Will Alec Baldwin’s ‘Rust’ Get A U.S Release?


We understand a US deal for the film has been in the works and the project was quietly on sale at last year's AFM.

We’ve been told by backers that Hutchins’ husband and son gained a financial stake in the movie as part of a settlement reached with Rust ‘s producers. We understand territory deals include Latin America, Australia, and parts of Eastern and Western Europe, though specific companies haven’t been revealed in most markets. Some of the legal cloud over Rust was lifted after the dismissal of Baldwin’s involuntary manslaughter case in September but the actor-producer is now filing his own lawsuit against special prosecutor Kari Morrissey and Santa Fe District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies for malicious prosecution and civil rights violations, keeping the movie in the headlines.
