Baldwin won't be sued by the family as they reached a settlement agreement last October 2022.
In a statement posted on Twitter, Baldwin said, “We are pleased to announce today the settlement of the civil case filed on behalf of the family of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Throughout this difficult process, everyone has maintained the specific desire to do what is best for Halyna’s son. We are grateful for everyone who contributed to the resolution of this tragic and painful situation.”
Under the settlement, the low-budget Western is slated to resume filming in January, with Hutchins’ widower serving as executive producer.

First, Baldwin released a statement on Instagram.
Later, Hutchins’ widower, Matthew Hutchins, released a statement through his attorney, Brian Panish, confirming the settlement agreement and announcing that the long-paused “Rust” project will resume production with Matthew Hutchins serving an executive producer.
Matthew Hutchins’ executive-producer role was one element of the settlement, but other details were not released.
“The filming of ‘Rust,’ which I will now executive produce, will resume with all the original principal players on board, in January 2023,” Hutchins’ statement said.
“I have no interest in engaging in recriminations or attribution of blame (to the producers or Mr. Baldwin). All of us believe Halyna’s death was a terrible accident. I am grateful that the producers and the entertainment community have come together to pay tribute to Halyna’s final work.”
Sounds very sketchy to me.
