Hollywood actor Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson said he would not use real guns again in his movies after his friend and fellow actor Alec Baldwin accidentally shot and killed a cinematographer on a film set in New Mexico last month.
LOS ANGELES -- Hollywood actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson said he would not use real guns again in his movies after his friend and fellow actor Alec Baldwin accidentally shot and killed a cinematographer on a film set in New Mexico last month.
Baldwin had been told by an assistant director that the gun was "cold," an industry term meaning it is safe to use. "That was a terrible scenario that happened. I've known Alec for many, many years. He's a buddy of mine, and my heart goes out to the families of everybody who was involved," he said. The "Fast & Furious" star said from now on his production company would use rubber guns and that they would "take care of it in post and we won't worry about the dollars."
