Cameron Boyce, who starred in the Disney Channel's "Descendants" TV movies and the series "Jessie," has died at age 20, a family spokesperson said in a statement to ABC News late Saturday.
Boyce "passed away in his sleep due to a seizure, which was a result of an ongoing medical condition for which he was being treated," the statement said.
The Los Angeles actor was 9 when he began his film career in the 2008 movie "Mirrors," ABC News reported. He landed roles in "General Hospital: Night Shift" and "Grown Ups" before starring in Disney series such as "Jessie," "Jake and the Never Land Pirates," "Gamer's Guide to Pretty Much Everything" and the "Descendants" TV movies.
