Alex was seen in a variety of festive settings surrounded by cast and crew as he filmed scenes on Wednesday, with Christmas decorations on display across the set.
This week, Alec was spotted getting back to work as an actor, with pictures showing him reading reading through two film scripts in Italy after the fatal Rust accident last October. As well as Kid Santa, the actor is due to film Billie's Magic World in Italy in the coming weeks.
The films, which are being produced by Alec and his brother will shoot back to back, according to Variety.
Gianluca Curti, the chief of Italy's Minerva Pictures, told the site the Baldwin brothers will be in Rome for four weeks shooting the two movies' live action scenes.
Curti also said Alec's participation in the two films preceded the fatal shooting on the set of Rust.

In October 2021, the actor was holding a Colt .45 while preparing for a scene at a ranch near Santa Fe, New Mexico when his gun went off, killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounding the film's director, Joel Souza.
Alec said in a December interview with ABC News that he was pointing the gun at Hutchins at her instruction on the set of the Western when it went off without his pulling the trigger.
Charges haven't yet been filed in the ongoing criminal investigation by the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office.

The 38-year-old shared the news on her Instagram on Tuesday, posting a video of herself and Alec playing with their six children after sharing their happy news with their brood.
The announcement comes just five months after Alec's fatal shooting, something that Hilaria alluded to in her Instagram caption, which referred to their unborn child as a 'bright spot in their lives'.
'After many ups and downs over the past few years, we have an exciting up and a huge surprise: another Baldwinito is coming this fall,' Hilaria wrote.

Hilaria, who suffered two miscarriages before welcoming her fifth child, Edu, admitted that she didn't think anymore children were in her future, explaining that the news of her latest pregnancy came as something of a 'surprise' for the family.
'We were pretty sure our family was complete, and we're beyond happy with this surprise,' she continued, before saying of the video post: 'I’m sharing with you the moment we told the kids - as you can see, they are super excited!'
The post, which Alec also shared on his own Instagram account, went on to reference the 'uncertain times' that the Baldwins have faced - including, no doubt, the ongoing investigation into the on-set death of Hutchins last year.

'Our new baby is a very bright spot in our lives,' Hilaria - who announced earlier this month that she was taking a break from social media - wrote.
'A blessing and a gift during such uncertain times. I've missed you during my break from social media…I'm back and looking forward to continuing with you this wild journey that we call "life." Our love to you and your loved ones.'
Hilaria and Alec already share six children together: daughters María Lucía Victoria, 13 months, and Carmen Gabriela, eight, and sons Rafael Thomas, six, Leonardo Ángel Charles, five, Romeo Alejandro David, three, and Eduardo "Edu" Pao Lucas, 18 months.

Alec also has a daughter Ireland Baldwin, 26, with ex wife Kim Basinger.
Last year, Hilaria and Alec shocked their fans by announcing the arrival of their sixth child, Lucía, via surrogate just six months after the yoga guru gave birth to her fifth baby Edu following two miscarriages.
She shared her devastating news in April 2019, when she took to social media to document her miscarriage in a series of very candid photos and videos, the first of which showed her posing in her underwear, alongside a caption which read: 'I want to share with you that I am most likely experiencing a miscarriage.'

Hilaria went on to document subsequent doctors' appointments, and even shared selfies from her D&C procedure.
In November of that same year, she revealed that she'd had a second miscarriage, four months into her pregnancy, once again sharing the news on Instagram alongside an image of herself and daughter Carmen.
'We are very sad to share that today we learned that our baby passed away at 4 months,' she wrote. 'We also want you to know that even though we are not ok right now, we will be. We are so lucky with our 4 healthy babies - and we will never lose sight of this.
