Alec Baldwin is honoured with the Lifetime award at the 42nd Torino Film Festival amid claims he is trying to rescue his acting career 

Alec Baldwin was honoured withthe Lifetime award at the 42nd Torino Film Festival in Italy on Monday. 

The actor, 66, put his best foot forward as he posed for pH๏τographers in Turin amid claims he is trying to rescue his career after the fatal Rust shooting in 2021. 

The star looked dapper in a pair of charcoal grey trousers and a navy blazer with a matching grey and navy striped tie to collect the Stella della Mole lifetime for his acting career.

The star went solo for his appearance at the festival, where he also gave a press conference, following claims he is using his family to rebuild his reputation through their new reality show. 

Rust ceased production after a prop gun held by the Still Alice star went off on October 21, 2021, killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.

A live round had somehow got into the vintage Colt revolver Alec was holding. 

Hutchins, 42, had been demonstrating how she wanted him to hold the weapon when it went off, fatally shooting her in the chest.

In the immediate aftermath the Boss Baby actor said he was grief stricken but denied responsibility and was let off on the charge of involuntary manslaughter on a technicality. 

But more than three years on the Hollywood veteran is not receding in to the shadows. 

Instead, he is in the throes of a multi-pronged attempt to relaunch his career.

He has a new slot on legendary US comedy show Saturday Night Live, a reality TV show featuring himself, his wife Hilaria and their seven children, and is about to receive a ‘lifetime achievement’ in cinema award.

And the actor is forging forth with his new reality show despite the ongoing fall out. 

The cameras began rolling on The Baldwins – to be shown on cable network TLC – earlier this year, before he had faced manslaughter charges. 

A trailer suggests it will depict the chaos of life in the big family at their New York home and the clan have been seen filming outdoor cook-outs in The Hamptons.

Hilaria – controversial for adopting a Spanish persona, despite being raised plain Hillary in Boston, by American parents – seems to have been instrumental in putting the family on the screen.

At one time she was interested in joining the cast of The Real Housewives of New York before she switched her attention to a proposal for her own show.

Insiders say The Baldwins, out in January, pitches Alec as the doting older dad, the ʙuтт of ‘amusing’ jokes about how out of control his brood are, and how he struggles to keep up with them.

Many, though, disapprove of the move. One online critic wrote: ‘If he had any decency he would disappear permanently after what he did. Instead he flaunts his family in a show after destroying a different family.’

Others are critical of Hilaria calling her: ‘Thirstier (for attention) than a camel in the Sahara and as Spanish as your average Bostonian.’

And while Alec has been jetting across the world to pick up awards, he was notably absent from the emotional Rust premiere in Poland.

At the event, the wounded director and friends of late cinematographer Halyna gathered in her honor.

The movie premiered at the EnergaCAMERIMAGE Film Festival in Toruń, Poland on Wednesday but without Alec.

The actor is understood to have not been invited to the event due to fears his presence would overshadow the premiere.

Tickets for the world premiere sparked an online frenzy as the demand crashed the private booking website as the event began to sell out Tuesday morning.

Alongside staging the world premiere, festival organizers held a panel discussion featuring Souza, cinematographer Bianca Cline who took over the project, and Halyna’s mentor Stephen Lighthill after the screening.

The trio discussed events surrounding the movie and how production continued with Bianca following Hutchins’ death, as well as talk about the role of women in cinematography and safety on film sets.

Ahead of the controversial premiere, the My Sister’s Keeper star was slammed by Hutchins’ mother, Olga Solovey, who chose not to attend the event.

‘It was always my hope to meet my daughter in Poland to watch her work come alive on screen. Unfortunately, that was ripped away from me when Alec Baldwin discharged his gun and killed my daughter.
