“Disclosure Day” Trailer – Steven Spielberg’s new alien movie
The world faces an alien presence in Steven Spielberg’s sci-fi film Disclosure Day, starring Emily Blunt, Colin Firth, and Josh O’Connor.
LAS VEGAS – Director Steven Spielberg has confirmed that his new movie “Disclosure Day” will be about aliens, debuting new footage at Universal Studios’ presentation at CinemaCon in Las Vegas on April 15.
“Ever since I was little, I’ve been interested in what happens in the night sky,” he told the audience, saying the possibility of extraterrestrial life stimulates his creativity.
Spielberg’s return to the summer blockbuster will see Josh O’Connor’s Daniel Kellner fight alongside Emily Blunt and Colman Domingo to uncover the existence of extraterrestrial life. Connor and Blunt will play characters possessed by aliens. Colin Firth appears to be leading a shadow government organization tasked with keeping the alien presence a secret.
The creator of “Jaws” said the film is “much closer to truth than fiction.”
He said he was intrigued again, pointing to a 2017 New York Times report on the existence of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, returning to a subject he had explored in “ET” and “Close Encounters of the Third Kind.”
“I truly believe this film will answer questions and raise many questions,” Spielberg said.
The multiple Oscar winner said he is very protective of a film’s third act because young audiences use marketing materials to anticipate plot points in upcoming films.
“All you need from start to finish is your seat belt,” he said.
Domingo, who introduced and interviewed Spielberg, announced that the film Titan had won the Motion Picture Association of America 250 Award.
“Steven Spielberg defines what Americans think when they think about movies,” MPA President Charles Rivkin said at the awards ceremony.
In his acceptance speech, the Oscar winner told how he became obsessed with movies and made money by screening them for charity in his childhood home in Phoenix and “charging 12 cents for popcorn.”
“There’s nothing quite like sitting in the first three rows of a movie theater and watching Cecil B. DeMille’s epic in color in Technicolor,” Spielberg said.
He called on studios to expand their theatrical slots for movies and reduce their reliance on already produced intellectual property. “If all we’re making is big name brand IP, we’re going to run out of gas, and we’re going to run out of gas quickly,” he added.
