Robert Pattinson is starring as Chris Hansen in the new psychological thriller “Primetime,” a film reimagining the controversial 2000s show “To Catch a Predator” — but Hansen himself is furious, claiming the movie was made without his consent and that he was pressured to sign away his rights just to see a screening. The film, premiering at Venice and hitting theaters September 25 with a star-studded cast including Merritt Wever, Bokeem Woodbine, and Phoebe Bridgers’ acting debut, has sparked legal and ethical debates over portraying real-life figures involved in sensitive investigations — especially as Hansen continues his own work through his ongoing “Takedown” series.
