Alec Baldwin called for a ban on live ammunition on the set of films

A video recording of the famous American actor's statement appeared on the TMZ portal. Baldwin said he was banned by the Santa Fe County Sheriff from commenting on the investigation into the accident on the set of the western "Rust".

According to the actor, he had friendly relations with the deceased Galina Hutchins. On the evening of that unlucky day, Baldwin, Hutchins and director Joel Sousa were supposed to have dinner together. Alec Baldwin noticed that they were all a close-knit film crew, TASS reports.

Now the actor is in favor of the relevant authorities to limit the use of live ammunition during the filming of shooting scenes. As Baldwin said, rubber or plastic bullets can be used as a compromise. Whether he will continue to act in roles requiring the use of firearms, the actor has not yet decided.
