Randall Miller
Randall Miller (born July 24, 1962) is an American film director, producer, and screenwriter whose career spans independent cinema and television, marked by a 2014 on-set fatality during production of the unfinished Gregg Allman biopic Midnight Rider, for which he pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter before having the conviction expunged under Georgia's First Offender Act after completing probation.[1][2] Miller began directing in the 1990s with studio comedies including Class Act (1992), Houseguest (1995) starring Sinbad, and The 6th Man (1997), a basketball fantasy film featuring Marlon Wayans.[3][4] Transitioning to independent projects, he helmed Bottle Shock (2008), a dramatization of the 1976 Judgment of Paris wine tasting that earned critical praise and commercial success, grossing over $23 million against a modest budget.[3][5] His later works include Nobel Son (2007), a thriller with Alan Rickman, and CBGB (2013), chronicling the New York punk rock scene with performances by actors portraying Joey Ramone and Debbie Harry.[3] The Midnight Rider incident occurred on February 20, 2014, when a freight train struck a camera assistant, Sarah Jones, and injured six others on active tracks in Georgia, where the production had filmed without railroad authorization despite warnings.[6] Miller, along with producers, faced charges; he pleaded guilty in 2015 to involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespassing, receiving a two-year sentence of which he served one year in prison followed by 10 years' probation, during which he was barred from directing.[2][6] Upon completing probation in March 2025, a Georgia court granted his petition to expunge the conviction under the First Offender Act, restoring his record as if no guilty plea had occurred.[2][7] The Directors Guild of America expelled him for life in 2022, prompting a 2025 lawsuit alleging violation of union bylaws.[8]Early life and education
Childhood and family background
Randall Miller was born on July 24, 1962, in Pasadena, California, where he spent his childhood.[3] He was raised in an academically oriented household by two physician parents who emphasized intellectual pursuits.[9] His mother, Leona Miller, served as an internist, professor at USC County Medical Center, Chief of Diabetes Services there, and President of the Diabetes Association.[10] [9] His father, Alexander Miller, was a professor of microbiology at UCLA following graduate studies at Caltech in Pasadena.[9] [11] The family's liberal political leanings influenced the home environment.[9]Acting beginnings and formal training
Miller developed an interest in acting during his time at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), where he initially studied biochemistry and played football, following his parents' medical careers.[9] He transferred to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to pursue acting studies, marking his entry into performance arts.[12] Following his acting focus at UCLA, Miller shifted toward filmmaking, completing an undergraduate degree at the University of Southern California (USC) School of Cinematic Arts, encouraged by director Bob Zemeckis.[12] He subsequently earned a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in film from the American Film Institute (AFI) Conservatory.[3] His thesis film at AFI served as a professional launching point, leading to early directing opportunities in television under Ed Zwick.[3] This progression from acting coursework to advanced film training underscored Miller's transition from performer to director.[1]Professional career
Early career as actor and assistant
Miller began his professional entertainment career as an actor in the early 1980s, joining the Screen Actors Guild at age 19 in 1981 to pursue roles that would fund his film education.[3] He appeared in minor television parts, including an ice cream attendant in an episode of the series Highway to Heaven (1984–1989) and the character Michael in an episode of Cheers (1982–1993).[3] His film credits included a small role in the 1987 black comedy Throw Momma from the Train, directed by and starring Danny DeVito.[3] These sparse acting opportunities were supplemented by national television commercials for brands such as Kleenex, Miller Beer, Budweiser, Chili's, Michelob, and Coca-Cola, which provided steady income during his transition to behind-the-camera work.[3] Following his acting stints, Miller shifted toward production roles, leveraging his on-set experience to assist in early directorial capacities after completing film programs at USC and the American Film Institute. His AFI thesis film caught the attention of television producer Ed Zwick, leading to initial directing assignments on episodes of thirtysomething in the late 1980s, marking his entry into assistant-like shadowing and preparatory work before full directorial credits.[3] This phase bridged his performing background with emerging leadership in film and television production, though specific assistant director credits from this period remain undocumented in primary industry records.[3]1990s directorial debut
