Alec Baldwin uses a stand-in for `30 Rock`

Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin may have won an Emmy award for his role in the superhit series `30 Rock` but he reportedly uses a body double for many scenes as he is too busy to shoot himself.

Washington: Hollywood actor Alec Baldwin may have won an Emmy award for his role in the superhit series `30 Rock` but he reportedly uses a body double for many scenes as he is too busy to shoot himself.
The `Departed` star insists on only working three days a week so he can travel back to Los Angeles to spend time with his daughter Ireland, so makers use a stand-in when he is not
there, reported Fox News online. The show`s creator and star Tina Fey has built rehearsals and scenes around Alec`s absence, using a replacement during filming. "He does not have the desire to be tied to a set six or seven days a week, and Tina was willing to work it so that he could get everything he wanted. Alec can pretty much do anything he wants at `30 Rock`," said an on-set source. "Tina saves Alec`s speaking lines for his arrival on set, but everything else is shot with a stand-in," the source added. For big stars like Baldwin, it is not unusual to have stand-in for some rehearsals and scene blocking, but they are rarely used during actual filming. "Those (body double takes) make it into the final cut of the show. There are many back shots and side shots that don`t show Alec`s face, because it is his stand-in on Alec`s days off," said the insider. Bureau Report
