Alec Baldwin has been involved in a car crash along with his brother, actor Stephen Baldwin, in The Hamptons on Monday (October 13) afternoon.
The actor, known for films such as The Hunt For Red October and TV show 30 Rock, crashed a white Range Rover into a tree in the US seaside resort, and spoke to officers at the scene. The incident was captured by Page Six, and the actor appeared uninjured.
The outlet reports that Baldwin had been in the area for the Hamptons International Film Festival, something seemingly confirmed by the actor in a video posted on his Instagram addressing the situation.

“My brother Stephen was visiting me. And we spent the weekend out there for the film festival,” he said. “This morning I was in a car accident, this guy cut me off. A big garbage truck … a garbage truck the size of a whale … it was the biggest garbage truck I’d ever seen … to avoid hitting him, I hit a tree. I hit a big fat tree and crushed my wife’s car.”
He continued: “I crushed my wife’s car and I feel bad about that. But it’s all fine and I’m fine and my brother’s fine.”
Once one of Hollywood’s most in-demand stars, Baldwin has been away from the big screen since a fatal shooting on the set of the Western Rust. On October 21, 2021, he discharged a revolver used as a prop and was unaware that it had been improperly loaded with live ammunition, resulting in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
In 2023, he was charged with involuntary manslaughter in a case which was then dropped and was tried again in 2024. The case against the actor was dismissed last July, and officially concluded in December 2024 after New Mexico prosecutors decided not to pursue an appeal of the court’s decision to dismiss an involuntary manslaughter charge against him. Baldwin has since filed a lawsuit against the district attorney and other Santa Fe officials for malicious prosecution and civil rights violations.
The aftermath of the shooting was covered in The Baldwins, a reality show following the actor and his wife Hilaria. During the show, Alec Baldwin reflected on “terrible” mental health decline after the shooting, confessing: “I’m happier when I’m asleep.”
The show, which debuted in February on TLC, was described as “shameless” by Hutchins’ family.
