American screenwriter and director (born 1953)

Liam Neeson has spent the last decade dancing between genres like a seasoned circus performer, trading his gravitas‑laden dramatic roots for the gleeful chaos of action mayhem. One moment he's growling threats into a flip phone, the next he's wrestling wolves or popping up in a spoof like The Naked Gun. By 2026, he's added yet another feather to his already overstuffed cap: horror‑comedy. In Cold Storage, Neeson strides into the fray as if he's been waiting his whole life to battle a government‑bred fungus with a bad attitude.According to the tale spun on IMDb, a top‑secret lab misplaces a highly dangerous fungus—because of course it does—and suddenly a retired bioterrorism agent is yanked back into service. He teams up with two plucky young employees of a storage facility to face an enemy that can't be seen, reasoned with, or politely asked to stay in its containment chamber. It's part zombie romp, part disaster spectacle, and entirely the sort of bureaucratic blunder that makes you wonder who keeps approving these fictional government budgets.Guided by director Jonny Campbell and penned by screenwriter‑producer David Koepp, the film pairs Neeson with Joe Keery of Stranger Things fame and Georgina Campbell from Barbarian, plus a delightful appearance by Vanessa Redgrave. Released in just over a thousand theaters—including IMAX, for those who prefer their fungal horrors larger than life—the movie crept into cinemas appropriately on Friday the Thirteenth, February 2026, for a limited run. Now your cohosts dive into this quirky creature feature to share their thoughts, their laughs, and perhaps their newfound fear of refrigerated storage units.

Josh is joined by Steven Spielberg Correspondent Josh Brown to talk about Spielberg's newest film, "Disclosure Day." They discuss if Spielberg and co-writer David Koepp found a unique enough story to justify Spielberg's returning to sci-fi (and alien-focused subject matter), the performances from a cast that included Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor and Colin Firth, a long digression about Steven Spielberg's politics and his recent move to New York City and much more!
Steven Spielberg returns with Disclosure Day, reuniting with screenwriter David Koepp and legendary composer John Williams for another highly anticipated collaboration. We break down the film's performances, direction, screenplay, and score, discussing what impressed us, what fell short, and whether Spielberg's latest is worth your time.

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to DMRs Disclosure Day Spoiler Review! In this episode, we break down Steven Spielberg's highly anticipated 2026 sci-fi outer worldly thriller, analysing how it serves as the ultimate culmination of his alien legacy. We track his cosmic evolution over fifty years, contrasting the child-like wonder of Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. with the visceral, post-9/11 apocalyptic dread of War of the Worlds, leading directly into the deep-state corporate paranoia of his latest masterpiece.Our comprehensive cast and character breakdown features stellar performances from Emily Blunt as the telepathic meteorologist Margaret Fairchild, Josh O'Connor as cybersecurity whistleblower Dr. Daniel Kellner, and Colin Firth playing brilliantly against type as the cold corporate villain Noah Scanlon, alongside powerhouse roles from Eve Hewson and Colman Domingo. Plus, we countdown the top 10 spoiler moments from the David Koepp-penned script and connect the film's tense plot to real-world UFO disclosure history—from the iconic 1947 Roswell crash to Brazil's legendary 1996 Varginha incident, right up to the modern satellite data leaks of 2026.Chapters 0:00 Intro & Audible 30-Day Free Trial03:25 Spielberg's Alien Films07:22 What is Disclosure Day09:21 Real World Alien Events17:01 The Characters & Cast20:27 Disclosure Day Spoilers 26:17 DMRs Verdict If you like this deep dive DMR review hit like, share and subscribe!#disclosureday #alien #aliens #ufo #ufos #conspiracyDMR is proud to be part of the Audible Creator Program.

