BIO

Alex Baldwin is an American actor. He is known for his leading and supporting roles in a variety of genres, from comedy to drama, and has received numerous accolades including three Primetime Emmy Awards, three Golden Globe Awards and eight Screen Actors Guild Awards as well as nominations for an Academy Award, a BAFTA Award, and Tony Award.



Baldwin's film career began with a string of roles in 1988 in films such as Beetlejuice, Working Girl and Married to the Mob before playing Jack Ryan in The Hunt for Red October (1990). He was Oscar-nominated for playing a casino manager in The Cooler (2003) and the BAFTA-nominated for playing a charming but devious ex-husband in It's Complicated (2010). He has acted in films such as Glengarry Glen Ross (1992), The Royal Tenenbaums (2001), Along Came Polly (2004), The Aviator (2004), The Departed (2006), and Blue Jasmine (2013) as well as two Mission: Impossible films Rogue Nation (2015) and Fallout (2018). He voiced the titular role in The Boss Baby film franchise.

From 2006 to 2013, Baldwin received critical acclaim starring alongside Tina Fey as Jack Donaghy on the NBC sitcom 30 Rock, winning two Primetime Emmy Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, and seven Screen Actors Guild Awards for Best Actor in a comedy series, making him the male performer with the most SAG Awards in history. Baldwin has received critical acclaim for his portrayal of Donald Trump on the NBC sketch series Saturday Night Live, a role that won him his third Primetime Emmy in 2017. He was nominated again in 2018 and 2021.

Baldwin made his Broadway debut in Loot (1986). He portrayed Stanley Kowalski in the 1992 production of A Streetcar Named Desire for which he earned a nomination for the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play. He returned to Broadway in Twentieth Century (2004) and Orphans (2013). He hosted the 82nd Academy Awards in 2010. He is also a columnist for The Huffington Post. He was the host of Match Game from 2016 until 2021.

On October 22, 2021, while on the Rust film set, Baldwin discharged a revolver used as a prop, unaware that it had been improperly loaded with live ammunition, resulting in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. In a 2023 trial he was charged with involuntary manslaughter in a case which was ultimately dropped. He was tried again in 2024 but the case was dismissed with prejudice.

Previews: DIETRICH at Revolution Stage Company
by Kay Kudukis - Feb 18, 2025

DIETRICH, written by Willard Manus, starring Cindy Marinangel, Chicago Second City Conservatory graduate, directed by Glenda Morgan Brown and produced by Sea Angel Productions., LLC is based on a true story. Set in May 1960, the play takes place when the actress returned to the Berlin stage for the first time since fleeing the Hitler regime in the 1930’s. Inside her dressing room at the Tatania-Palast Theater, Dietrich weighs whether to go through with the live performance despite threats on her life by Nazi sympathizers who resented her for having spent much of World War II entertaining American soldiers on the front lines. To them, Dietrich is a turncoat; a traitor who deserves to be shot and killed on stage.
