Steven Spielberg is headed back into the science fiction arena with an untitled event movie centered on UFOs, and Universal has officially kicked off the marketing campaign this week.
Discussing Film reports that massive billboards have popped up in NY and LA promoting Spielberg’s mysterious sci-fi movie, which simply lists Spielberg’s name, a date, and a tagline. And it’s more than enough to make this one of the most anticipated movies of 2026.
“All will be disclosed,” the billboard reads. “Spielberg. 6.12.26.”
Check out an image of the billboard below and expect more very soon.
Steven Spielberg reteams with screenwriter David Koepp (Jurassic Park) on the film.
Emily Blunt (A Quiet Place) stars alongside Josh O’Connor (Challengers), Colman Domingo (Sing Sing), Colin Firth (The King’s Speech) and Eve Hewson (Bad Sisters).
Steven Spielberg is of course no stranger to extraterrestrial encounters, directing two of the greatest alien movies of all time: Close Encounters of the Third Kind in 1977 and E.T. in 1982. It’s an arena he returned to in 2005, directing an adaptation of H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds.
Even more recently, Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment produced the Netflix docuseries “Encounters” last year, which explores true stories of human contact with otherworldly phenomena. You can stream all four episodes of “Encounters” over on Netflix right now.
The untitled event movie comes courtesy of Amblin and Universal. Stay tuned for more.
