Robert Pattinson’s ‘Primetime’ Director Has a Challenge for Chris Hansen
Hansen said the film felt detached from reality and promised a fuller reaction later on his podcast and YouTube channel.
- On Thursday, former 'To Catch a Predator' host Chris Hansen watched 'Primetime,' the film starring Robert Pattinson as a fictionalized version of himself.
- Filmmakers did not consult Hansen during production, and he declined an advance screening after being asked to sign an unusually restrictive non-disclosure agreement with A24.
- Calling the film 'exploitative and predatory,' Hansen criticized the portrayal as 'detached from reality' and 'an insult to the thousands of men and women who work hard every day to protect children.'
- In an 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em' move, Hansen purchased advertisement time for TruBlu, his true-crime streaming service, to run before screenings while promising a detailed review on his podcast.
- Director Lance Oppenheim, who also released the Elizabeth Holmes documentary 'You Can See Everything' this fall, previously stated he was eager for Hansen to watch the film.
