Back in 2014, the production of Midnight Rider failed to secure permits to film on a train track in Savannah, GA. They trespassed and filmed on the tracks anyway then a train came and camera assistant Sara Jones was killed. This caused a major uproar from IATSE and the Guilds and spawned the Safety for Sarah movement.

Most people assumed he would never direct again or even if he tried nobody would work with him. Not that it has kept people from working with Victor Salva or Roman Polanski.

A couple days ago articles started coming out that he and his wife who was also charged in the death filmed their latest movie in Serbia and Colombia. Also, it turns out his company he formed to produce the movie(an LLC is formed for each new production) is a signatory to The Directors Guild of America. I was under the impression that he was expelled from the Guild. Turns out he was not. Also a DGA 1st AD also worked on the production as 1st AD and producer in charge of safety.

I am following along on the DGA member Facebook page and my fellow members are shocked. The 1st AD who did the movie is defending his actions there but the other members aren't really happy he worked with Miller.

Anyway thought this was a bit of industry drama y'all might find interesting.
