'Rust' trailer shows Alec Baldwin as an outlaw in first footage since on-set shooting
"Rust" has released its first trailer for the Western film since a gun Alec Baldwin was holding discharged and killed the movie's cinematographer, Halyna Hutchins, in 2021.
The movie, set in 1880s Wyoming, stars Baldwin as "notorious outlaw" Harland Rust. The movie shows orphan Lucas McCalister (Patrick Scott McDermott) who "accidentally kills a rancher" and is sentenced to hang for his crimes.
Baldwin's Harland Rust is the orphan's estranged grandfather who breaks him out of jail and takes him on the run to Mexico, according to a press release obtained by Fox News Digital.
"As they flee across the unforgiving wilderness, the fugitive pair must outrun the determined U.S. Marshal Wood Helm (Josh Hopkins) and a ruthless bounty hunter named "Preacher" (Travis Fimmel)," the synopsis said.
According to a press release, the original "Rust" producers will not gain financially from the movie.
"The terms of his settlement were sealed, but it has been confirmed that Hutchins and son Andros will receive profits from the film," the release said.
"Rust" cinematographer Halyna Hutchins died Oct. 21, 2021, after a gun Baldwin was holding fired on the Bonanza Creek Ranch film set in New Mexico.
Baldwin has maintained in multiple interviews he did not pull the trigger of the gun. The actor, 65, described the moment the gun was discharged during a TV appearance in December 2021, months after the fatal shooting.
"I let go of the hammer of the gun," Baldwin told ABC's George Stephanopoulos. "And the gun goes off."
The movie's armorer, Hannah Gutierrez Reed, was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to 18 months behind bars.
In July, a Santa Fe judge dismissed Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter case.
Baldwin cupped his face in his hands and wept as Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed the case with prejudice, meaning the charge cannot be brought against the actor again.
"The state's willful withholding of this information was intentional and deliberate," Sommer said. "If this conduct does not rise to the level of bad faith, it certainly comes so near to bad faith as to show signs of scorching prejudice.
"There is no way for the court to right this wrong."
"Rust" is scheduled for release in theaters May 2.

You Likely Hate This Masterpiece Sci-Fi Show. Here's Why You Need to Rewatch It in 2025
You may be thinking, "Really, Macy? You're going to the mat over a show that came out over 20 years ago?" Well, yes. Because it simply isn't given the respect it deserves. Like many Americans, my family and I loved our nights huddled around the TV to watch our favorite TV shows live. For us, that meant American Idol, Dexter and, of course, ABC's network hit Lost. There's a good chance you watched Lost in the early 2000s, too. And there's an even better chance you think it got bad. Or you have some sort of perspective that it started strong but went off the rails after the first three seasons. Somewhere along the way -- maybe when the flash-sideways began, or when a smoke monster turned into a man, or when you realized there wasn't going to be a clear-cut answer to every mystery -- you bailed. Maybe you saw the finale and thought it ruined the whole show. (More on that later.) I watched Lost when I was a kid, but hadn't revisited it for close to a decade. Until it came to streaming services, first Hulu and now Netflix and Disney Plus. One day, I decided to replay the pilot episode and, well, it transformed me into the person writing this 1,500-word defense. I binged the show and then immediately turned around and binged it again. I'm truly mad at myself for wasting so much time thinking this show was a disappointment. In truth, it's a glorious, ambitious near-masterpiece. It's my favorite show. That's why I'm writing this. I'm here to ask you to do something radical: Rewatch Lost in 2025. Yes, all of it. And this time, go in with fresh eyes -- see it not as a weekly network drama, but as a serialized, character-driven odyssey that, along with The Sopranos and Mad Men, paved the way for the prestige genre TV we obsess over now. Because the truth is, Lost wasn't a failure. It was just ahead of its time. Here's why. It's time to go back to the island for a 2025 rewatch. ABC's Lost Looking for more streaming recommendations? You should also watch my favorite movie, a historical drama packed with modern themes, for free now. No, the ending is not what you think The last thing I want to do is spoil the ending of a show I'm trying to get you to rewatch. But I feel like I need to address this early since one of the main reasons audiences ultimately turned