In a recent chat on Canal+ with her Beetlejuice Beetlejuice costars, Catherine O'Hara, and Winona Ryder, Ortega talked about her last touching meetup with Boyce.

"The last time I saw my friend Cameron Boyce — I'd known him since I was like 11 or 12, and we were supposed to kiss [in an audition] and he knew me, since I was 11 or 12. This is a few years later, 15, 16, came in, we were supposed to be love interests," she told the French outlet

Ortega recalled, "But because he obviously felt weird and he was a bit older, he was like — we both just kinda looked at each other and we were like, 'No, we can't do this.'"

"And it was so sweet because I was uncomfortable and I was having a hard time. .. And then, we wished each other well," he added.
