During his conversation with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos earlier this month, Alec insisted he never pulled the trigger on the prop gun that also injured the film's director, Joel Souza.

While tearing up about the situation, the Motherless Brooklyn star maintained he wasn't negligent during the situation and that live bullets should have never been on the set in the first place.
