Landon included a shot of his young cast behind the scenes. One of Morgan's co-stars on the film, Logan Miller, shared a tribute to Instagram. "The world has lost a great human," he began.
Describing the late actor as "my dear friend," Miller gushed, "Joey was kind, giving, hilarious, extremely talented and full of love and life. We had nothing but fun together.

Morgan's "Flower" co-star Zoey Deutch left a heart emoji on Miller's post. She shared her own Instagram tribute too, writing, "Rest in peace [Joey] ... a deeply kind, talented, special person.
