Alec Baldwin will most likely be spending about five years in prison for involuntary manslaughter for his disregard for human life on the set of \u201cRust.\u201d That leaves the question\u2026what happens to the film itself?<\/p>\n
While some believe it should be scrapped as a bad memory, others want it to go on. The woman who died settled a suit with Baldwin that gives her husband an EP spot and a wad of cash if the film gets made, so onward it goes. One big change: Keanu Reeves will take over in the leading role.<\/p>\n
\u201cNobody wants Baldwin here anymore,\u201d said set designer Joe Barron, \u201cbut we want Halyna\u2019s family to at least have some financial security.\u201d The casting director, Art Tubolls,, said Keanu Reeves was the obvious choice.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot only is he someone even the taters like, but he\u2019s also the nicest guy in the world,\u201d said Tubolls, \u201call we had to do was mention her kid and he had no choice. We\u2019re not even paying him.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThey wanted to pay me,\u201d Reeves told us via email, \u201cbut I wouldn\u2019t have it. I said to give it to the kid, and then I added a million of my own scratch to pay homeless people in the area as extras.\u201d All told, the project will cost Reeves about $3 million and a year of his life. \u201cIt\u2019s worth it to make someone smile,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
If only there were more like him, we could come up with stuff like this all day long. God Bless you, Keanu Reeves. And God Bless America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
