The assistant director who handed Alec Baldwin the gun that killed a cinematographer said he hopes the shooting will lead to change in the industry.
David Halls announced “cold gun” to indicate the weapon was safe before giving Baldwin a firearm on the set of Western film Rust in New Mexico last month, according to court records.
