The family of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was shot and killed on the set of the film Rust is suing Alec Baldwin and the movie’s producers

The family is suing the movie star and the producers for wrongful death of the cinematographer, who was working on the set of Rust when she was fatally shot by Baldwin.

Lawyers for the family of Hutchins revealed the lawsuit had been filed in the name of Hutchins’s husband, Matthew Hutchins, and their son, Andros.

Around four other lawsuits have been filed over the on-set fatality, but this is the first directly tied to one of the two people shot.

The “reckless conduct and cost-cutting measures” of Baldwin and the film’s producers “led to the death of Halyna Hutchins,” lawyer Brian Panish said.

A video created by the legal team showed an animated recreation of the shooting.

Alec Baldwin says he pointed the gun at Halayna Hutchins under “her direction.”

Another member of the crew was also injured during the shooting.

Musk’s unconventional management style hasn’t slowed investor enthusiasm, even amidst regulatory hurdles. The funds raised could also support groundbreaking innovations, including energy-efficient space data centers.

Disney invests $1 billion in OpenAI for AI-generated videos featuring iconic characters, enhancing fan interactions and launching in 2026.

Disney is taking AI to the next level, investing $1 billion in OpenAI to create a licensing deal that allows users to generate videos featuring more than 200 characters from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar. This partnership could redefine how fans interact with their favorite characters.

The deal will let users stream short AI-generated videos directly on Disney+, and ChatGPT will also produce images of Disney’s licensed characters. However, the agreement excludes talent likenesses or voices, keeping human performances separate.

Set to launch in 2026, the collaboration also gives Disney warrants to purchase additional OpenAI equity and use AI tools for product development, opening doors to new creative opportunities.
