Facing a potential refiling of criminal charges in the fatal 2021 shooting of Rust cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, Alec Baldwin on Wednesday failed in an attempt to have a civil case over the tragedy dismissed.
In a technically challenged virtual hearing this morning before New Mexico’s First Judicial District Court judge Bryan Biedscheid, Baldwin and co-defendants El Dorado Pictures and Rust Movie Productions’ motion to dismiss was denied. The judge also denied an additional motion to stay the matter until the criminal trial is over.
Earlier this year, Rust crew members Ross Addiego, Doran Curtin and Reese Price took Baldwin and the production companies to court for “negligent and reckless conduct.” Facing a plethora of cases arising out of the shooting on the indie Western, the defendants had a back-up plan to have the Addiego, Curtin and Price case stayed until the Rust criminal trial is over.

Segovia — Things got weird in Segovia over the weekend at Spanish animation, video game and new media networking event and festival 3D Wire. And it looks like it’s going to stay that way. As of Saturday evening’s closing ceremony, the annual event went by the name Weird Market. It also plans to expand to include other formats including comic books and tabletop games.
“The new name is quite literal. It’s going to be a weird event,” 3D Wire-and now Weird – founder-director José Luis Farias explained to Variety in Segovia. “There will be new dedicated sections for comics and tabletop games. We are going to focus more on IP and we don’t care if it starts out as something as small as an animated Gif or a toy. In the end, we want to work with good ideas.”
