Definite NOT in the film. Not even a frame of that scene. Thankfully.and the scene where the three actors lost their lives is in the film.

Correct. The Landis segment was the only original story used for the movie. And I guess the prologue and epilogues are technically new too.From what I heard the Morrow episode was not a remake though it may have been inspired by an episode ("A Quality of Mercy"?) The other three stories were definitely remakes.
Surprised that it is going to get finished as well.
Though isn’t that why film productions are insured?Maybe the backers feel they put too much money into the project to just shelve it.
That's what I've been thinking, but the insurance company would probably fight the claim arguing that the issue was caused by unsafe on-set practices rather than a true accident.Though isn’t that why film productions are insured?

Its mostly likely he'll take a plea to get out of what would be just an embarassing three years max in minimum security. That would probably mean community service and some higher fines.What happens next? Does Alec plea bargain, and a deal worked out? I think so- wouldn’t be a good look for him to plead not guilty to all charges.

Would Baldwin have any knowledge of how to "check" it? My perception is that most actors wouldn't know a loaded gun from a potato. I don't believe most of them have had any firearms training, though I could be wrong.With Baldwin, well, the primary thing they would likely charge him with negligence for is not checking the weapon again after it was handed to him.
I guess throws a kink in the finishing of the film. Not that it really matters at this point.

It all depends. If the prosecutor is looking to make a name for himself, he might want to take it to trial. Conversely, given the unique circumstances of this incident, Baldwin might want to take it to trial in hopes of getting a hung jury or even an acquittal.What happens next?

I have to imagine that procedures will change as a result of this tragedy; either the actors will be taught to check the weapons themselves, or the weapons expert will check the weapon in the actor's presence immediately before the actor takes possession of the weapon.Would Baldwin have any knowledge of how to "check" it?

I don't know that I'd find him guilty of a criminal act in his capacity as an actor, but I think I would definitely find him liable as a producer who didn't establish a safe working environment.And as a [co-]producer on the film, he should be accountable for any safety issues on the set, and as such, should know what they are.
