The tragedy that unfolded on a New Mexico movie set when Alec Baldwin fired a prop gun, killing a cinematographer, has led to calls for fundamental change in Hollywood.

The film industry and its unions provide guidelines on how to deal safely with prop guns on movie sets.

The shooting death of a cinematographer on the set of the set of the Alec Baldwin movie “Rust” is a reminder of the dangers that can exist on film and television sets.

Hours before actor Alec Baldwin fired a fatal gunshot from a prop gun that he had been told was safe, seven camera crew members for the movie he was filming walked off the job to protest conditions and production issues that included safety concerns.

Following gun-safety rules is always imperative, even on a movie set.

The death of director of photography Halyna Hutchins on a film set in Santa Fe, N.M., is a reminder that prop weapons can pose a serious risk. But Hollywood history includes only a few such incidents.

Court records show that an assistant director unwittingly handed Alec Baldwin a loaded weapon and told him it was safe to use in the moments before the actor fatally shot a cinematographer.

Actor Alec Baldwin fired a prop firearm on set Thursday, killing the director of photography working on his film and injuring its director, police said.

Could Miley Cyrus be joining The Hills: New Beginnings? "Yeah, that'd be f**king hilarious," he added, of the possibility of Cyrus joining the cast next season.

News of the split broke after Cyrus was snapped kissing Carter while on vacation in Italy, in pictures obtained by ET. Just days later, Cyrus released "Slide Away," and MTV announced that Cyrus would be performing the track just hours before the awards show kicked off on Monday.

Still, Lee also doesn't rule out the possibility of Jenner and Carter getting back together. Jenner and Carter announced their breakup with a joint statement from their reps reading, "Brody Jenner and Kaitlynn Carter have decided to amicably separate.
