Wow that’s crazy.. I bet this movie will not be finished. This is tragic prayers to family and all involved
Hollywood only cares about the films.
My main concern at this point is the movie as well. Who cares about the victims. Just get someone else in their and finnish this thing. Glad we’re on the same page 👍
It’s Hollywood… of course they’ll finish it
@WOLFMAN TROY what about the prop department aren’t they supposed to check the gun before they give it to the actor.
@kickin kitchen All of these comments are coming from butthurt Trumpers…. ❄
The fact that real bullets are ever anywhere near a movie set is laughable , but if one ended up in that gun …. someone is responsible, at this point there is no telling what happend … but when you assume you end up with dipshit conspiracies (that im sure you love)
I am so sorry that this tragedy happened. I feel bad for everyone involved.
“ I wonder what it’s like to wrongfully kill somebody” -Alec Baldwin talking about Derek Chauvin on Twitter
Libtards will literally forget about this anyway just like Bruce Jenner’s car accident killing and be back to laughing at more Trump SNL’s for the next few years. If this had been Mel Gibson or someone else, the reactions would be different.
@Bob Barker that’s a terrible thing to say. I’m a conservative, we don’t want people to die just because we don’t agree with them.
@shot Johnny cOVID-19 is 99.8% survivable according to the latest CDC rating. I would provide a link but YouTube automatically deletes links like that. I know because of prior experience. In the case you do get COVID-19 your probability of being hospitalized is between 1% and 5%; that is according to report published in the New York Times.
@Rudy Galindo if you believe 700k deaths from covid iv got some imaginary insurance to sell you
It’s things like this that make you lost for words, this is a senseless tragedy, may she rest in peace.

On the original Macgyver TV show a cast member was injured after an unauthorized person made changes to a prop gun, nobody was killed. There will be of course an investigation into the chain of contact with the weapon in question. Always with weapons, safety first.
Aren’t movie sets supposed to have some sort of armorer or weapons master? This never should have happened.
Exactly. On this set there are multiple guns. They are usually handled by a professional Armorer, that is hired by the Property Master
Yes. Absolutely.
It’s not the first time this has happened. I’m sure they will get to the bottom of what went wrong.
axel4196 <<<<< Claims this should've never happened. Let's listen in.... as axel4196 gives us more sage advice.
An armorer would normally be in charge of a weapon on set. It is their responsibility to check the weapon each and every time, preparing it for the scene. It is, in fact, quite a responsibility and usually handled professionally. Sometimes they are called the weapons master or prop-gun master.
The Crew around the movie Star are responsible for the safty . They have to Check the weappons .
@chris <---lol funny little clown, there has to be some loser that's going to hop on this story and figure out some way to make it into politics and an excuse to attack an actor lol. By the way, you keep asking people, "Were you there", ok um, were you there? So how is it you can claim he did this on purpose? You're clearly a Trump voter...biggest, forked tongue, double talk, hypocrites on the Earth Go back to your cabbage and pork, you clown
@shot Johnny This could have all been avoided if everyone knew gun safety. These guys are so anti-gun yet are fantasizing it in films. At least be aware of the equipment you are using as an actor, especially if you are intended to point said gun at someone and pull the trigger. I can’t even do that with an unloaded firearm. The actor has as much to blame since he pulled the trigger without safety precautions usually taught in gun safety courses. But who needs that, right?
BLM BALDWIN LIVES MATTER
Yes. Something not right about this.
guyssssss these super upbeat generic outros are KILLLLLLLING ME when its on a story like this
IKR
This is just simply heartbreaking. Consoling prayers for everyone evolved and their families.
But remember to subscribe for “great content” lmao. Fr God bless.
“Evolved”? Who has evolved?
@A Grill Has No Name I think he meant “involved” lol.
@Daniel Albert I saw that little ad at the end. lol. pathetic, ABC.
@A Grill Has No Name Victim of auto correct. Then again, evolutionary practices may have contributed. We should discuss this in detail. 🤔
It’s like The Crow all over again. Brandon Lee’s tragic death.
I though brandon was shot in the stomach by a real bullet and it was intentionally done.
I was thinking the same thing!
If only those pedowood actors would follow threw with that gun control. Omg
The Crow? Not even close. God people are so dumb.
@mitch jones how many movie scenes have guns pointed at the camera ? Could have been some weird shot or something gone wrong , no reason to imagine elaborate stories when we don’t have any info yet
Sounds like that bullet was for whoever he was supposed to aim at during the scene.
The guy has started going to church after this incident and declared Jesus Christ to be his savior.
Makes you wonder if he was setup
@v j I was wondering the same. With all the deception in the world right now, that’s definitely a possibility.
Wow…captain obvious