A shorter episode of The Interviews this week, folks, but it packs a lot into its 35 minutes, as Chris Hewitt talks music, Irish accents, life post-Game Of Thrones, and more with 500 Miles star, Maisie Williams, and then delves deep into Disclosure Day spoilers with that film's writer, the great David Koepp, in an excerpt from our spoiler special pod (out now). Enjoy!
This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes revisit "Secret Window", the psychological thriller based on a story by Stephen King and the winner of this season's Audience Choice.For Mike Butler, this is a film he has never really connected with, and a rewatch does little to change his opinion. While he praises the direction, performances, and the film's small-scale, almost independent feel, the story itself continues to frustrate him. The central twist does not land, many of Mort's decisions feel dumb, and perhaps most importantly, Butler never finds himself caring about Mort despite the torment he endures throughout the film.Mike Field is much more positive on the movie, though he does not dismiss Butler's criticisms. He appreciates David Koepp's directing choices, the film's pacing, and the way it steadily builds tension. Even if some of the story's weaknesses remain, Field finds enough atmosphere and craftsmanship to make the experience worthwhile.The discussion ultimately becomes less about whether "Secret Window" is objectively good or bad and more about what audiences need from a psychological thriller. Is the strong direction and atmosphere enough when the story itself leaves you cold? Or do the film's flaws undermine everything else it does well?What are some of your favorite film twists? Let us know in the comments below!

The critic reviews are a lie. Disclosure Day is sitting at 81% on Rotten Tomatoes and it is terrible. MonteCristo and DoA break down how Steven Spielberg, John Williams, David Koepp, and Janusz Kamiński, four of the most accomplished filmmakers alive, collectively produced a movie where nothing makes sense, nothing is explained, and the climax is hijacking a local Kansas City news broadcast in 2026 because apparently TikTok doesn't exist.

This week the BGH crew emerges from the theater to review Steven Spielberg's “Disclosure Day”, and along the way asks the question; What happens when an 80 year old tries to say something profound and completely misses the mark? We also talk about tall greys, our own feelings on aliens and whether or not the world would even blink twice if someone actually attempted full disclosure. Disclosure Day is a 2026 American science fiction thriller film directed and produced by Steven Spielberg from a screenplay by David Koepp, based on a story by Spielberg. The film stars an ensemble cast, including Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Eve Hewson, and Colman Domingo. As the world stands poised on the brink of World War III, cybersecurity specialist Dr. Daniel Kellner steals from the Wardex Corporation, a secret arm of the U.S. government, a piece of extraterrestrial technology and related files, detailing various events of human–alien contact dating back to the Roswell incident. Wardex CEO Noah Scanlon discovers the theft and has Daniel branded a foreign spy, making him the target of federal authorities. Daniel goes into hiding at a convent with his girlfriend, Jane Blankenship. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Spielberg, aliens, and a CGI fox that should be tried for war crimes. Welcome to Disclosure Day.Cupcake and Mike review Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day, starring Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Colman Domingo, and Eve Hewson — a North by Northwest-meets-Close Encounters conspiracy thriller about what happens when the government finally admits aliens are real. Written by David Koepp, scored by John Williams, shot by Janusz Kaminski — this is about as classic-Spielberg a creative team as it gets. So why does this conversation get so heated? Is Spielberg "too old for this"? Why are Mike and Jose deeply split on Emily Blunt and Josh O'Connor performances? Is the third act really the humanity unifying resolution or did a legendary filmmaker shit the bed?

Spoilers for Disclosure Day. Jason and Rachel review Disclosure Day, Steven Spielberg's new alien movie starring Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colman Domingo, Colin Firth, and Wyatt Russell. There are things to like here: Emily Blunt is great, Colman Domingo remains a human weighted blanket, and a few sequences feel like vintage Spielberg. But the movie's big alien reveal, TV station climax, confusing character logic, and “world peace / just listen” ending left us deeply frustrated. We talk Close Encounters comparisons, little green men, thumb drives, World War III, invisible fire trucks, AI-era skepticism, David Koepp, Spielberg nostalgia, and why Disclosure Day ends up as a disappointed thumbs down.

