The 20-year-old actor died in his sleep on Saturday.
Hollywood is mourning the death of Disney Channel star Cameron Boyce.
The 20-year-old actor died in his sleep on Saturday after suffering a seizure, his family confirmed in a statement to ET on Sunday.
"It is with a profoundly heavy heart that we report that this morning we lost Cameron. He passed away in his sleep due to a seizure which was a result of an ongoing medical condition for which he was being treated," Boyce's family said. "The world is now undoubtedly without one of its brightest lights, but his spirit will live on through the kindness and compassion of all who knew and loved him. We are utterly heartbroken and ask for privacy during this immensely difficult time as we grieve the loss of our precious son and brother."
Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger tweeted about Boyce's death early Sunday morning. "The Walt Disney Company mourns the loss of #CameronBoyce, who was a friend to so many of us, and filled with so much talent, heart and life, and far too young to die. Our prayers go out to his family and his friends," he wrote.
Adam Sandler, who played Boyce's father in Grown Ups and Grown Ups 2, shared a heartbreaking post in honor of Boyce soon after.
"Too young. Too sweet. Too funny. Just the nicest, more talented, and most decent kid around. Loved that kid. Cared so much about his family. Cared so much about the world. Thank you, Cameron, for all you gave us. So much more was on the way. All our hearts are broken. Thinking of your amazing family and sending our deepest condolences," he tweeted.
Boyce's Jessie co-stars, Skai Jackson and Charles Esten, also reacted to his shocking death on Twitter, while other stars like Zendaya offered their condolences.
Boyce's Descendants 3 is set to premiere on Disney Channel next month. He was also filming a pilot called Mrs. Fletcher, starring Kathryn Hahn.
