Alec has been 'struggling' to find work in Hollywood after the 2021 'Rust' fatal on-set shooting of Halyna Hutchins.
Since the fatal on-set shooting, sources claimed Alec has found it "impossible" to land a decent gig – and was slammed over his comments about the Rust shooting case featured on his family's reality show.
Critics condemned Alec's "crocodile tears" as he broke down while discussing the pressure he felt while dealing with the case.
A source told us at the time: "Using the tragedy to promote his new reality show seems like a low blow. It's offensive and will probably backfire on him, his kids and his wife."
Meanwhile, Alec seemingly skirted accountability in his recent car accident, which he blamed on "a garbage truck the size of a whale" he was allegedly attempting to avoid hitting.
