Alec Baldwin cries over deadly 'Rust' shooting in reality show trailer

A montage of typical busy family moments follows, including Baldwin warning two of his kids, "Don't pee in that pool!"

But the levity halts when an aerial of the set of "Rust" is shown, as Hilaria narrates, "A son lost his mom in the most unthinkable tragedy. This is never something to forget, and we're trying to parent through it."

Later moments show Baldwin covering his face with his hands, tearing up.

"Honestly, from the bottom of my soul, I don't know where I'd be if I didn't have you and these kids," the actor says. A brief scene also appears to show Baldwin entering a therapist's office.

The Baldwin children are shown spotting a paparazzi photographer taking their picture, as Hilaria says, "It's nothing. Just ignore him."

Near the end of the minute-long clip, Hilaria says, "We've had our bad moments, but we found our foundation. We're solid and we're here together."

Howard Lee, president of TLC, also said in the release, "TLC has always been a platform for compelling stories. With 'The Baldwins,' viewers gain an unprecedented look into Alec and Hilaria Baldwin's family journey. As they navigate parenthood, marriage and life under the spotlight, the series blends moments of joy, chaos and sincerity offering a genuine portrayal beyond the headlines." 

"In the season premiere, Alec and Hilaria celebrate their oldest son Rafael's ninth birthday and, in a bid to escape the noise of the city, they head to East Hampton to continue a yearly summer tradition. But in the midst of celebration is uncertainty as Alec faces trial. Alec and Hilaria navigate the emotional complexities of the moment, all while keeping their children's lives as stable as possible."

Baldwin was tried for involuntary manslaughter in the on-set death of "Rust" cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on Oct. 21, 2021. The actor was holding a gun that discharged, with the bullet striking and killing Hutchins.

There was an additional appeal by the Santa Fe District Attorney's Office to try Baldwin again, but it was withdrawn in December.

"Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed was convicted of loading a live round into a revolver, which Baldwin fired, resulting in Hutchins' death and injury to the film's director, Joel Souza.
