The official trailer for Steven Spielberg’s film Disclosure Day has arrived.

Universal Pictures released the film’s official trailer on Thursday. It returns Spielberg to his extraterrestrial roots.

The trailer starts with Josh O’Connor’s character, Daniel Kellner, admitting he has stolen long-kept government secrets about proof of living beings not on Earth.

“Secrets. The data they paid me to protect,” he says.

We also see Emily Blunt as a TV weatherperson from Kansas City. The trailer finds her unable to hold herself together while broadcasting live on air as she is seemingly possessed by something. People from around the world watch her, transfixed and visibly scared.

While most people on Earth don’t understand the gibberish Blunt says while possessed, O’Connor’s Daniel can. He wants to make sure people are made aware of exactly what is going on. “Full disclosure to the whole world,” he says.

Colin Firth, Eve Hewson and Colman Domingo also star in the thriller, which is based on a story by Spielberg.

David Koepp, the writer of Jurassic Park, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, War of the Worlds and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, wrote the screenplay for this new movie.

Spielberg is the top-grossing director of all time. He previously explored stories about extraterrestrial life in the films E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and War of the Worlds.

Road to the Oscars 2026: Records that could be broken

Road to the Oscars 2026: Records that could be broken
Road to the Oscars 2026: Records that could be broken
The 98th Academy Awards air March 15 on ABC and will also stream live on Hulu.

The 98th annual Academy Awards ceremony is Sunday. This year’s nominees have cemented their place in Oscars history. Here’s a look at some of the historical achievements that could be made and records that could be broken at this year’s ceremony.

Sinners has the opportunity to break the record for the most Oscars won in a single night. The film is nominated for a record-number 16 awards at the ceremony. If it wins 12 of those trophies, it will surpass Ben-Hur, Titanic and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, which all currently hold the record for most wins in a night with 11. If One Battle After Another wins 12 of its 13 nominations, it could also beat the same record.

If Sinners helmer Ryan Coogler wins in the best director category, he would become the first Black director to do so. He is the seventh Black director to be nominated in the category. Wunmi Mosaku is nominated for best supporting actress for her performance in Coogler’s film. She was born in Zaria, Nigeria, and is British-Nigerian. If she wins, she will become the first Nigerian to ever win an Oscar in any category.

Sentimental Value could break the record for the most Oscars won by a non-English-language film. The movie is nominated for nine trophies. If it wins five of them, it would beat Fanny and Alexander, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Parasite and All Quiet On The Western Front, which all hold the current record with four wins. If its stars Renate Reinsve or Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas win best actress or best supporting actress, they will become the first Norwegians to win for any acting performance. Similarly, if Stellan Skarsgård wins for his performance in the film, he will be the first Swedish male actor to ever win an Oscar for acting, as well as the first Nordic male actor to do so.

The Oscars will take place on Sunday at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood. The show will air live on ABC and will also stream live on Hulu.

A brand-new look at The Devil Wears Prada 2? Groundbreaking.

Tickets are now on sale for the highly-anticipated sequel to The Devil Wears Prada. To celebrate, there is a new spot that shows off even more about the upcoming movie.

Set to Madonna’s song “Vogue,” the teaser finds Meryl Streep back as editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly. She knocks impatiently on a hotel room door that belongs to Anne Hathaway’s Andy Sachs.

“Pull yourself together, we have work to do. And by we, I mean you,” Miranda says to Andy.

Later in the trailer, Miranda sits at the head of a table in a board room meeting.

“And the models were encouraged to mill around like starving goats in the parking lot of a methadone clinic in New Jersey?” Miranda says. When someone in the room clears their throat in discomfort, Miranda continues, “What? What am I not allowed to say? Methadone? New Jersey?”

This teaser comes almost 20 years after Streep and Hathaway made their turns as the iconic characters in the original 2006 film. Joining them in the sequel are Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci, who reprise their roles as Emily and Nigel.

