Actor Alec Baldwin and the producers of the Western “Rust” have reached a settlement with the family of the movie’s cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who Baldwin shot dead during filming last year, Hutchins’ husband said on Wednesday.

Under the deal, the family’s civil lawsuit against Baldwin and others will be dismissed and filming of the movie will resume in January with all the original principal players, Matthew Hutchins said in a statement.
