A24 released a brief teaser and new poster for Primetime, its upcoming film about Chris Hansen’s 2000s To Catch a Predator franchise.
Robert Pattinson leads the film as Hansen, with Lance Oppenheim directing the project that also features Phoebe Bridgers in her first acting role in front of the camera.
Bridgers has appeared in film before only as herself, making a cameo in Jane Schoenbrun’s 2024 movie I Saw the TV Glow.
Primetime still has no release date in the latest announcement, though an earlier report described the A24 title as targeting Fall 2026.

Will 'Primetime' portray Chris Hansen as a righteous crusader or the architect of a ratings-driven tragedy?
