Alex Baldwin prepares for the release of his new family reality series Bewitched – but he’s not sure he did the best job possible during filming.

“I wasn’t much fun,” Baldwin, 66, told the Associated Press to the Bewitched firstnoting that he likes to have a real storyline in front of him. “Tell me what to do!” »

Bewitchedwhich will premiere on TLC in January, will document the life of Alec, his wife Hilaria Baldwin and their seven children — Carmen, 11, Rafael, 9, Leonardo, 8, Romeo, 6, Eduardo, 4, María, 3, and Ilaria, 2. (Alec’s daughter, 29 years old, Ireland Baldwinthat he shares with his ex-wife Kim Basinger, does not appear to be part of the series.)

In June, Hilaria, 40, and Alec announced they would be starring in their own reality show with their children.

“We invite you into our home to experience the ups and downs, the good, the bad, the wild and the crazy,” Alec said in his post. announcement on social networks at the time. “Home is the place we love to be the most.”

Shortly after revealing their new series, a source said Us every week that Hilaria had “I’ve been asked this for years” whether she would consider a reality show.

“They always notice that their living situation matches reality perfectly because they have so many children with great personalities. This is their chance to show the world what their daily lives are like,” the source explained, adding that the TLC series will focus on “all the chaos with the kids, the animals and their careers.”

The show came as a surprise to many, as Alec went on trial this summer after Rust director of photography Halyna Hutchins died in 2021 when she was shot with a prop gun he was holding on set. Alec denied pulling the trigger and claimed he did not know there was a bullet inside the chamber when he held the gun.

“The trigger was not pulled. I didn’t pull the trigger,” Baldwin said in a 2021 interview with ABC News. “I would never point a gun at someone and pull the trigger. Never. I have no idea (how a bullet got in there). Someone put a live bullet in a gun. A bullet that wasn’t even supposed to hit the property.

In July, the manslaughter charges against Alec were officially licensed.

“There are too many people who supported me to thank them just now,” Alec wrote via Instagram in July. “To all of you, you will never know how much I appreciate your kindness to my family.”
