Alec Baldwin has broken his silence on the tragic incident that took place on the “Rust” movie set.

The 63-year-old actor spoke with photographers in Vermont and said he is cooperating with authorities on the matter. However, he is not able to talk about the case since it’s still ongoing.

“It’s an active investigation in terms of a woman died, she was my friend,” Baldwin said.

“We were a very, very well-oiled crew shooting a film together, and then this horrible event happened,” he added.

He did say that the tragic accident is a “one in a trillion event.”

“There are incidental accidents on film sets from time to time, but nothing like this,” he said. “This is a one in a trillion episode. It’s a one in a trillion event.”

He also said he is “extremely interested” in limiting the use of firearms on set. “But remember, how many bullets have been fired in films and TV shows in the last 75 years. This is America,” Baldwin said. “How many bullets have gone off in movies and on TV sets before? How many, billions in the last 75 years? And nearly all of it without incident. So what has to happen now is, we have to realize that when it does go wrong and it’s this horrible, catastrophic thing, some new measures have to take place. Rubber guns, plastic guns, no live — no real armaments on set. That’s not for me to decide. It’s urgent that you understand I’m not an expert in this field, so whatever other people decide is the best way to go in terms of protecting people’s safety on film sets, I’m all in favor of and I will cooperate with that in any way that I can.”

Photographers got a chance to speak with Baldwin while he and his wife Hilaria were on the road. He agreed to talk to them if they gave him some space.

Baldwin fired a gun on the set of “Rust” in New Mexico on Oct. 21, killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza.

Fox News reported that assistant director Dave Halls misinformed Baldwin that the gun was a “cold gun,” meaning “not hot” or unloaded after armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed had placed the gun on a cart on set.
