Alec Baldwin faces new lawsuit from Halyna Hutchins' family over fatal "Rust" shooting

Actor and producer Alec Baldwin is facing a new lawsuit over the shooting on the set of the movie "Rust" in 2021 that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

Attorney Gloria Allred announced on Thursday the filing of a new suit against Baldwin and "Rust" on behalf of Hutchins' sister and parents. Additional details about the lawsuit were not immediately available. Allred is scheduled to hold a press conference at 2:30 p.m. Eastern. 

Baldwin was holding a Colt gun during a rehearsal for the film in New Mexico when it discharged, killing 42-year-old Hutchins and wounding the director, Joel Souza. Baldwin and Halyna's widower, Matthew Hutchins, announced an agreement last October to settle a civil case stemming from the shooting.
