What would you do if you discovered that aliens were real, and a lot closer than you’d imagined? Would you be awestruck or terrified? That’s the premise of Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day, and in the trailer that dropped Tuesday, it’s clear not everyone knows how to handle the truth.
The Disclosure Day trailer shows Emily Blunt as a meteorologist who, midway through her weather broadcast, begins speaking in what sounds like an alien language. As the whole world watches Blunt’s newscast, it’s clear that something very, very strange is happening — not just with her, but with the universe at large.
The trailer cuts to other unsettling shots: There’s a crop circle, created by an unseen force. Colin Firth’s character’s eyes mysteriously turn from brown to icy blue. A deer appears to recruit a child in her bedroom, before they walk with other animals to a house emanating a bright light. What appear to be government officials race around in black cars.
Josh O’Connor’s character seems to know exactly what’s going on. “You won’t believe me if I told you, so I’m going to show you,” he tells someone. When that person asks O’Connor’s character what he is going to do, he responds: “Full disclosure. To the whole world.”
Written by Spielberg’s longtime collaborator, Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp, Disclosure Day also stars Wyatt Russell and Colman Domingo. It’s Spielberg’s first film since his semi-autobiographical The Fabelmans in 2022.
It’ll also be the fourth time Spielberg has made a movie about aliens. He previously helmed 1977’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which was about people desperate to make contact with aliens, before going on to direct the heartwarming 1982 film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. His last alien movie, 2005’s invasion film War of the Worlds, suggested that not all aliens are friendly.
Disclosure Day hits theaters June 12, 2026.
