10 Insta-Reasons We Love Out Actor Miles Heizer

Shawn Laib READ TIME: 11 MIN.

Miles Heizer is a budding LGBTQ+ film and television star who has already appeared in a variety of our favorite queer stories in the last decade on both the big and small screen. While he's probably most known for portraying Alex Standall in the Netflix series "13 Reasons Why," Heizer also played a part in "Parenthood" and "Love, Simon."

With a good track record intact, Heizer will be expanding his portfolio with the recently announced "The Corp" on Netflix. Not much is known about the drama yet, but Heizer will be playing a character who goes into the military in response to his revelation that he's gay. Sexuality and the armed forces have often been contradictory concepts in the United States, so there is a lot to explore in this story and we can't wait to see how it turns out! In the meantime, we curated some of Heizer's best Instagram posts so you can learn a little more about him.


Miles Heizer has some of the most charming, youthful looking vibes in the business right now. When you add in multiple furry friends to the mix, you have a perfect alchemy of adorable on Instagram. There are several pet photos on Heizer's socials, but we went with this pic because it's one of the only ones with both of his dogs in the picture. Not to mention there's nothing cuter than a dog sleeping, right? Heizer serves as a nice pillow for his pups here, and we enjoy taking it all in!


This photo of Heizer from summer 2022 shows the actor crouching on a boulder in the middle of the sunshine, showing off his red swim trunks and beautiful blue eyes. Fans speculated in the comments section whether he looked more like Spider-Man or Gollum from "The Lord of the Rings," but only Heizer knows who he was trying to emulate here! Either way, he looks handsome no matter what pose he's attempting.


Miles Heizer captions this sleepy image of himself as being a representation of his toxic beard phase, and we think it looks great on him! Beyond the first photo that shows off some armpit action for those who have a thing for that (no judgements here!), there's also images of Heizer glowing in the car, with one of his aforementioned dogs, and with actress Mae Whitman at lunch. Looks like it was a very productive and photogenic day for Heizer in this set of photos!


Heizer always gives off great summer vibes, and clearly the magazine Hero agreed with us back when this was taken in June of 2018 for their summer edition. Hero has had a history of queer actors and those associated with the LGBTQ+ being on the cover, including "Love, Victor'' star Michael Cimino back in 2021.


This most recent photo of Heizer shows off how youthful and vibrant the actor is no matter how much older he's gotten since his arrival in Hollywood. Many fans noticed in the comments section that it feels like Heizer never ages, and this is something that probably helps Heizer get roles playing young characters like in "13 Reasons Why" and eventually "The Corp." Even if Heizer does start to show his age, his acting ability will be what helps him to remain a fan favorite!
