of whom are devastated.
‘We love you, Kevin. And we can’t grapple with losing you because you were always there for all of us, bright-eyed and with that huge wonderful smile. I love you, Kevin.’
Kevin was best known as one of the producers on HBO’s Euphoria, starring Zendaya
Kevin was also a producer on 2023 show The Idol, where he worked with musician and actor The Weeknd and Lily Rose Depp

Kevin was said to have had a photographic memory and could remember every frame of film he’d ever watched.
Kevin’s wife Evelina is best known for her starring roles in films like That Awkward Moment, The Box and Arbitrage.
Kevin’s death is sadly the second tragedy to strike HBO’s Euphoria this year, following the tragic passing of star Angus Cloud.
The actor, who played loveable drug dealer Fezco in the beloved series, passed away at just 25 years of age due to an accidental overdose involving many different drugs.
Cloud had recently just come back from Ireland where he had to bury his father, with the death taking a hard toll on the actor.

Hollywood?
So he wrote garbage and will be missed by the liberals.
Big deal……………… and he created the “loveable drugdealer” character?
Was he poked?
[The only question I had after reading the headline]
Yes……nigger-poked.
So I guess that’s with niggercock?
It’s the hyphen that’s got me confused.
(Come on, zappa, that’s funny 😀 )
Given he was driving a Tesla, the answer is undoubtedly yes, multiple times
Also, how do you get dead guy poop out of a Tesla seat cushion? (asking for a friend)
At least he wss vaxxinated or it could have been worse.
EV’s are dangerous to you health?
“Euphoria”………….is this some kind of Satanic nigger band ?
It’s a TV show. Go read the plot synopsis of Euphoria episodes at Wikipedia. It’s absolute degenerate trash and apparently young people watch it in droves.
“I have some bad news and good news Mrs Turin.
Your husband died. But his condition has stabilized.”
Never heard of the man or any of the shit he worked on, but i still have a real sense of sadness for that kid. I saw my dad collapse once when i was about 11. He was picking me up from church and got rear ended by some asshole at about 25mph. Dad got out of the car, took two steps and dropped. There was a phone booth at yhe gas station across the street. Im not sure how i got there in less than a second, but im sure i did. Long story short- dad was, and is ok except hes jabbed and boosted despite my pleading.
Just leave the poor guy alone. Your worrisome opinions might kill him.
This is the part to pay attention to
Not the first time and probably many more vaxxidents to come.
So the car can steer around a child that runs out in the street chasing a ball but can not tell if you suddenly drop dead behind the wheel.
Maybe Elon should have a dead man driving switch or something.
It’s currently illegal to leave them in auto-drive because they aren’t that smart. Acquaintance got a ticket when she left her Tesla in auto-drive and it stayed in the left lane after passing.
Good thing there was no car to pass in the left lane.
Really…..
Not that simple. You have to choose the program– to either miss the kid and, consequently, kill yourself by going over the centre-line into the cement truck or hit the dumb kid and survive yourself. Legal and insurance repercussions, too.
That would really put someone in a quandary.
Since life often imitates art:
Why run so much? I would just leave it on the bad fat girls’ table and leave whistling really quickly.
I forgot how funny that show could be, sometimes. Those nuns!
Hahahahahaha
Euphoria is pure trash.
The New Yorker pointed out that “There are dead-eyed, graphic sex scenes, non-consensual sex tapes, beatings, underage camming, and chronic male nudity.”
A review in the Washington Post said Euphoria “is banal and derivative and worse than that: It’s a series designed to profit off misplaced panic about teenagers.”
So………..it is a Satanic nigger band.
World Tour spring 2024!
LIVE NATION PRESENTS
Karen and the Niggercocks! / with special guest / Black Lives Splatter!
The new Godzilla movie makes it clear that Godzilla is allegory for black lives mattering.
Euphoria is the pedophilic camel’s nose poking under the tent. Hollywood inches society slowly towards accepting child sex with shows like this. God took Turen out of the picture.
Thanks for the clarity !
Clearly this is a Satanic nigger-faggot/pedophile outfit and should be tracked down and trenched.
Sheesh! It sounds like it fits in so well with the New Yorker and WP’s efforts to promote transgenderism and ‘back door’ sex ‘education’ in the school systems.
They are showing it to horrified kindergartners in Los Angeles.
/satire
Well that was 10 minutes wasted reading this slop. Besides Pedowood & it’s celebrity fans, WGAS?
Sorry………scanned the piece………….dont see anything boo-hoo-able.
no one needs to fear who has God. Jesus died for our sins. Wisdom comes from fearing God. All who have the Son have the Father, because they are God, makers of heaven and earth. The time is at hand even if it takes another 3000 years, because God is merciful and wants to gather people to Him before this world ends and the new earth and the new heaven begin.
Climate hysteria is explicitly satanic.
Hmmm….Maybe god is merciful where he lives but to continue watching what is going on with his “creation” and not doing anything about it? 3,000 more years of this?
I would file that under sadistic.
Yep. Maybe the Muslims have got it right with their creepy god.
Blow drying your hair is dangerous…lol!
See democrats….all this “Died suddenly” shit is redneck noise.
So do be a smarty……..at the Tubberware party…………boost all you can…………in this niggerhole land.
8 billion people in the world, instant media–you’re gonna hear about a lot of people dying, suddenly or slowly. It’s inevitable. Do the math.
Auntie is thinking maybe it was her “conditioner”? Genetic modification therapy creme rinse.
Aunt. A bit of a sarcastic comment, but I loved it. Keep it up and you will pass the year in school.
Charging your cell phone, watching TV, doing a jumble in the newspaper?
Are now all causes of heart attacks.
Covid 19 shot probable
Dear HSF, not to be too critical, but I think you may have forgotten to mention that Kevin died suddenly while driving his Tesla on autopilot and his 10 year old son had to steer the car off the road and dial 911. /s
Heh. I also read somewhere that the car was on autopilot when Turen died, and his son, maybe 10 years old, had to stop the car and call 911.
Thats a long article to say he died in his car while on autopilot. Never mentioned he was vaxxed, probably 3x
The JAB is dropping them one at a time.
This is a really uptight niggerlover thread.
All the democrats seem to have corncobs up their buttholes.
The earth became less heavy with an underground deposit of Pervy Wood eating grass by the roots.
Pedovores’ lives don’t matter.
Shocked that he was even married. Looks like he’s sucked more cock than a vacuum in a chicken coop.
Why is this one special out of so many died suddenly people? Is it because his kiddo was with? Not asking for a friend.
