supports HTML5 videoAlec Baldwin has said his driver’s car was stolen after he landed in the UK.The Hollywood actor, 63, is reportedly working on a film in Hampshire, which is his first project since the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.The comedian is thought to be filming air disaster thriller 97 Minutes close to Alton, Hampshire, and has shared a series of videos that appear to be taken on the town’s high street.Directed by Timo Vuorensola, the film follows a hijacked aircraft set to fall from the sky in 97 minutes when its fuel runs out.In a video posted over the weekend, Baldwin told his 2.4million Instagram followers: ‘I’m going to go ahead and record this because I think it’s funny.‘I get to the airport and I get through immigration and they get my bags and I’m heading to the car that’s going to drive me to where I’m going.‘And the driver says, “I’m going to go to the car park and I’ll be back straight away.”‘Baldwin said he called the hire company after waiting for 20 minutes – only to discover the driver’s car had been taken.Laughing, the actor added: ‘Anyway, I hope you found your car.’In a second video, apparently recorded as he walked down Alton High Street, Baldwin mused about the ‘little town.’He recalled how he likes to ‘come to places like this, whenever I travel away from home, away from the US,’ saying he wonders what it’s like to live or grow up there.‘I grew up in a pretty suburban town – a pretty big town but it was very suburban – on Long Island,’ he shared.‘It just seems different because it’s foreign to me. People, kids.