Also returning are Tracie Thoms and Tibor Feldman, who will once again play the characters Lily and Irv.

Director David Frankel, who helmed the first film, returns to direct the sequel from a script by the writer of the first film, Aline Brosh McKenna.

A new cast of characters are also coming along for the ride. They are to be played by Kenneth Branagh, Simone Ashley, Justin Theroux, Lucy Liu, Patrick Brammall, Caleb Hearon, Helen J. Shen, Pauline Chalamet, B.J. Novak and Conrad Ricamora.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 will arrive in theaters on May 1.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and 20th Century Studios.

Road to the Oscars 2026: ‘Hamnet’ director Chloé Zhao says awards recognition is ‘an amazing feeling’

Chloé Zhao has been through the awards circuit before, winning the best picture and best director Oscars in 2021 for Nomadland. Now, she’s up for three Oscars for Hamnet: best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay alongside author Maggie O’Farrell.

Hamnet, an emotional drama about how love and loss in William Shakespeare’s (Paul Mescal) personal life helped shape his enduring classic Hamlet, scored eight nods overall — including projected favorite Jessie Buckley for best actress.

Zhao tells ABC Audio awards recognition is validating as a storyteller who just wants to be seen and heard.

“When it comes to awards or things like that, and this gathering of people celebrating your work, there is an element of that — of feeling validated, of feeling seen,” she says. “And of course, you need to be careful of how far you’re gonna allow that to be the only source of validation.”

“But I’m not cynical about it,” she adds, “because to be seen and celebrated and validated by your peers, which is very much a found family for me, is an amazing feeling.”

Equally as important to Zhao has been the audience’s emotional response to the film.

“It feels like a relief, first and foremost, because we were feeling so much every day,” she says. “Even when the cameras aren’t rolling, we were feeling so much for each other and learning about ourselves. So, it would kind of suck if no one else is feeling that way but us.”

The 2026 Oscars will air on Sunday at 7 p.m. ET on ABC.

After winning multiple Oscars for movie songs, Billie Eilish may get a chance to compete in the acting categories.

ABC Audio has learned that Billie is in talks to make her film debut in an adaptation of Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar. Plath, a poet and author who died by suicide at age 30, wrote The Bell Jar in 1963 under a pseudonym. The semi-autobiographical novel was published a month before her death.

Oscar winner Sarah Polley will write the screenplay and direct the film; it’s not clear which role Billie will play.

Deadline was the first to report the news.

Billie got good reviews for her acting debut, which came in the 2023 Prime Video series Swarm. Her concert documentary HIT ME HARD AND SOFT: THE TOUR (LIVE IN 3D), which she co-directed with James Cameron, arrives in theaters May 8.

Marcello Hernandez does his best Harry Styles impression in a new promo for Saturday Night Live.

Harry will host and be the musical guest on the March 14 installment of the show. In the promo, Marcello dons Harry’s outfit from the BRIT Awards and apes his dance moves as he makes his way to the stage of Studio 8H, while Harry’s song “American Girls” plays. He steps to the mic, only to be interrupted by the real Harry, standing in the back of the studio with Kenan Thompson.

“What are you doing, Marcello?”

“Nothing, Harry Styles,” says Marcello, knocking the mic to the floor.

“Are those my clothes?” Harry asks.

“Yeah, sorry. I thought you weren’t coming,” Marcello replies. “I thought I would just go on as your understudy.”

“Understudy? I’m 15 minutes late because Kenan and I went out for pain au chocolat,” Harry responds, as he and Kenan hold up the French pastries. “It’s a tradition when I host.” To be clear, Harry has only hosted the show once before. 

“Tsk tsk, Marcello. You forgot the pain au chocolat,” Kenan scolds.

“I’m sorry, I just wanted to help,” Marcello says. “If you want to help, hold my pain au chocolat,” says Harry.

Marcello quickly exits the stage, while Harry gets behind the mic and says, “See you on Saturday.”
