I continue to think this is bonkers.
The people actually producing that picture were horrendously negligent. Baldwin -- as the most powerful person on the set and a titular producer -- should've done something to address ongoing problems the crew had been complaining about and quitting over.
But the idea that an actor is responsible for vetting a prop he's been handed? Whatever he did with it, I in no way believe he would have done any of it knowing it was loaded.