on the show was a misconception about the ending. I'll tell you right now, spoilers be damned. They. Were. Not. All. Dead. The. Whole. Time. The idea that the characters were really all dead the whole series and that the island was just a purgatory-like state is completely untrue. It's been debunked by the creators of the show, the actors who starred in the show and the dialogue in the series finale itself. A twist ending like that -- revealing they had all died in the plane crash right at the start -- would be a horrible one. It would retroactively reduce the entire plot of the show to meaningless, empty nothingness. So, thankfully, that's not how it actually ended. Now, you can just enjoy the show knowing that it all matters. The cinematography of Lost is some of the best ever put to television. ABC's Lost TV in 2004 didn't look like Lost When Lost premiered in 2004, there was nothing like it on network television. A lush, cinematic sci-fi mystery shot on 35mm film, with a massive ensemble cast of mostly unknown actors and an evolving mythology? On ABC, of all places? In the era of CSI, Desperate Housewives, and the dozens of other cop shows and formulaic TV, Lost was a risk. Lost is a sci-fi show (I think a lot of people forget that) with horror and supernatural elements. It's serialized, meaning you must see each episode to understand the next one, unlike so many shows that were airing on network TV at the time. The show follows a group of drastically different people who have just survived a plane crash on a remote, tropical island that seems to harbor deep, dark mysteries. But each survivor has secrets of their own. And they must live together in order to survive. (I can vividly remember hearing protagonist Jack Shepard say, "If we don't learn to live together… we're gonna die alone.") These characters come together with their differences, their pasts (beautifully depicted in flashback scenes), their traumas, their hopes and their desires, to collectively navigate this horrible situation. What unfolds is six seasons of intense, heart-wrenching plot points that subvert expectations and are rich with themes of faith, spirituality, dualism, philosophy and the mystical. It's pretty normal for TV shows now to be cinematic. Shows like The Last of Us, Succession, Stranger Things and Severance all make use of big budgets, high-quality production, engrossing performances and teams of insanely talented writers. But Lost was doing that in 2004 on ABC, which means the showrunners were dealing with the many obstacles and restrictions of network television. For instance, the show's creators -- J.J. Abrams, Jeffrey Lieber and Damon Lindelof -- wanted Lost to only be three seasons, but ABC said no, and pushed them to do 10 seasons when they saw what a hit the show had become. They eventually negotiated down to the six seasons we have today. But that's twice the amount of runtime the original creators intended. Despite this, the writers crafted compelling story lines and introduced some of the most intriguing characters (Ben, Juliet, Jacob, Penny, Miles) into the later seasons. It's easy to forget that Lost was doing time jumps, shifting perspectives and emotional bottle episodes long before The Leftovers, Dark or Severance existed. It experimented with structure constantly: a flashback here, a flash-forward there, a time loop in season 5. Entire episodes would focus on side characters you hadn't seen in weeks. It was complicated, sure, but thrillingly so. The show trusted its audience to keep up, even when it was confusing. And yes, that led to frustration at the time, but trust me, it works much better now that Lost is on streaming services. It's a show that really should be binged, so that you can truly appreciate the nuance and hidden details of the writing. The things that made Lost so good at the time are why it hasn't been fully appreciated. It was simply ahead of its time. Small plot seeds would be introduced and then left unvisited for several episodes, making Lost a show that's perfect for binge-watching. ABC's Lost Lost indeed was a risk, but one that paid off in six seasons of wild, genre-bending storytelling and a gut-punch, emotional ending that will land as long as you give it another chance with an open mind. Read also: The 21 Best Sci-Fi TV Shows to Stream on Netflix It holds up in 2025 Part of what makes Lost such a rewarding rewatch in 2025 is that it doesn't feel dated. The series still looks and sounds incredible. Because it was filmed on 35mm, which can be upscaled and remastered. Plus, shot on-location in Hawaii, the series still looks gorgeous. Lost was shot on 35mm film, which means it can be upscaled and still look brand new 20 years