Following his starring role in Shiloh, Heron continued to land smaller film and television projects like We Were Soldiers, Boston Public and 11:14.
Months before his death, Heron gave an interview detailing his years-long history with addiction. "I started doing drugs when I was about 12, typical smoking weed at first and drinking and what not. It quickly progressed," he said, "and I lost everything. I lost my career, I lost all of my money, I lost possessions, and most importantly, I lost myself. I felt like I lost my soul."
