Robert Pattinson Delights with Another Funny Little Voice in 'Primetime' Trailer

August 9, 2026Diego Herrera1 мин

The early 2000s television show "To Catch a Predator," which continues to be a source of internet memes, spawned a genre of online videos where individuals took it upon themselves to capture child predators. This piece of television history, unlikely to be produced today, propelled Chris Hansen into a primetime slot and established him as a prominent host of his era. Now, his story is making its way to the big screen with A24's "Primetime."

While Robert Pattinson embodies Hansen and delivers a compelling performance as the host, "Primetime" isn't a straightforward biopic. Instead, it chronicles Hansen's journey to television stardom through "To Catch a Predator," offering a behind-the-scenes look at the show's operations and its delicate balance between combating child molesters and producing sensational content.

The trailer reveals that the predators on the show were largely portrayed by actors. However, this doesn't seem to satisfy Hansen. Driven by a desire to boost ratings, he aims to capture a genuine predator. The film will explore the consequences of this pursuit when "Primetime" premieres in theaters on September 25th.
