It’s been one year since Halyna Hutchins was fatally shot on the set of “Rust” in New Mexico and Alec Baldwin is sharing a post on Instagram to remember the late cinematographer.
“One year ago today…” Baldwin, 64, captioned the image of Hutchins. The actor limited the comments on the Instagram post, but fans were able to write a few thoughts.
“Such a sad day for you all,” one person wrote. “My deepest sympathies to her family and to you,” added another person. Others slammed Baldwin for sharing the post, with one person writing: “Inappropriate. This could be very misunderstood.”
“You’re a bold one,” said another commenter.
Hutchins died when a gun Baldwin was holding fired while practicing a scene on the New Mexico movie set on Oct. 21, 2021. The group had been rehearsing in a small church on the Bonanza Creek Ranch set.

Baldwin has maintained that he did not pull the trigger of the gun — once during a primetime interview shortly following the deadly shooting and again on a recent podcast episode. The actor originally said he had pulled the hammer of the gun back as far as he could and released it.
“On the anniversary of the tragedy on the ‘Rust’ film set in Santa Fe County, District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altweis remains committed to pursuing justice for the victims, and getting answers for the community,” Heather Brewer, spokesperson for the Office of the First Judicial District Attorney, State of New Mexico, told Fox News Digital in a statement.
