Steven Spielberg releases new alien film “Disclosure Day”

Director Steven Spielberg has unveiled his latest science‑fiction movie, “Disclosure Day,” featuring Emily Blunt as Kansas City meteorologist Margaret Fairchild, who begins speaking a foreign language on live TV and develops psychic abilities after an alien encounter. Josh O’Connor co‑stars as cybersecurity expert Daniel Keller, who steals top‑secret technology and goes on the run with his girlfriend, played by Eve Hewson. The plot involves a covert government agency, Wardex, led by Colin Firth’s CEO Noah Scanlon, which launches a manhunt for the two protagonists.

During the film’s promotion, Spielberg also answered long‑standing fan questions about his 1982 classic “E.T. the Extra‑Terrestrial,” explaining why the alien had to leave Earth and confirming that Elliott never saw E.T. again, though he dreamed of him. The remarks highlight Spielberg’s enduring fascination with extraterrestrial life and provide context for his new venture on the 2026 movie schedule.