Miller's feature film directorial debut was Class Act (1992), a comedy produced by Warner Bros. and released on May 22, 1992, starring the hip-hop duo Kid 'n Play (Christopher Reid and Christopher Martin) in an urban adaptation of Mark Twain's The Prince and the Pauper, centered on a high school valedictorian and delinquent who switch identities.[13] The film had a budget of $7.5 million and grossed $13.3 million domestically, achieving modest commercial success primarily among urban audiences during its initial weekends.[13] [14] Later that year, Miller directed The Gun in Betty Lou's Handbag (1992), a Touchstone Pictures comedy released on August 21, 1992, featuring Penelope Ann Miller as a timid librarian accused of murder who asserts her innocence with unexpected assertiveness, co-starring Eric Thal and William Forsythe.[15] In 1995, Miller helmed Houseguest, a Hollywood Pictures comedy released on January 6, 1995, starring Sinbad as a con artist fleeing the mob who impersonates a dentist in a suburban Philadelphia family, with Phil Hartman in a key supporting role; the project stemmed from Miller's script rewrite alongside Jody Savin, leading to his directing assignment based on prior buzz.[16] [3] The film received mixed reviews, holding an 18% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes from limited critic consensus.[17] Miller closed the decade with The 6th Man (1997), a Touchstone Pictures sports fantasy comedy released on March 28, 1997, starring Marlon Wayans and Kadeem Hardison, depicting a deceased college basketball player's ghostly return to aid his brother’s team in pursuing an NCAA championship.[18] It garnered a 17% Rotten Tomatoes score and a 1.5/4 from Roger Ebert, who critiqued its formulaic sports tropes despite the supernatural element.[19] [20] These early features established Miller's focus on comedic genres with identity swaps, mistaken personas, and underdog narratives, often leveraging ensemble casts from television and music backgrounds.[4]2000s independent films
In the mid-2000s, Miller transitioned from studio comedies to independent filmmaking, expressing frustration with the limited roles offered by major studios.[3] He co-wrote and directed Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing and Charm School (2005), an expansion of his 1990 short film of the same name, which he produced using personal funds obtained by mortgaging his home.[21] The dramedy follows a grieving man (Robert Carlyle) who attends a ballroom dancing class after a car accident, uncovering past traumas among the attendees, including stars like John Goodman, Danny DeVito, and Marisa Tomei.[21] The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and received mixed reviews, earning a 22% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 58 critic scores, with praise for its ensemble but criticism for sentimental plotting.[22] Miller continued with Nobel Son (2007), a black comedy he co-wrote and directed, centering on a chemistry professor (Alan Rickman) whose Nobel Prize win coincides with his son's (Bryan Greenberg) kidnapping by a self-proclaimed half-brother demanding the prize money as ransom.[23] Produced independently with a focus on dysfunctional family dynamics and twists, it featured supporting roles by Danny Huston and Eliza Dushku.[24] Critics gave it a 25% Rotten Tomatoes score from 63 reviews, noting its dark humor but faulting uneven pacing and overreliance on contrivances.[24] His most commercially successful independent project of the decade was Bottle Shock (2008), which Miller co-wrote, directed, edited, and produced, depicting the 1976 Judgment of Paris wine tasting where California chardonnays unexpectedly outperformed French wines.[25] Starring Alan Rickman as British wine merchant Steven Spurrier, Chris Pine as a Napa Valley vintner's son, and Bill Pullman as the winemaker, the film highlighted real events involving Chateau Montelena's victory.[5] After failing to secure a distributor at Sundance, Miller self-distributed it to 12 cities, raising funds independently, and it grossed over $4 million domestically against a modest budget.[26] It holds a 48% Rotten Tomatoes rating from 122 reviews, appreciated for its uplifting underdog story but critiqued for formulaic elements typical of indie festival fare.[5]Post-2014 projects