Steven Spielberg returns to one of the defining obsessions of his career with Disclosure Day, a science-fiction thriller inspired by modern UFO disclosure debates and decades of speculation about extraterrestrial life. Written by longtime Spielberg collaborator David Koepp from a story Spielberg reportedly carried with him for years, the film stars Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Eve Hewson, and Colman Domingo in a story about government secrecy, hidden truths, and humanity's first official reckoning with the reality of alien contact.Released on June 12, 2026, Disclosure Day has been praised by critics for its ambition, performances, and Spielberg's trademark sense of wonder, while generating a far more divided reaction among audiences. Is the confirmation that aliens exist still the earth-shattering revelation it once was, or has popular culture spent the last eighty years preparing us for that moment? In this episode, we discuss whether Spielberg's latest film is a hopeful meditation on truth and humanity's place in the universe, or a story built around a revelation that no longer carries the dramatic weight it did in the era of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Join us as we break down the film, its themes, its cultural relevance, and whether Disclosure Day arrived at exactly the wrong moment in history.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59
Steven Spielberg torna a parlare di alieni, UFO, governi che nascondono la verità e umanità costretta a confrontarsi con qualcosa di più grande di sé. Disclosure Day non è solo il nuovo film di fantascienza di Spielberg: è un ritorno dentro un immaginario che passa inevitabilmente da Incontri ravvicinati del terzo tipo, E.T., La guerra dei mondi e, in modo meno diretto ma comunque percepibile, anche Minority Report. In questa recensione di Spin-Off – Un Podcast di Recenserie, Federico analizza il nuovo film scritto da David Koepp e interpretato da Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Eve Hewson e Colman Domingo. Al centro della storia c'è il giorno della rivelazione: il momento in cui la prova dell'esistenza degli alieni smette di essere un segreto custodito da governi, corporation e apparati militari, diventando una verità impossibile da nascondere. Disclosure Day funziona come thriller cospirativo, film sugli UFO, riflessione sulla fede, racconto sull'empatia e discorso sulla verità nell'epoca della disinformazione. Non tutto arriva con la stessa forza, alcuni passaggi sono fin troppo esplicativi e il finale può dividere, ma il film resta un blockbuster adulto, ambizioso e sinceramente spielbergiano.

Dave & Cody bring back Kiefer, a college debate coach and cinephile, to review Disclosure Day, the new original Spielberg alien movie. The vintage Spielberg machine is back together: John Williams on score, Janusz Kamiński shooting, David Koepp writing, Michael Kahn editing. Dave makes the case that the whole movie is tuned to a frequency Gen X kids hear and millennials might not. The table digs into Emily Blunt's career-best performance, a possibly divisive ending, the government-competence logic gaps, and whether two and a half hours earns a do-it-yourself conclusion. The Pastor's Corner lands on empathy as survival. Plus the Sandlot reunion series and a round of the Movie Game.SPOILER WARNING: Full spoilers for Disclosure Day after the news segment.Movie reviewed: Disclosure Day (2026) — Directed by Steven Spielberg, written by David Koepp. Starring Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colin Firth, Eve Hewson, Colman Domingo, with a score by John Williams.

We're diving into the summer's most anticipated sci-fi thriller, Disclosure Day, directed by the legendary Steven Spielberg. The film explores the chaos of the first 24 hours after the global government finally confirms that extraterrestrial life has not only visited Earth but has been subjected to secret experiments for nearly 80 years. Fun Flix Fact: Steven Spielberg spent two months writing the initial 60-page story outline himself, drawing inspiration from his decades-long fascination with UFO reports. He then collaborated with screenwriter David Koepp, who wrote over 42 drafts of the screenplay—the most of his entire career! To celebrate a decade of Denis Villeneuve's sci-fi brilliance, we're revisiting Arrival (2016). We discuss how it changed the "alien invasion" genre forever by focusing on linguistics and time, rather than lasers and explosions. Fun Flix Fact: The complex, circular "logograms" used by the Heptapods were designed by a professional artist and linguist who created a functional visual language. The production team spent months ensuring the symbols followed consistent grammatical rules—even though the audience only sees a fraction of the language on screen!

This week's Empire Podcast sees Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara, and James Dyer pack the sunscreen, flip-flops, and oversized hats into a tiny bag as they discuss some of the movie holidays they'd like to take. And yes, they somehow manage to do this without mentioning Roman Holiday, The Holiday, M. Hulot's Holiday, or Mr Bean's Holiday. Any film with the word 'holiday' in it, basically, the colossal eejits. They've been placed on gardening leave as a result. But before that, they also discuss the week's movie news, including 24 Jump Street (with a special cameo), and review Steven Spielberg's latest movie, Disclosure Day, plus Jorma Taccone's Over Your Dead Body, and Peter Mullan drama, The Fall Of Sir Douglas Weatherford. Speaking of Spielberg, Disclosure Day writer David Koepp returns to the podbooth to tell Chris all about how this latest slice of sci-fi came to life. [46:26 - 1:06:00] Enjoy.

