Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins died and director Joel Souza was injured in October, when Mr Baldwin was rehearsing drawing a prop gun.

Mr Baldwin, 63, has insisted he "didn't pull the trigger".

The warrant was issued by a Sante Fe court in New Mexico - the state where Rust was being filmed.

It says "there may be evidence on the phone" that could be "material and relevant to this investigation".

Investigators asked to confiscate Mr Baldwin's Apple iPhone that is "believed to be in his possession".

They wanted to look at text messages, emails, web browser history and other information stored on the phone.

It comes two weeks after the star gave his first TV interview about the incident, in which he said he did not pull the trigger, but the gun went off anyway.

Leonardo DiCaprio is in final talks to play religious cult leader Jim Jones in MGM’s upcoming feature film.

Written by “Venom” scribe Scott Rosenberg, “Jim Jones” will also have DiCaprio on board as producer.

According to Deadline, the Oscar-winner will back the project via his Appian Way company alongside Jennifer Davisson.

Jim Jones was the leader of the Peoples Temple religious group, founded in Indianapolis in 1955. He was behind the November 1978 mass suicide at his Jonestown settlement that took more than 900 lives, including 304 children.

The head of the Cannes Film Festival took a swipe at rival events on Monday, saying some had been too quick to allow movies made by streaming giants into their main competitions without applying strict rules, and had harmed cinema as a result.

Platforms like Netflix have thrived during the COVID-19 pandemic and picked up several top film awards, while studios and cinemas have struggled as coronavirus restrictions closed movie theatres and pushed more viewers online.

Cannes, the world's biggest cinema showcase which kicks off on the French Riviera on Tuesday, has long been at odds with streaming companies, insisting on a theatrical release in France for any film selected to compete for its top film award.
