Baldwin, 65, was charged in January with two counts of involuntary manslaughter in connection with Hutchins' death and the injury of "Rust" director Joel Souza, who was also shot. The news arrived on the same day that Baldwin and other cast members resumed filming the movie in Montana, according to the production company. Baldwin settled a lawsuit in October with the cinematographer's husband, Matt Hutchins, in a deal that made Hutchins an executive producer on the movie.
Baldwin had denied responsibility, arguing that Gutierrez-Reed failed to check the rounds and that Halls incorrectly told him the revolver was a "cold gun," an industry term meaning it was either unloaded or contained dummy rounds.
