ISLAMABAD, JULY 29 (ONLINE): Cameron Boyce\u2018s mother is expressing her appreciation for Adam Sandler for the subtle tribute he included in Happy Gilmore 2 for the late actor.<\/p>\n
Boyce, who died in 2019 at age 20, appears at the beginning of the sequel, after Sandler\u2019s character, Happy Gilmore, approaches a golfing check-in booth. The scene then cuts to two people sitting behind the counter, watching a show on a small TV. That\u2019s when viewers see a quick glimpse of Boyce on the television screen, in what appears to be an episode from his Disney Channel show Jessie, where he played Luke Ross from 2011 to 2015.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cAdam and Cameron talked quite a bit in the days leading up to his death,\u201d Libby Boyce wrote on Instagram Sunday. \u201cCameron was supposed to be in [Hubie Halloween] and they were strategizing. They had a bond I think related to being authentic, funny and just keeping it real. Adam always finds a way to keep Cams memory alive which warms our heart.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a second post on Monday, she shared a screenshot from the new movie and wrote in the caption, \u201cThank you @adamsandler for honoring Cam\u2019s legacy in Happy Gilmore 2.\u201d<\/p>\n
