Never-before-seen footage showed Hollywood star Alec Baldwin rushing film crew on the set of “Rust” before he fatally shot cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during filming in October 2021. Attorneys revealed the video of Baldwin during the criminal trial of the film’s armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, who faces involuntary manslaughter charges for Hutchins death.
According to Good Morning America, outtake footage shows that immediately after director Joel Souza calls “cut,” Baldwin began shouting, “One more! One more! One more! Right away!”
Baldwin repeatedly waves a gun as he speaks.
Gutierrez-Reed is shown slightly off-camera reloading the gun as Baldwin calls for another take prior to the fatal shooting. David Halls, first assistant director, previously testified that he witnessed Gutierrez-Reed hand the gun to Baldwin following a rudimentary safety check where she opened a latch on the gun to reveal several blank rounds.
Moments after the gun was given to Baldwin, Hutchins was fatally shot, and Joel Souza, the director, suffered a gunshot wound to his shoulder.
According to ABC News, Souza, who had been standing just behind Hutchins, testified that the set became “very chaotic,” with a “distressed” Gutierrez-Reed “apologizing” to him. He testified that he didn’t understand what had happened, even arguing with medical workers that it was impossible he had been shot.
