First Trailer for Alec Baldwin's 'Rust' Debuts Ahead of May Release

The Western film, marked by the 2021 on-set tragedy, is set to premiere in select theaters and digital platforms on May 2, with proceeds benefiting Halyna Hutchins' family.

  • The trailer for 'Rust' was released on March 26, 2025, showcasing Alec Baldwin as an outlaw in the 1880s Western drama.
  • The film's production was halted in 2021 following the accidental on-set shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who is honored in the film's closing credits.
  • Alec Baldwin's manslaughter charges were dismissed in 2024 due to prosecutorial misconduct, while armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was convicted and is serving an 18-month prison sentence.
  • The movie resumed production in 2023 with Bianca Cline completing Hutchins' cinematography work and premiered at the Camerimage Film Festival in November 2024.
  • Proceeds from the film will go to Hutchins' widower, Matthew Hutchins, and their son as part of a wrongful death settlement agreement.
