Steven Spielberg feels 'fascinated with things that cannot be explained'
Spielberg promotes Disclosure Day, a film exploring why alien life knowledge might be hidden, affirming his belief in extraterrestrials based on lifelong curiosity.
- Yesterday, Steven Spielberg affirmed in a Universal Pictures behind‑the‑scenes video that he is convinced 'there is life off this planet' and called this belief a 'guarantee' from childhood curiosity.
- Growing up Spielberg said he has always been fascinated with things that cannot be explained and has made many films about them, returning to sci-fi with Disclosure Day after Ready Player One in 2018.
- Disclosure Day opens June 12, 2026, starring Josh O'Connor, Emily Blunt, and Colman Domingo, with trailers and a Super Bowl commercial revealing aliens and a flying saucer.
- The director posed 'And if someone knows we're not alone, why have we not been told?' while Spielberg recently earned EGOT status after winning his first Grammy earlier this month.
- Public fascination has reached a 'critical mass', Spielberg, 79-year-old director, says, with audience expectations and unanswered narrative threads leaving far more questions than answers.
