Alec Baldwin has extremely fierce Twitter row with producer over underage actress claims

Alec Baldwin has had an extremely angry Twitter spat with Hollywood producer Dana Brunetti over claims that he was unaware of starring opposite an underage actress. In Baldwin’s new memoir, the Beetlejuice actor denies that he knew Nikki Reed was just 16 when they played lovers in 2006’s Mini’s First Time.

“I was forty-seven, and it never occurred to me to ask how old Nikki Reed was. When I found out, just as we finished, that she was seventeen, I flipped out on the producers, who had told me something different,” Baldwin wrote in the memoir.

Brunetti has now responded to Baldwin’s claims in a series of angry tweets, in which things got very personal between the pair:

(1) My first indie film was Mini's starring @AlecBaldwin who knew @NikkiReed_I_Am was 16 (not 17) and he didn't mind https://t.co/aZ3KyeIiyC

Name something I've done shady or unethical, Alec. You lied, face it, admit it and move on. I'm not afraid of bullies like you.

If required, I'm sure there is one. But really, are you going to continue to deny that you didn't know she was 16?? I'll bury you.

You're a fool. She just came off a movie called 13!! Do I need to bring in the other crew to vouch that you knew?? @NickGuthe wanna weigh in

The row went on and on as things got more heated, with the pair now throwing childish insults at each other:

More lies. No wonder Kim divorced you.

The problem with Hollywood is they cower to blowhard bullies like @ABFalecbaldwin. He can't handle when someone like me stands up to him.

So there you have it, two Hollywood giants at each other’s throats. I don’t think they realise that April Fools’ Day was on Saturday! Still, the claims are quite serious and the actress in the middle of things, has yet to comment on the matter. We’ll keep you informed of any updates.
