Alec Baldwin threatened to break a comedian’s neck and shove a camera up his ass for heckling him over the 2021 “Rust” shooting.
Jason Scoop — who was impersonating President Trump in the wild video posted to social media Monday — began to taunt the actor as he unloaded luggage from the back of an SUV in front of his New York City home.
“Alec, it’s your favorite president!” Scoop, sporting a navy blue suit and blond wig, shouted at Baldwin — famous for portraying Trump on “Saturday Night Live.”
“Look, Alec, I will offer you a total pardon ’cause I wanna be friends, right? I wanna be friends. I will give you a total pardon for murdering that woman if you kiss the ring,” Scoop said, mimicking POTUS.
Scoop then held up a comically large ring and repeatedly instructed Baldwin, 66, to “kiss” it.
“Look at Alec Baldwin, right? He did that impersonation of me. It was not too hot, not too good. But look, we’re back in office. You [the Democrats] lost. Kamala [Harris] lost. She’s somewhere getting intoxicated,” Scoop said as Baldwin paid him no mind.
“Well, Alec, if you don’t want that pardon for murdering that woman in cold blood — you can call it first-degree, you can call if whatever you want, but it was not good. She’s looking down on me right now, smiling, happy. ‘Thank you for confronting the man who took me out, who killed me.’”
Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was accidentally shot and killed in October 2021 after a prop gun Baldwin was holding went off on the set of the Western movie “Rust.”
Warning explicit content:
He was charged with involuntary manslaughter but pleaded not guilty, insisting he did not pull the trigger and was unaware the gun was loaded with real ammunition.
Though his case was dismissed in July 2024, he still suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder related to the tragic incident.
Baldwin was silent for the majority of Scoop’s taunting but eventually stopped what he was doing and got up in the funnyman’s face.
“Look at me. I want you to look at me,” the “Departed” star said.
“You got a camera on me here? You realize my kids live in this building? But I want you to know something. I want you to be real careful. If this camera wasn’t here, I’d snap your f–king neck in half and break your f–king neck right here. You know that, don’t you?”
The father of eight then got back to tending to his belongings, but Scoop didn’t break character.
“OK, Alec Baldwin. All right, Alec Baldwin. Alec Baldwin, ladies and gentlemen! Class act! Believe me,” Scoop exclaimed to the camera as the subject of his torment turned back around.
“I want you to get out of here,” Baldwin demanded multiple times, threatening to “shove that camera up [Scoop’s] ass.”
A rep for Baldwin did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.
