Alec Baldwin has posted a tribute to Halyna Hutchins one year after the fatal Rust shooting.

Taking to Instagram on 21 October, a year after Hutchins was tragically shot and died on set, he simply posted an image of her with the words: "One year ago today..."

Director Joel Souza was also wounded in the shooting on the Bonanza Creek Ranch set near Santa Fe.

The actor was working on the set of his new film when a prop gun, which was loaded with live ammunition, went off and killed the 42-year-old.

Back in October, it was reported that Baldwin was unaware that he had been handed a live gun during filming.

Court records released at the time showed the assistant director said 'cold gun' just before the shooting took place, not knowing the prop gun was loaded with live rounds, according to a search warrant filed in a Santa Fe court.

As a result of the discharge, Hutchins was killed and the film's director Joel Souza was injured.

Baldwin claimed he 'didn't pull the trigger', telling Stephanopoulos that the gun inexplicably went off after he picked it up.

Baldwin said: "I think back, I think, 'What could I have done?'.

"The trigger wasn't pulled, I didn't pull the trigger. I would never point a gun at anyone at point a trigger at them, never."

He added: "Someone put a live bullet in the gun - a bullet that wasn't even supposed to be on the property."
