In 2021, on the set of Rust, an incident occurred where a gun that was intended to be a prop accidentally discharged, leading to the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza. This unfortunate event garnered international attention, and a lengthy trial ensued involving actor Alec Baldwin, assistant director Dave Halls, and armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed.
In my latest exploration of captivating narratives, I’ve been deeply moved by “Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna,” a gripping documentary now streaming on Hulu. Directed by Halyna Hutchins’ dear friend, Rachel Mason, this film offers an intimate look at Halyna’s final days on set and the whirlwind that followed in its wake. A poignant moment that often goes unmentioned is how we, the cast and crew of her movie, learned about our colleague’s tragic demise. The documentary sheds light on this, revealing that on the fateful day of the incident, after the accident, all of us involved in the film’s production were gathered under a tent, anxiously waiting for updates regarding Halyna’s and Joel Souza’s health.
It was discovered that while the police shared the sad news with Balwin, the team learned about it through the media. Actor Devon Werkheiser stated, “It’s so frustrating because before, we had officers on set and people from production at the hospital, before any official confirmation that she had passed away, the information leaked online.
As one piece of news after another unfolded, I couldn’t help but notice a wave of reactions sweeping across the crowd. It felt like pockets of people were crumbling before my eyes as they digested the information. Reflecting on that moment, I can still feel the collective sense of despair we all shared – it was a crushing blow to hold onto hope only for the worst possible outcome to transpire.
On March 11, the forthcoming document includes the video of Baldwin’s police interrogation and his emotional response upon learning about Hutchins’ passing. The TV personality appeared shocked and horrified, covering his mouth in disbelief. Subsequently, the charges against the SNL star were dismissed in July 2024, while armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was given an 18-month prison sentence.
