Randall Miller, the director who served a year in jail for a fatal accident on the set of "Midnight Rider," has a new indie film in the works.

Director Randall Miller, who remains on probation for the fatal accident on the set of “Midnight Rider,” has scored $1.5 million in California state tax incentives to make his next independent feature. “As a performer with a disability and winner of the Christopher Reeve Acting Award, I know the challenges and benefits of inclusion in the entertainment industry,” Forrest said in a press release issued Tuesday by the California Film Commission. This tax credit will allow us to create inclusive employment and authentic casting, while also sharing education and awareness that can motivate entertainment companies to incorporate diverse hiring at every level of production.”
