I went all the way over there. \u2026 But who\u2019s going to sign something like that?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHe added that it was a \u201cvery restrictive agreement\u201d and that he \u201chad never seen anything quite like it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> learned that Hansen was asked to sign a standard NDA a week in advance that all preview audiences must sign in order to watch an unreleased A24 film. It\u2019s mostly to prevent spoilers and protect the studio\u2019s IP.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHansen noted to Jesse Watters that his \u201clawyers had already seen\u201d the NDA before he arrived at A24\u2019s offices.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhen asked by the host what A24 might be worried about, the veteran journalist replied, \u201cI don\u2019t know! I haven\u2019t seen the film. If you look at the trailer, obviously it\u2019s a very dramatized version. They had told me that it\u2019s fictionalized in many aspects. I know other people have seen it who didn\u2019t sign an NDA, and yet they wanted me to sign it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=5703\">\u2018Lanterns\u2019 EP Damon Lindelof Weighs In on 2026\u2019s Adaptation Wars: \u201cShouldn\u2019t We Be Beyond This by Now?\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<em>Primetime<\/em>, which stars Pattinson as the Dateline NBC correspondent, chronicles the intense production, ethical dilemmas and media sensationalism behind <em>To Catch a Predator<\/em>, which ran from 2004 to 2007.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tDuring an interview with podcaster Annie Elise last week, Hansen questioned \u201cHollywood\u2019s motive\u201d behind the movie directed by Lance Oppenheim, but refused to judge the film until he\u2019s seen it.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cA couple months ago, they came and said, \u2018Hey look, we\u2019re doing this, we\u2019d like you to have some sort of consideration in terms of helping us with this,&#8217;\u201d he said.
