Alec Baldwin has reached a settlement in the wrongful death lawsuit lobbied against him, the producers of Rust, and other key members of the crew by Halyna Hutchins’ husband, Matthew Hutchins.

The suit also argued they “knowingly hired a wholly unqualified armorer,” Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, and required her to split time in a second role as assistant props master.
