Tyler Sanders, who starred in the Amazon series Just Add Magic: Mystery City and starred in 9-1-1: Lone Star, Fear the Walking Dead and The Rookie, died at his Los Angeles home. He was 18 years old.
His agent Pedro Tapia confirmed the news but did not give details. He added that the death is under investigation. “Tyler was a talented actor with a bright future,” Tapia said. “He comes from a wonderful family, and we ask that his privacy be respected at this time.”
Sanders’ cause of death is unknown and is currently being investigated, meaning the medical examiner is “requesting further investigation into the death, including additional studies. Once the evidence/studies come in, the medical examiner evaluates the case again and makes a determination of the cause of death.”
He started acting when he was 10 years old and even earned an Emmy nomination for his role as Leo on the show “Just Add Magic: Mystery City” on Amazon Prime. He also participated in short films and in the series El Novato.
Tyler Sanders had a hand in several short films and played young Jake Otto in an episode of AMC’s Fear the Walking Dead before appearing as Leo on Amazon’s Just Add Magic in 2019. That led to a starring role in the 2020 spinoff series Just Add Magic: Mystery City, which centred on half-siblings Leo (Sanders) and Zoe (Jolie Hoang-Rappaport) and their neighbour Ish (Jenna Qureshi).
Sanders’ Leo becomes the new protector of the magical cookbook, unravelling a century-old mystery that leads them on a historic adventure through the city streets in a race to find a secret recipe.
