In the sit-down with US network ABC, Mr Baldwin said he had 'no idea' how a live round got into the prop.
"Someone put a live bullet in the gun, which wasn't even supposed to be on the property."
He broke down in tears while paying tribute to Ms Hutchins and said she was 'admired by everyone'.
He said the incident doesn't feel real and agreed it was the worst thing that ever happened to him.
The interview will air in the US tonight.
