Robert Pattinson as Chris Hansen? The Real Deal Reacts!
- Chris Hansen shares his honest thoughts on Robert Pattinson’s impression.
- Hansen’s family actually liked it!
- What kind of visual vibe can we expect from A24’s ‘Primetime’?
We just heard something pretty wild!
Robert Pattinson, yep, that Robert Pattinson, is playing Chris Hansen in a new A24 drama-thriller called “Primetime.” Wild, right? The movie is all about Hansen’s time hosting Dateline NBC’s “To Catch a Predator.”
So, what does the real Chris Hansen think? He actually watched RPattz’s impression of him. He said Pattinson definitely practiced. A lot!
Hansen thought it was “overly dramatic.” A bit much. But, he also admitted it was a “pretty good imitation.” That’s a big compliment coming from the man himself!
And get this – Hansen’s own family weighed in. His wife and kids apparently think Robert’s performance is a “pretty good imitation” too. Imagine watching a movie where a huge star plays your dad! It’s such a unique vibe.
We’re curious about the whole visual style A24 will bring to this. Knowing their work, like the intense feel of “Downstate”, we expect it to be dark and perhaps a little unsettling. The idea of RPattz transforming into such a distinct public figure already feels like a bold artistic choice.
This news reminds us of other surprising transformations. Remember when we learned Tom Hardy is Frankie Pulitzer Now?! Actors really dive deep into these roles.
Our Take
We think this is fascinating. Robert Pattinson always picks interesting projects. And getting the real Chris Hansen’s seal of approval (mostly!) is huge. We can’t wait to see the intense aesthetic of this film and how Pattinson brings that familiar, serious host energy to life on screen. This movie definitely has our attention!
