It was recorded days before the October 2021 incident, in which cinematographer Hutchins was killed and director Joel Souza was injured during a scene rehearsal when Baldwin discharged a live round from a gun he was holding.

In one segment, Baldwin can be heard saying, “I don’t want to shoot toward you,” emphasizing safety concerns during the preparation for scenes involving firearms.

The footage also captures moments of interaction between Baldwin and crew members, providing insight into the dynamics on set.

These videos are part of a collection, including dozens of others, that were provided to special prosecutors just days before they announced plans to recharge Baldwin with involuntary manslaughter.

The videos are expected to be crucial evidence that could be presented before a New Mexico grand jury.

The exclusive clips shed light on the environment on the “Rust” set and could play a significant role in the ongoing legal proceedings. However, both Alec Baldwin’s legal team and the prosecution have refrained from commenting on the content of the videos.

Baldwin, who has consistently denied pulling the trigger, may face new charges in connection with the shooting. The movie’s armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter charges.

With the possibility of new charges looming, Alec Baldwin’s legal troubles are taking center stage. The incident has already sparked a broader conversation about safety protocols on film sets and the responsibilities of those involved in handling firearms during productions.
