Alec Baldwin could be heard threatening to 'snap' Donald Trump impersonator Jason Scoop's neck after he was heckled outside of his home this week.
In a clip shared by Scoop, Baldwin, 66, could be seen getting out of his car as the comedian, 31, approached him while dressed in a Trump wig.
Heckling Baldwin about the fatal Rust shooting that took the life of Halyna Hutchins, 42, the actor could be seen growing increasingly frustrated with Scoop over his comments.

After being approached by Scoop in his Trump costume, Baldwin appeared to say: "Now let me ask you a question. Do you realize my kids live in this building?
"If this camera wasn't here, I'd snap your f**king neck in half and break your f**king neck.
"You realize that, don't you?"
As the comedian continued, Baldwin could be seen walking to his apartment, adding: "I want you to get out of here.
"I'll take that camera and shove it up your a**."
Back in 2021, a prop gun the 66-year-old actor was holding discharged on the set of the Western movie Rust in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
The incident killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchin and injured director Joel Souza, 51.

Baldwin maintained he did not pull the trigger.
While the actor faced a charge of involuntary manslaughter, his trial was dismissed in July last year.
"There are too many people who have supported me to thank just now," Baldwin wrote on social media.
"To all of you, you will never know how much I appreciate your kindness toward my family."
A trailer for the Baldwin family reality TV show, titled The Baldwins, which premiered last week, sees both Baldwin and his wife, Hilaria, acknowledge the incident.
"A son lost his mum in the most unthinkable tragedy. This is never something to forget and we’re trying to parent through it," Hilaria says, before her husband replies: "Honestly, from the bottom of my soul, I don’t know where I’d be if I didn’t have you and these kids."
Sharing the premise of the series, the parents explained in a statement: "This series gives viewers a glimpse into our lives as a family - the good, bad, wild and everything in between. We hope viewers will connect with our experiences and the love we share.
"Filming the show has been an amazing journey, and we’re proud to have TLC as a partner in telling our story."
