Alec Baldwin to film two Italian movies five months after ‘Rust’ fatal shooting
Hollywood star, Alec Baldwin, is set to make an acting return five months after the death of Halyna Hutchins, the cinematographer who was shot and killed on the set of his film Rust.
The 63-year-old actor, will be arriving in Rome over the weekend to begin filming two Italian films, Kid Santa and Billie’s Magic World, according to Variety.
The films, which are being produced by Alec and his brother Daniel Baldwin, who is also starring in the two movies, will soon begin shooting in Rome.
Gianluca Curti, the chief of Italy’s Minerva Pictures, told Variety Alec will be arriving to Rome on Saturday.
Kid Santa and Billie’s Magic World are both by Italian director Francesco Cinquemani, who previously worked with Alec on the 2015 film Andron. He also directed the 2021 film The Christmas Witch, which starred Alec’s brother William Baldwin.
The two films are being billed as ‘live-action/animation family Christmas comedies,’ according to Variety.
Cuti told the site the Baldwin brothers will be in Rome for four weeks shooting the two movies’ live action scenes.
Curti also said Alec’s participation in the two films preceded the fatal shooting on the set of Rust.
Alec has been dealing with an ongoing wrongful death lawsuit over the on-set shooting death of Hutchins.
The cinematographer, 42, died on October 21 last year when a prop gun used in the film Rust was fired by Alec after he was told it wasn’t loaded, shooting her in the chest.
Director Joel Souza was also injured from Baldwin’s prop gun, though he survived his injuries.
