BIO
Baldwin made his Broadway debut in Loot (1986) and was later nominated for the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play for his portrayal of Stanley Kowalski in A Streetcar Named Desire (1992). He returned to Broadway in Twentieth Century (2004) and Orphans (2013). He recently appeared in a staged reading of the play HOLD ON TO ME DARLING at The Sanctuary at St. Paul & St. Andrew. He will soon join a reading of Outcasts, five one-act plays by John Patrick Shanley.
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 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). From 2017 to 2021, he voiced the titular role in The Boss Baby film franchise. From 1999 to 2003, he narrated the American dubbed stories for seasons 5 and 6 of Thomas & Friends.
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. Baldwin has hosted the NBC sketch series Saturday Night Live a record 17 times since 1990. There he earned critical acclaim for his portrayal of Donald Trump on the show, a role that won him his third Primetime Emmy in 2017 and nominations in 2018 and 2021.
In 2024, he starred in the Western film Rust, which gained media attention for a shooting incident in 2021, wherein cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was accidentally killed when a live round was discharged from a prop revolver that Baldwin was using. Baldwin, his wife Hilaria, and their seven children are the focus of the TLC reality series The Baldwins.
He hosted the Academy Awards in 2010 and the game show Match Game from 2016 to 2021.
