Bad news for Alec Baldwin… The 65-year-old actor has been in the middle of a legal battle ever since he unknowingly fired a live round that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza on the set of the film Rust back in October 2021.
He vehemently denied pulling the trigger on the weapon. But after an investigation into the tragedy, Alec was charged, along with the film’s armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, with involuntary manslaughter.
