Alec Baldwin on Trial: Is the Actor to Blame for a Fatal Shooting on Set?
Alec Baldwin goes on trial in Santa Fe, where a jury will have to decide if he was at fault in a fatal shooting or if he was failed by others.
His volatile behavior on the set of “The Edge” — he refused to shave his beard — left such an impression on producer Art Linson that he made a movie about it, “What Just Happened,” with Bruce Willis caricaturing Baldwin as a tantrum-throwing star. While working on the Western film “ Rust ” in 2021, prosecutors allege Baldwin recklessly pointed a Colt .45 at cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and pulled the trigger, causing her death. The case may come down to which version of Baldwin the jury finds more credible: the hotheaded egomaniac who thinks the rules don’t apply to him or the consummate professional who was failed by those around him.
