A settlement has been reached in a lawsuit filed by Halyna Hutchins’ husband and 9-year-old son … and the outcome seems surprisingly positive for those involved. In a statement (via the Associated Press), Hutchins’ widower said, “Our case will be dismissed. The filming of Rust, which I will now executive produce, will resume with all the original principal players on board, in January 2023.”
Alec Baldwin also shared the news, posting a screenshot of an article announcing the settlement to his Instagram. “Throughout this difficult process, everyone has maintained the specific desire to do what is best for Halyna’s son,” the actor wrote in his caption. “We are grateful to everyone who contributed to the resolution of this tragic and painful situation.”
His post received mixed reactions, with one incredulous user writing, “You can’t really continue to make this movie, can you?” Still, the wishes seem to be in line with those of Hutchins’ family, who hope that the completed movie can further the talented cinematographers’ legacy. Although Variety reports that some of the original crew “[wants] nothing to do with it,” another expressed hope that it would “bring a sense of closure.”
