Alec Baldwin "is canceling other projects" following an accidental shooting on the set of his film, Rust, that left cinematographer Halyna Hutchins dead and director Joel Souza injured.

A source tells PEOPLE that Baldwin, 63, is looking "to take some time to himself and re-center himself," as he has during difficult times in the past.

"This was pretty devastating," the source says. "This is how he handles difficult times. Whenever something bad happens, in the short term, he removes himself from [the] public eye."

“Arec’s” I see what you did there.

Can someone explain why Baldwin was not arrested immediately on suspicion of homicide?

We live in Amerika.

Baldwin is going down the tubes. He’s producing and starring in a shoestring movie with a $6mm budget that can’t afford a decent crew.

D list, baby.

Trump curse?

I don't care what his PR spin machine puts out. I don't care if someone told him it was a "cold gun." I don't care that it was a "prop gun," whatever that means. Arik should never have pointed it at that woman. One of the fundamental rules of gun safety is never point a gun at another person unless you intend to shoot them, whether you think it's loaded or not.

Barwin and his ilk think they know everything about everything which is why they feel entitled to tell the rest of us how to live our lives. But no one ever taught him the rules of gun safety??? You don't even need to be taught them as they are just common sense.

Same reason Bruce Jenner wasn’t arrested for killing that woman with his SUV, there is a two tier justice system in this country.

Poor me .. I’m the victim whaaa

[Texaspeptoman]

Probably already stated…
Witness the rehabilitation of the image of Alec Basta$.

[Navy Patriot]

On the awesome side, he’ll never be able to pop off in public again.

You ARE optimistic.

[Navy Patriot]

I ran into that report, too, but I can’t fully confirm it.

[SaxxonWoods]

Yep, I just checked, get this:

A budget of over $18 million may put you in the higher tier of movies but it isn’t even a quarter of the median budget for Adventure films ($76m). Other expensive genres include Sci-Fi ($61m), Fantasy ($60m) and animated movies ($60m).

At the other end are music-based movies (median budget of just $7m), Horror ($8m) and Romance ($11m).

So $6mm movie is a piece of dog meat.

Baldwin is a bust.

[al baby]

Cant wait to see this on SNL !!!!

All very valid observations.

I agree with every word of that, but unfortunately I am not King.

Hope Halyna’s husband has received SSS training...

I think here’s a guy who - sure - decently talented actor - but a real soup sandwich in the human being department going in.

Now tbis happens. I really don’t see him “re-centering” himself - ever - since I sincerely doubt he was ever close to being “centered” to begin with.

I agree, Ann, I can hear you!

[Lockbox]

It’s all about you right Alec, only you……

[Jane Austen]

I could be mistaken, but didn’t he make threats to Trump’s life? Or was it to somebody else?
