Boyce played Keithie Feder, son of Sandler’s character Lenny Feder in “Grown Ups” and “Grown Ups 2.” Both movies were directed by original “Happy Gilmore” director Dennis Dugan. Sandler and “ Happy Gilmore 2 ″ director Kyle Newacheck filmed the sequel in New Jersey last fall.

“Adam put a tiny Cameron Boyce (played his son in Grown Ups) tribute in Happy Gilmore 2. Excuse me while I sob,” one user wrote on X, while another one added, “It’s 10am and I’m crying seeing that Adam Sandler put a Cameron Boyce cameo in Happy Gilmore 2 .”

On July 28, Boyce’s mom, Libby, took to Instagram to personally thank Sandler for including her son in the movie. “Thank you (Adam Sandler) for honoring Cam’s legacy in Happy Gilmore 2,” she wrote in the caption alongside a photo of the scene.
