Chris Hansen Says NDA Blocked Primetime Screening, Not a Rights Waiver

Deadline reports that Chris Hansen wasn’t refused for refusing to sign away his rights; he was turned away from a private Primetime screening because attendees must sign a standard NDA to prevent spoilers. A Deadline source clarifies the NDA is common for preview audiences, and Hansen’s earlier claim was contradicted by reports that fellow invitee Jesse Watters declined to sign and was denied entry. The film, directed by Lance Oppenheim and starring Robert Pattinson as Hansen, is set to premiere this year.

Hansen Won’t Sign Away Rights to See Pattinson’s Primetime at A24

Veteran investigator Chris Hansen says he refused an unusually restrictive NDA that would surrender his name, image and rights to his brand to obtain a private screening of Robert Pattinson’s A24 drama Primetime. He went to A24 for a 10 a.m. screening but left without seeing the film after pushing back on the paperwork, noting he has no financial stake in the movie. The project, inspired by Hansen’s Dateline work, premieres at the Venice Film Festival and opens in theaters Sept. 25; A24 did not comment.
