Alec Baldwin in the Western, Rust.

A first look at Rust has finally been released. The batch of first-look images comes nearly four years after the movie’s cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was accidentally killed when a live round was discharged from a prop revolver that the Western movie’s star Alec Baldwin was using.

Vanity Fair has released several images from Rust, a handful of which can be viewed below. The upcoming Western stars Baldwin as Harland Rust, an aging outlaw who comes out of hiding to rescue his thirteen-year-old nephew Lucas Hollister (Patrick Scott McDermott), after he is sentenced to hang for an accidental killing. Now fugitives, the pair have to outrun the vicious bounty hunter Fenton “Preacher” Lang (Travis Fimmel) in 1880s Kansas.

Rust also stars Frances Fisher, Jake Busey, Josh Hopkins, and Devon Werkheiser. It’s unclear when the movie might be released in North America as no studio has scooped up distribution rights for Rust in that market yet.
