Miller had a small part as the nephew of Tom Selleck’s character in the 1992 movie “Folks.” He played “Salami Sam” in the 1995 film “Heavyweights,” which followed the hijinks at a weight loss camp for boys.

“When we made ‘Heavyweights,’ being around Joe Miller was pure joy,” Judd Apatow, a writer and producer of the film, told the New York Post in a statement.

“We could not have loved spending time with him more. He made everyone around him so happy. What a terrible loss.” Co-star Aaron Schwartz also remembered Miller in an Instagram post.