Following his guilty plea in the Midnight Rider incident and subsequent imprisonment from March 2015 to March 2016, Miller faced a ten-year probation period that restricted his involvement in film production, including a prohibition on directing.[27] Despite this, he directed the independent comedy Higher Grounds in July and August 2019, filming in Serbia and Colombia.[28] The film centers on a vegan coffee shop owner competing against traditional coffee establishments in a small town, promoting a pro-vegan message.[27] The production of Higher Grounds prompted allegations of probation violation by Georgia authorities, as Miller's supervising attorney had approved his participation provided he avoided overseeing safety protocols.[27] Prosecutors sought to revoke his probation, leading to a court hearing in June 2020, though the matter was resolved without further incarceration, allowing post-production to proceed.[27] The film was retitled Coffee Wars and released in 2023, becoming available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video, with a reported audience score of 4.5/10 on IMDb based on over 3,000 ratings.[29] It features actors including Kate Nash, Saoirse-Monica Jackson, and Toby Sebastian, and follows a plant-based coffee aficionado striving to sustain her independent shop amid competition.[29] In September 2024, Miller secured a $1.5 million California Film and Television Tax Credit for an untitled independent feature tentatively titled Supercrip.[30] The project depicts a quadriplegic Uber driver whose circumstances transform upon encountering a self-absorbed millennial influencer.[30] Production was initially slated to commence in early 2025 but faced delays amid ongoing legal challenges, including Miller's lawsuit against the Directors Guild of America over his 2022 lifetime expulsion, which has limited industry support for his work.[2][8] As of October 2025, no further details on completion or release have been confirmed.[2]Controversies and legal proceedings
Midnight Rider production and Sarah Jones incident
The independent film Midnight Rider: A Docudrama, directed by Randall Miller, was in production as a biopic chronicling the life of Allman Brothers Band musician Gregg Allman, based on his autobiography My Cross to Bear.[31] Filming commenced in early 2014, with the crew attempting to capture scenes on location, including a pre-dawn sequence depicting a dream involving a bed frame positioned on active railroad tracks.[6] The production operated under a low-budget independent model, with Miller serving as both director and producer alongside partners Jody Savin and Jay Sedrish through their company Film Allman LLC.[32] On February 20, 2014, at approximately 6:45 a.m., the crew set up on the Trestle Bridge spanning the Altamaha River near Doctortown, Georgia, an active CSX Transportation rail line used by freight trains.[33] Without obtaining written permission or notifying the train dispatcher of their presence, the team placed equipment, including a metal bed frame, directly on the tracks to film the scene.[31] An unscheduled southbound CSX freight train approached at around 60 miles per hour; its engineer sounded the horn repeatedly upon sighting the crew, but the group had insufficient time to evacuate fully.[33] Camera assistant Sarah Elizabeth Jones, aged 27, was struck and killed by the train, while eight other crew members sustained injuries ranging from cuts and bruises to fractures requiring surgical intervention, such as metal plates and screws for one hairstylist.[33][6] The accident halted production immediately, with the film ultimately canceled and never completed or released.[31] CSX officials confirmed the crew lacked authorization to film on the property, having only received verbal approval for scouting but proceeding to shoot without formal clearance or safety protocols for rail operations.[34] The incident exposed lapses in risk assessment, as the trestle's single-track configuration and narrow escape routes—exacerbated by fog and darkness—left no margin for error once the train was committed to the span.[33] In the aftermath, Jones's death galvanized industry-wide scrutiny of on-set safety practices, particularly for location shoots involving hazardous environments like railroads, though initial crew accounts varied on the extent of prior warnings about train schedules.[35]Accident details and immediate response
On February 20, 2014, during principal photography of the Gregg Allman biopic Midnight Rider, the crew set up on a CSX single-track trestle spanning the Altamaha River near Doctortown, Georgia, to film a dream sequence featuring a metal hospital bed placed directly on the rails.[31] The production had secured access from the adjacent landowner but lacked permission from CSX Transportation, which had denied filming requests on its tracks at least twice prior.[36][37] Two freight trains had passed earlier under a temporary slow order, after which production staff believed the tracks were clear. A third northbound CSX freight train then approached the trestle at approximately 58 miles per hour, with its crew sounding the horn upon sighting the workers.[6] Shouts of "Train!" prompted an evacuation attempt along the narrow, elevated span, which offered escape only by running to either end or risking a jump into the river below.[38] Second camera assistant Sarah Jones, 27, was struck by the front of the train's lead boxcar, suffering fatal blunt force trauma that included dismemberment of her right arm and leg, multiple skull and rib fractures, and extensive lacerations.