Alec Baldwin and producers of the film ‘Rust’ reach settlement with the estate of Halyna Hutchins regarding her death

On Wednesday, actor Alec Baldwin announced that he and the producers of his film ‘Rust’ have reached a settlement with the estate of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who died after being shot on set nearly one year ago.  On Oct. 21, 2021. Baldwin was holding a prop gun, which was believed to be empty or “cold” when it discharged, hitting Hutchins and director Joel Souza. Souza survived the shooting.

As part of the settlement agreement, Hutchins’ husband Matthew Hutchins will become executive producer of ‘Rust’ when it resumes filming again in January. Matthew Hutchins had filed a wrongful death case against Baldwin and the movie. Hutchins said, according to Deadline.com: We have reached a settlement, subject to court approval, for our wrongful death case against the producers of ‘Rust,’ including Alec Baldwin and Rust Movie Productions, LLC.  As part of that settlement, our case will be dismissed.”

Baldwin made his own statement on Instagram“Throughout this difficult process, everyone has maintained the specific desire to do what is best for Halyna’s son. We are grateful to everyone who contributed to the resolution of this tragic and painful situation.”

Michael Hutchins said the movie will continue with its original cast and hopes it will be a fitting tribute to his wife: “I have no interest in engaging in recriminations or attribution of blame (to the producers or Mr. Baldwin). All of us believe Halyna’s death was a terrible accident. I am grateful that the producers and the entertainment community have come together to pay tribute to Halyna’s final work.”

Rage Against The Machine cancel their 2023 North American tour

Rage Against the Machine shared on their social media accounts that they have canceled their 2023 North American tour dates.

In the statement, lead singer Zack de la Rocha said that he tore his Achilles tendon at the band’s second show of the tour in Chicago (the band previously canceled their European dates in August on account of the injury). He wrote: “It’s been almost three months since Chicago, and I still look down at my leg in disbelief. Two years of waiting through the pandemic, hoping we would have an opening to be a band again and continue the work we started 30 some odd years ago. Rehearsing, training, reconciling, working our way back to form. Then one and a half shows into it and my tendon tears. I have a sever tear in my left Achilles tendon and only 8% of my tendon was left intact. And even that portion was severely compromised. It’s not simply a question of being able to perform again, but extends to basic functionality going forward.”

Rage Against the Machine announced their reunion shows in 2019, planning for them to take place in 2020. After delays due to the pandemic, the first concert took place in July 2022. Refunds will be available for the cancelled shows, though the statement did not specify if the band would make up those existing dates.

Lynn amassed 51 Top 10 hits over the course of her 60-year career, and broke down barriers for women with songs like “Don’t Come Home a Drinkin’ (With Lovin’ on Your Mind),” “Fist City” and “Coal Miner’s Daughter.” Thanks to the Oscar-winning 1980 film Coal Miner’s Daughter starring Sissy Spacek, Lynn’s story and songs were brought to a wider audience.  Lynn joined the Grand Ole Opry in 1962, won four Grammy awards, seven American Music Awards and eight Country Music Association awards. She was the first woman to win the Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music awards for Entertainer of the Year, and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1988, the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2008, and was awarded the Kennedy Center Honors in 2003 and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2013. In total Lynn sold over 45 million albums worldwide.

Lynn was pre-deceased by her husband of 48 years Oliver Vanetta “Doolittle” Lynn, her daughter Betty Sue Lynn and son Jack Benny Lynn. She is survived by her daughters Patsy Lynn Russell, Peggy Lynn, Clara (Cissie) Marie Lynn and her son Ernest Ray Lynn, as well as multiple grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
