Steven Spielberg<\/a> is back in action with a new movie, “Disclosure Day.”<\/p>\n Has the legendary director drawn inspiration from the Midwest?<\/p>\n A plot synopsis for\u00a0Disclosure Day\u00a0hasn’t been released, with the studio describing it only as a \u201cnew original event film\u201d and listing the genre as \u201cthriller.\u201d The first look at the film, unveiled Tuesday, Dec. 16, offers few details but\u00a0appears to indicate it is about the existence of some sort of alien life being revealed to the world, said USA Today.<\/p>\n The footage also hints that the story may be set in Kansas City \u2014 or at least feature a scene there. Kansas or Missouri? We might have to wait until summer to find out.<\/p>\n The trailer opens with the question:\u00a0\u201c<\/em>If you found out we weren\u2019t alone, if someone showed you, proved it to you. Would that frighten you?\u201d<\/p>\n Emily Blunt<\/a> is then shown delivering a\u00a0Weather 4 Kansas City Forecast\u00a0on television, cheerfully saying,\u00a0\u201cGood morning, Kansas City!\u201d\u00a0before she begins to stammer and produce strange, alien-like clicking sounds.<\/p>\n The footage also features a character played by\u00a0Josh O’Connor<\/a>\u00a0declaring, “People have a right to know the truth” and that he is planning for “full disclosure, to the whole world, all at once.” He is later shown standing in what appears to be a crop circle, said USA Today.<\/p>\n Colin Firth<\/a>,\u00a0Colman Domingo<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Eve Hewson<\/a>\u00a0also star in “Disclosure Day,” which marks Spielberg’s first new movie as a director since his Oscar-nominated, semi-autobiographical 2022 drama “The Fabelmans<\/a>.”<\/p>\n The film marks a return to a familiar subject for Spielberg: aliens, a theme he previously explored in\u00a0“Close Encounters of the Third Kind,”\u00a0“E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,”\u00a0“War of the Worlds”\u00a0and\u00a0“Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.”<\/p>\n In recent years, Spielberg has generally been more focused on adult-oriented dramas released during awards season, including “Bridge of Spies” and “The Post,” though he came back to sci-fi with his 2018 blockbuster “Ready Player One.”<\/p>\n Spielberg’s most recent film, “The Fabelmans,” was the story of an aspiring movie director who discovers a shattering family secret. The movie, which was heavily based on Spielberg’s own life, received seven Oscar nominations, including best picture.<\/p>\n “Disclosure Day” is set to hit theaters on June 12, 2026.<\/p>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.cjonline.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Steven Spielberg is back in action with a new movie, “Disclosure Day.” Has the legendary director drawn inspiration from the Midwest?