[39][40] Eight other crew members sustained injuries, including compound fractures, cuts from flying debris, and impacts from the train's pressure wave and the shattered bed frame.[33][38] In the seconds after the train cleared the trestle, director Randall Miller—having hyperventilated, blacked out, and fallen near the tracks while trying to move the bed—regained awareness and spotted Jones' body roughly six feet from him.[6] Surviving crew, such as hairstylist Joyce Gilliard (who had clung to a girder before being struck by shrapnel in her arm), gathered amid shock and confirmed Jones' death on site.[38] Emergency responders were immediately summoned via 911 calls, with the injured airlifted or transported to hospitals in Savannah and Brunswick; law enforcement secured the scene, and production halted without resuming.[6][31]OSHA investigation and findings
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) initiated an investigation into the February 20, 2014, accident at the Doctortown train trestle in Georgia, where camera assistant Sarah Jones was killed and eight other crew members were injured after being struck by a freight train while filming for Midnight Rider.[33] The probe focused on the production company, Film Allman LLC, which employed approximately 20 workers on set.[33] On August 14, 2014, OSHA issued citations to Film Allman for one willful violation and one serious violation.[33] The willful citation addressed the failure to implement safety measures protecting employees from struck-by hazards posed by moving trains, reflecting an intentional disregard for known safety standards.[33] The serious citation pertained to exposing workers to fall hazards on the unguarded train trestle spanning the Altamaha River, which lacked guardrails, fall protection, or equivalent safeguards.[33] OSHA determined that the employer had not developed an adequate safety plan and failed to obtain permission from the railroad owner, CSX Transportation, to film on active tracks.[33] These lapses directly contributed to the preventable nature of the incident, as no prior technical scout of the remote site had been conducted.[33] Film Allman contested the citations, leading to a hearing before an administrative law judge.[41] On September 15, 2015, Judge Sharon D. Calhoun upheld both violations, affirming OSHA's findings that the hazards were foreseeable and the company's actions exposed workers to imminent danger.[41] The proposed penalty of $74,900 was thereby enforced against Film Allman.[41] OSHA Southeast Regional Administrator Kurt Petermeyer emphasized that "the death of Sarah Jones is particularly disheartening because it was entirely preventable," underscoring the absence of basic precautions on a live railroad.[41]Criminal charges, plea, and sentencing
On March 9, 2015, Randall Miller pleaded guilty to felony involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespass in Wayne County Superior Court, Georgia, in connection with the February 20, 2014, death of camera assistant Sarah Jones during the filming of Midnight Rider.[42][43] Under Georgia law, the involuntary manslaughter charge stemmed from the underlying misdemeanor of criminal trespass, which proximately caused Jones's death when a train struck the crew on active tracks without proper permissions or warnings.[43] As part of the plea agreement, prosecutors dropped involuntary manslaughter and trespass charges against Miller's wife and producer, Jody Savin, as well as related charges against executive producer Jay Sedrish.[42] Miller's guilty plea avoided a jury trial scheduled to begin that week, where he faced potential penalties of up to 10 years per count if convicted.[44] Miller was sentenced on March 10, 2015, to a total of 10 years: 2 years to serve in the Wayne County Detention Center in Jesup, Georgia, followed by 8 years of probation, a $20,000 fine, and a prohibition on working as a director, assistant director, or in any supervisory capacity on film or television sets for 10 years.[44][43] He began serving the jail term immediately but was released early on March 23, 2016, after approximately 13 months, due to a negotiated two-for-one credit for time served.[45]Differing viewpoints on responsibility
