Alec Baldwin entered a plea on Wednesday in the case against him following the 2021 shooting on the set of the film “Rust” that left cinematographer Halyna Hutchins dead and injured director Joel Souza.

In a court filing, Baldwin entered the plea and waived his right to an arraignment, which was scheduled to happen virtually on Thursday, ABC News noted. If convicted, Baldwin could spend up to 18 months in prison, the outlet noted.
