The Hollywood community is still reeling after the death of 42-year-old director of photography Halyna Hutchins on the New Mexico set of Rust on Thursday.

Sadly, Hutchins' death is the latest in a long line of tragedies on the sets of movies and TV shows throughout the years, which we'll examine below.