Following the February 20, 2014, accident on the Midnight Rider set, where a freight train struck crew equipment on an active railroad trestle in Doctortown, Georgia, resulting in the death of camera assistant Sarah Jones and injuries to six others, attributions of responsibility diverged significantly. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) cited production company Film Allman LLC for one willful violation—failing to implement a safety plan or obtain railroad permission to protect workers from moving trains—and one serious violation for exposing crew to unguarded fall hazards on the trestle, proposing $74,900 in penalties.[33] Director Randall Miller publicly accepted ultimate accountability, stating that while he relied on his team, the decision to film the scene on the tracks "caused this tragedy" and was "ultimately my responsibility."[46] This aligned with his guilty plea to involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespass, for which he received a two-year prison sentence and eight years' probation.[47] Counterarguments emphasized systemic failures within the production rather than singular culpability. Miller's attorney, Ed Garland, contended that Miller assumed blame "on his watch" for a breakdown in protocols involving "miscommunications and assumptions," noting that safety oversight typically falls to contracted specialists, not the director, yet Miller became the "poster child" for industry-wide issues; Garland added that the plea spared Miller's wife, producer Jody Savin, from potential charges.[47] Actor William Hurt, present during setup, recounted expressing safety concerns and receiving assurances from assistant director Hillary Schwartz that the site was secure, after which Schwartz was convicted of misdemeanor charges and sentenced to 10 years' probation and a $5,000 fine.[48] In a 2017 civil wrongful death suit filed by Jones' parents against CSX Transportation, a Chatham County jury apportioned 35% fault to the railroad despite its prior denial of filming permission, citing CSX's failure to adhere to internal policies for detecting and reporting trespassers, as well as a five-second delay in applying train brakes after initial impact.[49] The verdict awarded the family $11.2 million total ($2 million for pain and suffering, over $9 million for economic losses), with CSX liable for $3.9 million after fault adjustment, underscoring shared negligence in operational response even as the production's trespass and lack of safeguards bore primary legal weight in criminal proceedings.[49]Higher Grounds production and probation challenges
In 2019, Randall Miller directed the independent film Higher Grounds, with principal photography occurring in Serbia, the United Kingdom, and Colombia during the summer months.[50][51] The production was a Directors Guild of America (DGA) signatory project, which required Miller's involvement in a directing capacity that directly contravened the terms of his 10-year probation sentence imposed in 2015 following his guilty plea to involuntary manslaughter in the death of camera assistant Sarah Jones.[52][53] Probation conditions explicitly barred him from serving as a director, first assistant director, or unit production manager on any film set.[54][55] The violation came to light in May 2020 when Georgia prosecutors, upon learning of Miller's role in Higher Grounds, moved to revoke his probation, which had approximately six years remaining until March 2025.[56][57] An arrest warrant was issued, prompting Miller's legal team to argue that he had not intentionally breached the terms, asserting that the international shoots and his limited oversight—framed as advisory rather than directorial—did not constitute knowing participation in prohibited activities.[52][58] A hearing was held in Wayne County Superior Court in June 2020, where the state contended the evidence demonstrated a clear infraction regardless of intent.[50] On February 17, 2021, Judge Michael Boggs ruled that Miller had violated his probation conditions by directing Higher Grounds but determined the breach was unintentional, sparing him a return to prison or further incarceration.[59][51][54] The decision hinged on Miller's testimony and evidence that he believed his involvement complied with the probation's spirit, though critics, including Jones's family representatives, viewed it as undermining the sentence's rehabilitative intent.[59] This ruling allowed Miller to continue seeking professional opportunities, though it fueled ongoing scrutiny of his compliance with post-conviction restrictions.[56]Directors Guild of America expulsion and lawsuit
In May 2022, the Directors Guild of America's Western Directors Council unanimously voted to expel Randall Miller from membership for life, determining that his actions constituted conduct "prejudicial to the welfare of the Guild."[8][60] The expulsion followed a disciplinary hearing prompted by Miller's direction of the film Coffee Wars in 2021, which violated the terms of his criminal probation by involving him in a directing role with safety oversight responsibilities.[8][60] This marked an escalation from the DGA's initial response to the 2014 Midnight Rider incident, where Miller had been suspended for one year in 2015 before reinstatement.[8][60] On July 30, 2025, Miller filed a lawsuit against the DGA in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, seeking to overturn the expulsion and reinstate his membership.[8][60] In the complaint, Miller argued that the proceeding violated the guild's constitution, which limits expulsions to cases of felony convictions or violations of guild bylaws, neither of which applied given his probation completion in March 2024 and the subsequent expungement of his involuntary manslaughter conviction.