Fox Nation “Who is Alec Baldwin” delves into the complex actor’s life and career.

Hosted by Fox News Channel’s Brian Kilmeade, the special premiered Monday night on the network’s digital subscription platform and features interviews with celebrity life coach Vivace Maxvictor, the Wall Street Journal film critic Kyle Smith, film critic Christian Toto and The Federalist journalist Emily Jashinsky

Pundits reminded viewers that Baldwin wasn’t an overnight superstar, but he wooed his first – then ex – wife, Kim Basinger, who he married in 1993. They starred together in the 1991 romantic comedy “The Marrying Man.”

Jashinsky recalled how the couple had been criticized in the press for being “very difficult to work with”.

But that would be nothing compared to Future Baldwin Scandalsincluding leaked voicemail in 2007, the ‘Beetlejuice’ actor left behind his 11-year-old daughter, Ireland, in which he called her a “rude, thoughtless little pig”.

“He has no self-regulation and no emotional self-control and no ability to take care of other people’s thoughts and feelings,” Maxvictor said of the incident.

As reported on the show, ‘Glengarry Glen Ross’ and ‘Working Girl’ star Baldwin, 64, openly admitted he was contemplating suicide after the leaked audio became public.

“I spoke to a lot of professionals, who helped me,” he said. said Playboy. “If I committed suicide, they [Basinger’s side] would have considered that a victory. Destroying me was their stated goal.

Although unpleasant to hear, the ‘Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation’ actor’s career in Hollywood was unaffected after the call.

“He was a superstar on ’30 Rock.’ Are you going to fire him from this show?” Toto posed.

“I’m sure NBC Studios could think about it, maybe they haven’t thought about it, but you have a winning show at the very beginning of its run and it was essential to the success of the chemistry of the formula in game. If you give it up – and Hollywood is often very pragmatic and they said no,” he concluded.

Last April, 68-year-old Basinger opened up about her former marriage on “Red Table Talk,” telling Jada Pinkett Smith and her family that Baldwin wasn’t always “emotionally and mentally available” to face serious problems concerning Ireland.

However, no previous child-rearing issues apparently stopped Baldwin from expanding his line. He and his wife Hilaria, 38, currently have six children – with one more on the way.

Of course, documentary pundits also discuss the fatal shooting incident on the set of “Rust” in October 2021 when Baldwin accidentally shot and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins with a supposedly empty prop gun.

The film is now on hold, although in May the producers said they were “confident” the project could be carried out.
