Robert Pattinson stars in the new thriller Primetime, diving into the explosive legacy of Chris Hansen—the iconic TV journalist from To Catch a Predator. The film explores the show’s controversial sting operations, which exposed predators using hidden cameras and adult actors posing as minors, leading to thousands of arrests. But behind the headlines: ethical debates, a tragic Texas lawyer’s suicide during a raid, and a lawsuit settled out of court. After leaving NBC in 2013 after two decades, Hansen kept his true crime streak alive with Killer Instinct, a crowdfunded reboot of Predator, and later Crime Watch Daily. Now, he’s redefining the genre online—with a YouTube channel, podcast Have a Seat with Chris Hansen, and his gripping Predators I’ve Caught series, showing how true crime has evolved—and why Hansen remains a magnetic force in the space.