[8] He alleged the process was "predetermined and initiated in bad faith," influenced by external pressure from the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) and guild members advocating for stricter accountability on set safety.[8][60] Miller further claimed DGA leadership manipulated the Ethics Committee's vote, which initially favored him 5-0 against expulsion but was later reversed to 4-1 following off-record interventions, asserting that the expulsion inflicted "catastrophic" damage to his professional reputation without due process.[8][60] The DGA dismissed the lawsuit as a "baseless attempt to blame his union for the reputational damage he suffered" as a result of his own conduct on the Midnight Rider set and subsequent probation violation.[8] Miller maintained in the suit that he had delegated safety duties on Coffee Wars to comply with probation restrictions, a defense that Georgia courts accepted in 2021 when declining to revoke his probation despite the violation claim.[60] The case remains pending as of October 2025, with Miller having directed no projects since Coffee Wars.[8][60]Probation completion and conviction expungement
In March 2025, Randall Miller completed the 10-year probation term that formed the bulk of his sentence following his 2015 no-contest plea to involuntary manslaughter in connection with the death of camera assistant Sarah Jones during the production of Midnight Rider.[2][61] The original sentence, handed down by Wayne County Superior Court Judge Michael Muldrew, included one year in jail (served in 2015) and the probation period, during which Miller was prohibited from directing films or serving in leadership roles on sets.[2] Despite facing probation violation hearings in 2020 and 2021—stemming from his involvement in directing the low-budget film Higher Grounds in apparent breach of the no-directing condition—the court, under Judge Anthony Harrison, declined to revoke probation or impose further incarceration, allowing Miller to fulfill the remaining term without additional penalties.[50][54] Upon successful completion on or around March 14, 2025, a Georgia court issued an order exonerating Miller under the state's First Offender Act, a provision applicable to eligible first-time offenders.[2][61] The First Offender Act permits the discharge and expungement of convictions upon probation completion without revocation, effectively removing the record from public view and treating the plea as if it never occurred for most employment and licensing purposes, though it does not alter civil liabilities or historical facts of the case.[2][61] This process cleared Miller's criminal record, enabling potential reinstatement in professional guilds and resumption of directing work, as evidenced by his subsequent pursuit of projects like Supercrip.[2] Sarah Jones's father, Richard Jones, acknowledged awareness of the legal eligibility for such exoneration but emphasized ongoing concerns regarding set safety protocols in the industry.[2]Personal life
Marriage and family
Randall Miller married film producer Jody Savin on March 13, 1999, in a ceremony officiated in New York.[62] Savin, with whom Miller has collaborated on multiple screenplays and productions including Bottle Shock (2008), shares professional credits as a co-writer and producer on several of his projects. The couple has two children, born circa 2001 and 2003.[43] During Miller's 2015 legal proceedings related to the Midnight Rider incident, his attorney emphasized the director's plea decision was influenced by a desire to avoid lengthy incarceration that would separate him from his family, including his wife and young children.[43] The family resides in Pasadena, California, near Miller's childhood hometown.[44]Notable relatives and influences
Miller is the cousin of actress Rhea Perlman, known for her role as Carla Tortelli on the television series Cheers.[63] His early academic pursuits in biochemistry at the University of California, Davis, were shaped by his parents' medical professions; his father, Alexander Miller, served as a professor of microbiology at UCLA, while his mother, Leona Miller, was an internist, professor at USC County Medical Center, and president of the Diabetes Association.[3] Miller has been married to producer and screenwriter Jody Savin since 1999; the couple frequently collaborated on projects, including co-writing and producing films such as Bottle Shock (2008).[3] He has a sister, Lori Middlehurst, who publicly advocated for his early release from incarceration following the 2014 Midnight Rider incident.[64] No prominent professional influences beyond his familial medical background and transition from acting to directing—beginning with television episodes like those of thirtysomething—are widely documented in his career trajectory.[3]Filmography
