Alec Baldwin seen on film set for first time since manslaughter charges in Rust shooting were dropped

Alec Baldwin was seen on a movie set Friday for the first time since manslaughter charges against the 66-year-old actor were dropped.

For the crime drama, inspired by the 1970s TV series Colombo, Baldwin arrived on the set wearing grey camp shirt over a red crew-neck T-shirt with dark slacks. 

He was later costumed in a tan trench coat over a blue ʙuттon-down shirt with dark slacks as he sH๏τ scenes at what appeared to be a sidewalk cafe. 

Not much is known about the plot of the project co-written and directed by Alessandro Derviso.

Luisa Rubino of Narcos: Mexico, will also star in the thriller along with Under the Tuscan Sun star Vincent Riotta, according to Positano News.

 In January, Baldwin filed a civil lawsuit, accusing several people in the Santa Fe, New Mexico District Attorney’s office of malicious prosecution and civil rights violations after he was charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of Rust cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

In 2021, Baldwin fired a gun on the set that was supposed to be loaded with blanks, and not real bullets. 

Baldwin claimed he had pulled back the hammer of the revolver, not the trigger, but the gun fired anyway.

Director Joel Souza was also injured in the incident.

In the court filing, The Departed star and his legal team accused prosecutors of trying to ‘scapegoat Baldwin for the acts and omissions of others, regardless of the evidence or the law,’ according to the ᴀssociate Press.

They also accused prosecutors and investigators of targeting the star for professional or political gain.

Baldwin is seeking unspecified punitive damages, compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees and interest. 

The case was dismissed in September 2024 after it was discovered the prosecution had withheld evidence in the case, and did not share information about or access to live ammunition brought in by a retired police officer who said it could be related to the Hutchins killing. 

The ammo was filed under a separate case number and Baldwin’s legal team was not notified. 

After the dismissal of Baldwin’s case, weapons supervisor Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, moved to have her conviction dismissed or to receive a new trial. She remains free as she awaits the court’s decision.
