Netflix’s ‘Boots’ Cast From Miles Heizer to Vera Farmiga – Hollywood Life

Boots became one of Netflix’s most popular TV series in 2025. Following its October release, viewers were gripped by its emotional and witty adaptation of Greg Cope White’s 2015 memoir, The Pink Marine. Leading the cast is 13 Reasons Why alum Miles Heizer.

According to Boots‘ tagline, Miles plays a “bullied gay teen [who] joins the Marine Corps with his best friend despite risks. In boot camp they experience profound personal change amid danger, as their platoon confronts both literal and figurative landmines.”
