Alec Baldwin is one of the most respected and talented actors in the film industry. He has made a name for himself through projects like Beetlejuice, The Boss Baby, Pearl Harbor, and Mission: Impossible – Fallout, through which, he has established himself as a truly exceptional actor. He has also been nominated for an Academy Award in the past, in the category of Best Supporting Actor, for his work in the 2003 film, The Cooler.
The actor entered the media spotlight in the worst possible way recently, after he accidentally, fatally shot cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, on the set of the Rust when a live round was discharged from a revolver used as a prop. Though the general feelings that the media had towards him changed after this incident, the majority of it was sympathy for what happened to him. After this incident, he needed some time off from the public eye. The actor also seems to have new business operations in mind.
Alec Baldwin’s Family Changed His Life
During an interview with the Lets Talk Off Camera podcast, with Kelly Ripa, Alec Baldwin talked in great detail about his family, and how much he deeply cares about them. He talked about the impact that they have had on his life, sports negative and positive. The actor alongside his wife, Hilaria Baldwin have quite a lot of children together, those being Carmen, Rafael, Leonardo, Romeo, Eduardo, Lucia, Ilaria, and Ireland. Having such a large family is something that is no easy task for anyone, and he mentioned exactly this.
“Everything’s about my family. I have really tried in the last several years, once we had five and then six, and then seven kids. I can’t go anywhere for any length of time,” Alec says. “In the old days I’d jump on a plane and go to L.A… It was easy to pick up and go… I need 12 plane tickets — nannies, kids, my wife, I need, like, 11. They don’t even have 11 seats in the business class section of the plane.”
He stated that as his family grew, he started to realize that he could not go anywhere for an extended period of time. The reason for this is he cannot bring his entire family with him, due to the huge number of people. Earlier, he could simply get up and go wherever he wanted, as he had no obligations or responsibilities. Now, however, he cannot do the same.
Alec Baldwin Wants To Follow In The Steps of The Kardashians?
Alec Baldwin, then mentioned that this has really limited his options for what he can do and the jobs he can take. he stated that he has been looking into trying to make a reality show about their unique situation. He, of course, won’t be the first celebrity to create a reality television series based on their real life, with the most famous being Keeping Up with the Kardashians, based on the lives of Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Kylie Jenner, and their entire family.
“Everything I do is filtered through the idea of my family.” He said, “Jobs I take, jobs I don’t take. Somebody said, a famous TV producer who I won’t name, said to me, ‘Come do a series with me in Vancouver.’ And I was like, ‘I’m not going to Vancouver for five months. That’s not happening,'” he says. “So everything we did and then shows we have considered and pitches we’ve heard, and even one or two pitches we’ve made about our family and that reality show has all been so we could stay home and just work from home. I’m desperate to try to work from New York.”
He stated that this venture of his is also something he’s finding difficult to achieve because of his family situation. he mentioned that all of the pitches that he has made himself for a project like this, the one offered to him, and options that they have considered, would all come down to the fact that the show would be based on the concept of them being home and working from home. He added that he was desperate to move to New York and work from there.
