Authorities say actor Alec Baldwin fired a prop gun on a movie set and killed the cinematographer. The director of the Western being filmed was wounded. Authorities are investigating.

“The details are unclear at this moment, but we are working to learn more, and we support a full investigation into this tragic event,” International Cinematographers Guild president John Lindley and executive director Rebecca Rhine said in a statement.

“This investigation remains open and active,” Rios said in a statement. “No charges have been filed in regard to this incident. Witnesses continue to be interviewed by detectives.” “I’m so sad about losing Halyna. And so infuriated that this could happen on a set,” said “Archenemy” director Adam Egypt Mortimer on Twitter. “She was a brilliant talent who was absolutely committed to art and to film.”

Baldwin teamed up as a producer previously with Souza on the 2019 film, “Crown Vic,” which starred Thomas Jane as a veteran Los Angeles police officer on a manhunt for two violent bank robbers. Souza’s first credited film, 2010’s “Hanna’s Gold,” was a treasure hunt adventure featuring Luke Perry.

So tragic & sad 💔💔💔

Baldwin has spent years fear mongering about conservatives and he's the one that ends up killing someone. Every person firing a gun should be responsible for what's loaded in it. It's very easy to check.

Hahahaha🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Probably revenge on Baldwin for mocking Trump. Seriously, investigate the gun prop guy.

Was Baldwin set up because he played trump on SNL & exposed what a joke trump is

“Authorities say a prop gun misfired and the “fake billet” killed the actress.”

That’s sad, also predictable given how companies prioritize profit over safety. It’s not the first time it’s happened, and it won’t be the last. We only hear about it when someone dies, film crews are nightmares, PAs get injured doing volunteer work for massive corporations

Too many people who know zip about the subject/process asking idiotic questions/making moronic statements better suited to TMZ or Fox and friends. Best to wait for the full investigation—and appear less ignorant until then.

Prayers for the Woman’s Family.

He accidentally discharged a gun and hit two people.. This is B,S. he has always been nuts and this proves it .. Put him in Jail !!!!!!

why was he firing a gun, prop or otherwise, at the cinematographer?

It was one bullet that went through the female cinematography and hit the director so says this site.

Why isnt he in custody now? Special laws for the rich and famous?

this is what happens when people bitch about fake gunshots and cgi, they resort to the classic prop guns that shoot blanks which can still be deadly.

JBrunoNBCBoston 🙏

What a horrible summary. Wait for the full investigation. DoBetter

First prop guns do not kill , second why was the gun aimed at people who not actors?.The mystery needs a solution.

What is the point of having a prop gun if it can kill?

Why would he be aiming and firing at a cinematographer and director tho?

It might be time to stop glamorizing guns in movies altogether... this just isn't necessary anymore.

Well now he knows

Idiot

Why do prop guns kill people?
