On February 23, 2025, the series “The Baldwins” debuted on TLC, focusing on actor Alec Baldwin, his wife Hilaria, and their seven kids. This series was filmed approximately a month prior to Alec’s upcoming trial in New Mexico concerning the tragic Rust shooting incident. The show addresses this unfortunate event that took place during the filming of Rust as a significant element within it.
How does TLC’s The Baldwins cover the Rust controversy?
Episode 1 of “The Baldwins” sets the scene just prior to Alec Baldwin’s trial commencing, which was instigated due to manslaughter accusations stemming from the tragic demise of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during the making of the Western movie Rust in 2021. This high-profile court case unfolded in a New Mexico courtroom on July 9, 2024. Yet, only three days later, the presiding judge dropped the charges against Baldwin, asserting that crucial evidence had been withheld. This decision was reaffirmed by the same judge in October 2024.
Filming for “The Baldwins” started in June 2024. In the first episode, the main characters are shown moving from New York City to their Hamptons home. Although Alec eventually won his case, he confessed that he had doubts about the outcome while filming began. “I have one dominant thought, I have one major concern – and that is reassuring seven children of my love for them,” Alec expresses in the series. “I’m concerned.” (Adapted from The New York Times)
What else is TLC’s The Baldwins about?
In the scope of “The Baldwins” production, events like the Rust incident and subsequent trial are integral, yet the series also delves into other aspects. For example, Hilaria discusses her Spanish accent controversy from late 2020. It’s been mentioned by producers that the Rust incident is predominantly addressed in the initial episodes of Season 1, while the latter part of the season concentrates more on Alec Baldwin, Hilaria, and their family’s everyday life.
