The science fiction thriller will arrive in theaters on June 12, 2026.
During the SUPER BOWL on Sunday, a new TV spot was released for Disclosure Day, the new original event film starring Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Eve Hewson, and Tony Award nominee Colman Domingo.
The highly anticipated movie sees Spielberg return to the science fiction genre, previously explored in such films as Close Encounters of the Third Kind and War of the Worlds. The logline reads: "If you found out we weren’t alone, if someone showed you, proved it to you, would that frighten you? This summer, the truth belongs to seven billion people. We are coming close to … Disclosure Day."
In the video, a news outlet pauses its regularly scheduled program to announce an initiative for the release of government documents, which would fundamentally shift the way society thinks about extraterrestrial life. Josh O'Connor is adamant about their release, with Colin Firth noting potential dangers. Also featured is an action-packed sequence involving a car and a moving train, and a recurring dilating eye motif, suggesting that alien life is living among us.
Based on a story by Spielberg, the screenplay is by David Koepp, whose previous work with Spielberg includes the scripts for Jurassic Park, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, War of the Worlds and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It will arrive in theaters on June 12, 2026.
Disclosure Day is produced by five-time Academy Award nominee Kristie Macosko Krieger (The Fabelmans, West Side Story) and by Spielberg for Amblin Entertainment. The executive producers are Adam Somner and Chris Brigham. John Williams has also been confirmed as the composer for the score.