later. ABC's Lost The performances of the 14 regularly recurring leads of the cast are absolutely brilliant, too. Even though this was a cast of mostly unknown actors at the time, they all, guest actors included, reached a caliber of performance that is still so rare to witness in a TV series. And the music is absolutely remarkable. Michael Giacchino (The Incredibles, Up, Coco, Inside Out) created what I think is the best TV score of all time for Lost. I mean, he used debris from the crashed plane from the pilot episode to create the unique, bizarre sounds you hear each episode. The score is a perfect fit for a unique storyline. More than anything else, Lost is a show that will make you feel. Lost is a show that is full of emotionally poignant moments. ABC's Lost Is every plotline perfect? No. Do the final seasons get a bit complex? Absolutely. But on balance, Lost is one of the most ambitious, strange, beautiful things ever put on television, and it is emotionally satisfying from start to finish. Lost opened the door for serialized sci-fi and genre storytelling on TV, especially character-first narratives with weird, metaphysical themes. What I'm saying is that without Lost, it's hard to imagine Severance, Stranger Things or other TV sci-fi faves. So if you haven't watched it since 2010 -- or if you've never watched it at all -- now's the time. The entire series is available to stream on Hulu, Netflix, Disney Plus and Prime Video for rent. Skip the Reddit threads. Forget the hot takes. Just hit play. And maybe, just maybe, you'll find that Lost didn't lose its way. We just didn't know how to watch it yet.

Roseanne Barr Claims The Conners Wanted Her Back — Here's What the EPs Told Us About a Possible Cameo
In a new documentary chronicling her career in comedy and television, Roseanne Barr alleges that she was asked to appear on The Conners as a ghost, after her family matriarch landed six feet under. 'They called me and asked me if I would like to come back as a guest star,' the Emmy winner claims in Roseanne Is America, according to People. 'You're asking me to come back to the show that you f—king stole from me and killed my a—, and now you want me to show up because you got s—t f—king ratings and play a ghost.' More from TVLine The Conners Was a Good Revival — But If They'd Honored Roseanne History, It Could've Been Great The Conners Series Finale: EPs Reflect on Roseanne's Absence, Fourth Wall Break and Parallels to Original Ending Casting News: Felicity Huffman Joins Doc, Jen Garner Drama Adds Chloë Sevigny and More Barr insists that she turned down the request, telling producers, 'I'm gonna be bowling that f—king week.' But a source tells TVLine that Barr's claims are 'inaccurate.' TVLine reached out to Barr's rep for further clarification on when, exactly, she received the invite. Barr declined comment. Barr was famously fired by ABC in 2018 after she hit send on a bigoted tweet that nearly took her sitcom family down with her. But the beloved series, not unlike the working-class family at its center, persevered: Three weeks after Roseanne was cancelled, Barr reached a financial settlement with Werner Entertainment that allowed the production company to move forward with a spinoff without her participation. That agreement also forbade The Conners from using her likeness — hence the offshoot never showing Roseanne Conner in pictures or in flashbacks. When the agreement was reached, Barr put out the following statement: 'I regret the circumstances that have caused me to be removed from Roseanne. I agreed to the settlement in order that 200 jobs of beloved cast and crew could be saved, and I wish the best for everyone involved.' Seven years later, ahead of The Conners' series finale, TVLine spoke with executive producers Bruce Helford, Bruce Rasmussen and Dave Caplan, and asked if they considered having Barr make a cameo. At the time, Helford was quick to remind me, 'We pulled a Newhart the first time!' (He was referring to 2018's Roseanne revival, which kicked off with the resurrection of John Goodman's Dan Conner, who was killed off in the original series' 1997 finale.) To do it again, this time with Dan's late wife, 'would have felt to us like a rug pull,' Rasmussen said. According to Helford, the only conversation they ever had was about preserving the memory of Barr's character, 'and we felt we did that. People loved her, her family loved her, and we wanted to make sure that this was something that honored that.' Added Caplan: 'We never ran away from, or disrespected her character. That was a conscious decision on all our parts.' Disney/ABC also declined comment for this story, while reps for the EPs have not responded as of press time.
