Wait, What?! Chris Hansen Couldn’t Even See The Movie Where Robert Pattinson Plays HIM?!
- Chris Hansen, denied a sneak peek of his own movie!
- Robert Pattinson is playing the veteran journalist.
- A deal breaker stopped the screening.
Seriously, you won’t believe what we just heard! Chris Hansen. Yes, THAT Chris Hansen. The guy from ‘To Catch a Predator’ fame. Well, he just had a super wild day.
He went to the offices of A24. You know A24! They’re the indie darlings behind so many cool, sometimes spooky, films. He was there for a very special screening.
The movie is called “Primetime.” And guess what? Robert Pattinson, our beloved ‘Twilight’ heartthrob and ‘Batman’ star, plays Chris Hansen in it! How absolutely mind-blowing is that?
But here’s the kicker. Chris Hansen, the actual person, didn’t get to see it. Nope. He left without watching a single scene.
Apparently, the 66-year-old veteran journalist refused to sign away his rights. What rights, exactly? We’re scratching our heads too! It put a stop to his sneak peek before the film even heads to the Venice Film Festival.
Imagine that. Your life, your story, turned into a film. Especially with A24’s signature, often intense, visual aesthetic. We can only guess what kind of vibe it gives off. Speaking of unique stories, Oscar Nominee Diane Warren Just Adopted a Tiny Pig Found On the Street!
The film is by Lance Oppenheim. It’s definitely going to be a hot topic at Venice. Everyone will be talking about Rob playing Chris Hansen.
This whole situation just adds a layer of mystery, doesn’t it? It makes us even more curious to see “Primetime.” What exactly did they want him to sign? Speaking of people standing their ground, remember when Ariana Grande Told Trump to Back Off Her Music for Anti-Trans Videos?
Our Take
This is such a bummer for Chris Hansen. To have your life put on screen, especially by someone as big as Robert Pattinson, and then not get to witness it? That’s rough.
We can only imagine the conversations that went down. It makes us wonder what the movie’s angle is. And how Rob Pattinson’s portrayal looks.
It definitely builds hype, though. Now we REALLY want to see it! And speaking of movies tackling big stories, Woah! Jaafar Jackson Says New ‘Michael’ Movie Will Tackle Tough Allegations Head-On!
