Robert Pattinson is Chris Hansen in 'Primetime' Thriller Full Trailer

"This could be our greatest segment yet." ? A24 has debuted the main official trailer for Primetime, the chilling new cinematic take on the unsettling TV news program "To Catch a Predator" attempting to uncover & incriminate pedophiles. From director Lance Oppenheim (of Some Kind of Heaven and "Ren Fair"), this new film stars Robert Pattinson as the host Chris Hansen, who seems to have his own motives for this series. In 2006, "To Catch a Predator" host Chris Hansen sets out to make television history. Just last year there was a documentary film titled Predators (watch the trailer) from Sundance, which took a very critical look at the show, the host Chris Hansen, and what was really going on behind the scenes, and whether it was actually helping stop predators or making things worse. This film seems to be inspired by the revelations in that doc, telling the story of how Hansen created this show for his own smug glory. Along with Pattinson, Primetime stars Merritt Wever, Skyler Gisondo, Matthew Maher, Phoebe Bridgers, and Bokeem Woodbine as a cop. This is premiering at the 2026 Venice Film Festival next month before opening in US theaters this fall. "What would've happened if I wasn't here...?" Looks dark and intense! And hopefully good. // Continue Reading ›
