Disclosure Day: first trailer for Steven Spielberg's star-studded UFO movie
"Disclosure Day, written by Jurassic Park's David Koepp based on a Spielberg story, sees a starry cast deal with the discovery of aliens. Why would he make such a vast universe yet save it only for us?' Elizabeth Marvel's character says at the end of the teaser. The film stars Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Colman Domingo, Eve Hewson and Wyatt Russell."
"People have a right to know the truth, it belongs to 7 billion people, O'Connor's character says. It marks Spielberg's first film since 2022's semi-autobiographical drama The Fabelmans, which gained seven Oscar nominations. It also returns him to the world of aliens, previously explored in films such as War of the Worlds, ET and Close Encounters of the Third Kind."
"Earlier this year, Koepp called the film a very emotional experience. I finished reading the script and I bawled, Domingo said earlier this year. I thought it was one of the most beautiful scripts about our humanity. I think it was just the most beautiful film about our humanity, and I literally cried because Steven Spielberg believes in the possibility of the human beings we could be.."
Disclosure Day, written by David Koepp from a Spielberg story, follows characters confronting the discovery of aliens and explores questions about humanity.
