CNN video(CNN) - The tragic death of Cameron Boyce cast an unexpected cloud over "Descendants 3," the latest edition of the Disney Channel musicals built around the kids of Disney heroes and villains. The show goes on, yielding an at-best serviceable addition to a promising concept that's beginning to feel worn and tired. Mal and her pals (played by Boyce, Sofia Carson and Booboo Stewart) are still trying to mainstream the Villain Kids and bring them over when a crisis strikes. It also continues its youth-oriented network's streak of spinning ratings gold out of live-action musicals, after the "High School Musical" and "Teen Beach Movie" franchises. But setting that aside, whatever magic "Descendants" initially possessed, this third time around the spell is pretty clearly fading.

(CNN) - Actor Cameron Boyce's cause of death was "sudden unexpected death in epilepsy," the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner said Tuesday. It is the office's final determination in the actor's death. This report is in line with the preliminary findings of an autopsy performed earlier this month, which determined the 20-year-old actor died of natural causes. Boyce starred in "Jessie," a Disney Channel show, for four seasons from 2011-2015. He also starred in "Mirrors," "Eagle Eye" with Shia LaBeouf and "Grown Ups" with Adam Sandler.

Carli posted screenshots of the messages to Twitter, writing, "Life with a single dad, asking for advice on date outfits." Tell your dad if he's interested I promise I won't stand him up," said another.

Reducing the risk of deathThe CDC also recommends that people with epilepsy avoid known seizure triggers, avoid drinking too much alcohol and get enough sleep. But doctors shouldn't be content with just reducing the number of seizures, French said. "Fabulous control is no seizures," she said, "and doctors should be seeking no seizures. More research into medications that treat the root cause of epilepsy, and not just the symptomatic seizures, could reduce the number of SUDEP cases, French said. "Every person who takes care of epilepsy patients has seen this happen," French said.

Initial information indicates actor Cameron Boyce died of natural causes, according to the Los Angeles County Coroner's office.
