Alec Baldwin has expressed his sorrow to the family of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins after an incident on the set of the film Rust saw her die after he fired a prop gun.

Prop guns fire blanks — gunpowder charges that produce a flash and a bang but not a hard projectile. But when the trigger is pulled, the paper or plastic wadding is ejected from the barrel with enough force that it can be lethal at close range, as proved to be the case in the death of an actor in 1984. In another accident in 1993, while filming the movie The Crow, actor Brandon Lee was killed after a bullet was left in a prop gun.

Robert De Niro 78, has scored an important legal victory against his estranged wife after a court ruled she was not entitled to half of his income. Hightower, a 66-year-old philanthropist, socialite and actress, claimed she was owed half the money De Niro made in Hollywood and from business ventures while they were together. The earnings, she argued, counted as marital assets to be split evenly, in accordance with a 2004 prenuptial agreement she signed with him.
