Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer The producers of the Alec Baldwin film “Rust” are nine months late in paying the widower and son of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was killed in a gun accident on set in 2021, according to a recent court filing. Baldwin and the other producers announced a settlement of the family’s wrongful death lawsuit in October 2022. The terms, finalized in March 2023, provided for completion of “Rust” and payments to the Hutchins estate, including insurance funds and a portion of the profits.
Rust Movie Productions LLC was supposed to make the full guaranteed payments by June 13, 2023, according to a Feb. 7 filing from the estate’s attorneys. But that has not happened, according to the filing.
The estate is now considering its options, which include resuming the wrongful death lawsuit or filing a new one. It is not clear what caused the delay. Production resumed last April at a film ranch in Montana, several months behind schedule, and concluded in May.
The WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes then disrupted business around the industry. The film is still seeking distribution. Under the settlement, widower Matthew Hutchins was named an executive producer of the film.
Otherwise, the terms have remained confidential. The production company had an insurance policy from Chubb with a $6 million limit, according to a filing with the New Mexico Film Office. Baldwin is scheduled to face a criminal trial in July on a charge of involuntary manslaughter.
