Teaser drops for Primetime, Robert Pattinson plays Chris Hansen
A24 released the first teaser for Lance Oppenheim's Primetime, with Robert Pattinson portraying To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen. The film, also starring Merritt Wever, Skyler Gisondo, and Phoebe Bridgers, centers on Hansen's 2006 To Catch a Predator operation and is scheduled to open in theaters this fall. Pattinson's casting and A24's backing signal a high-profile, dramatized look at television ethics and the spectacle of true-crime programming.
The new teaser trailer for “Primetime,” A24’s upcoming film that stars Robert Pattinson as Chris Hansen of “To Catch a Predator,” is out
Jon Sternfeld 66That VOICE! I fucking love how weird Pattinson has become.
Stone Cold Jane Austen52For as much as people mock the twilight franchise, I’m happy it exists because it gave Pattz enough fuck-you money to do whatever weird projects he wants and we are all blessed for it
bbuff.bsky.social17I’m lowkey mad the trailer didn’t end with him saying “why don’t you have a seat.”
John Henderson12This is by the same director, Lance Oppenheim, that did the Ren Faire miniseries for HBO. He's done nothing but documentaries before now. This is his first fictionalized feature. And that's one of the smartest film trailers I can remember seeing.
Wax Witch4say less, this looks good
Hiegold3Please tell me: "featuring Christopher Walken as Keith Morrison"
TruthIsImTired3Oh this may be good! Hansen enjoys his job
thoughtnest.bsky.social2Why the hell does this need a movie? 🤔

Uncle Silver6I calls him Chris Hansome.
Abel6I feel like there’s a joke somewhere where you have him as Chris Hanson showing up when Jacob from the twilight movies imprints that baby
Graydon Webb4It looks like Robert Pattinson
Brian E2Can't wait for them to get to the part where in 2007 a prosecutor in Texas killed himself as Chris and the camera crew entered his house. The estate of the deceased sued for $105 million, and the case was settled out of court. To Catch a Predator was cancelled in 2008, not long after the incident.
