Why Chris Hansen walked out of A24's Primetime screening -

Chris Hansen was told to take a seat but walked out of A24’s private screening of his new film, *Primetime*, which is based on his hidden-camera series. Hansen refused to sign a legal agreement he claimed was overly restrictive, covering his name, image, brand, and potential legal rights from the film. He said his lawyers advised against signing it. A source close to A24 disputed this, stating it was a standard non-disclosure agreement for preview audiences. Hansen questioned why the studio approached him only after production was complete, given *Primetime* draws heavily from his career. The film, marketed as inspired by true events rather than a direct biopic, premieres in Venice before a September 25 cinema release. Hansen may have to watch it by buying a ticket.
