Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin may be re-charged over the shooting of his colleague on the movie set Rust.  

Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was killed during rehearsal in 2021, after the gun Baldwin was handling went off.  

US correspondent Mitch McCann told Kate Hawkesby that special prosecutors dropped the involuntary manslaughter charges five months ago, because the gun might have been modified and malfunctioned. 

He says since then, they've reportedly received new analysis of the weapon, which could lead to new charges in the coming weeks.  

Baldwin's lawyers are calling this a misguided prosecution.
