The first trailer for Alec Baldwin's 'Rust' -- the Western film made infamous by the fatal on-set shooting of its cinematographer -- was released Wednesday.

The dark movie trailer shows Baldwin's gunslinging character on the run with his grandson, who has been sentenced to hang for the accidental killing of a local rancher.

'Some things in this life you can't get back,' says Baldwin's character, in one scene.

In real life, Baldwin was pointing a gun toward cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during a rehearsal in New Mexico in 2021 when the weapon fired, killing her and wounding the film's director Joel Souza.

The Hollywood star was accused by prosecutors of violating gun safety rules, but his involuntary manslaughter trial collapsed last year over withheld evidence.
