After several years of working in near-obscurity, Hanson found success with The Hand That Rocks the Cradle and The River Wild. His next film, L.A.

Hanson has two films on the way: Lucky You (2006 film), starring Eric Bana and Drew Barrymore, and The Crimson Petal and White, about a young prostitute who finds herself in a position of power when she becomes the mistress of a powerful patriarch.
