NEW: A settlement has been reached between Alec Baldwin, movie production company and the family of Halyna Hutchins over the cinematographer’s fatal shooting on set.

“The filming of 'Rust,' which I will now executive produce, will resume with all the original principal players on board in January 2023," Matthew's statement said."I have no interest in engaging in recriminations or attribution of blame . All of us believe Halyna’s death was a terrible accident. I am grateful that the producers and the entertainment community have come together to pay tribute to Halyna’s final work.

Among the ammunition seized from the film location were live rounds found on a cart and in the holster that was in the building where the shooting happened. Blank and dummy cartridges also were found. New Mexico’s Occupational Health and Safety Bureau in a scathing report issued in April detailed a narrative of safety failures in violation of standard industry protocols, including testimony that production managers took limited or no action to address two misfires on set prior to the fatal shooting.

"Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed is speaking out for the first time, one week after the accidental death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. The bureau also documented gun safety complaints from crew members that went unheeded and said weapons specialists were not allowed to make decisions about additional safety training., New Mexico’s medical investigator’s office pointed to “the absence of obvious intent to cause harm or death” and stated that there was said “no compelling demonstration” that the revolver was intentionally loaded with live ammunition on the set.
