Baldwin grimaced on the Blind set after his vision-impaired character was run down by a New York City cabbie. His suavely dressed character, who was just lifted up from the slick street where his cane remains, was gripping onto a passerby and the driver. While Baldwin was filmed leaning on the taxi and lying down in front of the wheels, a stunt man was called in to take the gentle hit from the car.

Blind, directed by Michael Mailer from a script John Buffalo Mailer adapted from Diane Fisher‘s novel, is slated to hit theaters sometime in 2016. Dylan McDermott and Viva Bianca will also star.
