Chris Hansen Walks Out of Primetime Screening Over NDA Dispute

Chris Hansen Walks Out of Primetime Screening Over NDA DisputeNext

Chris Hansen, known for hosting To Catch a Predator, left a private screening of the upcoming film Primetime, starring Robert Pattinson, after refusing to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) he found restrictive. Hansen said the NDA would require him to give up certain rights, which he found unusual for his journalism experience. The film, directed by Lance Oppenheim, dramatizes the period when To Catch a Predator became a primetime show. A24, the studio, stated the NDA was standard for unreleased films and denied unusual demands.
