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 Sandler paid tribute to his former on-screen son, the late Cameron Boyce, in his new movie “Happy Gilmore 2” six years after Boyce died. After the comedy sequel released on Netflix Friday, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Boyce, who starred as Sandler’s son in “Grown Ups,” appeared on a TV in the background of one scene.
