Not much else is known about Musser’s passing, though TMZ learned that the All My Children and Desperate Housewives actor passed away at his home in Del Mar, California. His most memorable turn came in the Sandler-led comedy Grown Ups. The scene featuring Mussner as “Water Park Stud” has been revisited millions of times online since the movie’s release in 2010.
“I loved this guy,” Sandler wrote in tribute to Musser. “Cannot believe he is gone. Such a wonderful, funny good man. Thinking of Alec Musser and his family and sending all my love. A true great sweetheart of a person.”
Salma Hayek, another Grown Ups star, also spoke kindly of Musser after hearing the news. “He was so kind professional and absolutely hillarious,” she wrote. “His early departure breaks my heart. I feel so blessed that I got to meet him. My sincere condolences to his family and loved ones for this great loss.”
