Friday, October 04, 2024 - The movie is set to premiere next month at Poland’s EnergaCAMERIMAGE International Cinematography Film Festival in the city of Toruń.
This comes three years after the tragic accidental shooting
of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. A bullet fired from a loaded prop gun
killed her on set.
The premiere event will also feature a special panel to
honor Hutchins' life.
Director Joel Souza, who was hurt in the 2021 set
accident, will helm the panel. Joining him will be cinematographer Bianca
Cline, who stepped in to finish the film, and Stephen Lighthill, one of
Halyna's film school mentors.
Baldwin reportedly won't be attending the "Rust"
premiere.
As for the rest of the cast, it’s still up in the air
whether they’ll show up.
Production on "Rust" stopped after Halyna's death,
but it eventually picked back up and finished, with Baldwin and
the producers pushing through, even with a manslaughter charge hanging over the
actor's head.
The trial took a surprising turn in July when it was
dismissed following the revelation prosecutors withheld key live ammo
evidence from Baldwin's legal team.
Meanwhile, "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed is
currently serving an 18-month prison sentence after
being convicted of involuntary manslaughter.