Panic Room was a successful mid-range budget thriller from the early 2000s. Starring Jodie Foster and directed by David Fincher, it became a huge hit at the time of its release, but has since become somewhat forgotten. So join us as we delve back into this slice of history, which still looks pretty great by today's standards, especially considering the use of CGI effects to achieve specific shots. Also, as always, we've picked out the most loathsome characters from the film, so join us at the end of the episode in voting for which one was the most deserving to die.

Westworld is heading back to the big screen, and this episode breaks down why that could be the best possible future for the franchise. Frank reacts to Warner Bros. developing a new Westworld movie, David Koepp writing the script, and why the original 1970s film still holds up as one of the strongest versions of the idea. The conversation also looks at what made the HBO series work early on, where it became too stretched out, and why Westworld may be better suited for focused one-off movies instead of another long-running series. Frank also makes the case for Matt Reeves as the ideal director, using The Batman and Planet of the Apes as examples of how to balance scale, danger, and character-focused storytelling.00:00 Westworld Is Finally Getting a New Movie00:15 Why the Original Westworld Still Works00:34 David Koepp Writing the New Film00:47 Frank's Pick for Director: Matt Reeves01:14 How Westworld Could Become a Bigger Movie Franchise01:44 Final Thoughts and Director Wish ListWarner Bros. is reportedly developing a new Westworld movie.David Koepp, best known for writing Jurassic Park, is attached to write the script.Frank argues that Westworld works best as a movie concept rather than a drawn-out series.The original 1970s Westworld and its sequel Futureworld still offer a strong foundation for a modern reboot.Matt Reeves is Frank's top choice to direct because of his work on The Batman and Planet of the Apes.A future Westworld franchise could explore different parks, including Future World, Samurai World, Roman World, and Medieval World.Frank pitches a connected movie concept where each film takes place on the same day, but in a different area of the park.“Been begging for a movie in this franchise for a long time.

Directed by Jonny Campbell, Cold Storage is the horror comedy based on David Koepp's (who also wrote the screenplay) 2019 novel of the same name. Teacake (Joe Keery) and Naomi (Georgina Campbell), two employees at a self-storage company, have the wildest shift of their lives when a parasitic fungus that was sealed by the government escapes. The highly contagious and rapidly mutating microorganism starts to multiply as it unleashes its brain-controlling, body-bursting terrors on the facility's inhabitants. It's up to Teacake and Naomi, with the help of a grizzled retired bioterror operative (Liam Neeson), to contain the merciless menace and prevent the explosive extinction of Mankind itself. We break down all things "B-Grade" horror and sci-fi, how Morocco can pass for Australia, and Joe Keery's pop career.
It's post-Oscar Monday on BEHIND THE LENS and most of Hollywood is probably still recuperating from a night of celebration. Some big winners last evening, notably ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, SINNERS, and KPOP DEMON HUNTERS, and you'll hear me talk about the evening with the good, the bad, and, to borrow from Sigourney Weaver, the adorable. But on #BTLRadioShow, we're looking ahead with films that could be in contention for the 99th Academy Awards next year, namely COLD STORAGE and screenwriter DAVID KOEPP, and DO NOT ENTER and director MARC KLASFELD. First up is screenwriter – and also author – David Koepp talking about his sci-fi thriller COLD STORAGE. You all know who David is. He's the screenwriter behind Jurassic Park, Stir of Echoes, The Mummy, several Indiana Jones movies, Zathura, Death Becomes Her, Carlito's Way, and so many more. Some are original scripts. Many are adaptations of books or novellas from authors like Michael Crichton and Stephen King. But now, with COLD STORAGE, David is adapting his own book! The film stars Liam Neeson, Lesley Manville, Joe Keery, Georgina Campbell, and Vanessa Redgrave. Then we go from sci-fi thriller with snark and humor to a straight-up terror-filled tale from director MARC KLASFELD – DO NOT ENTER. And I'll tell you all right now, if you're from Philly or Jersey and have fond memories of going down the shore or all those stories and rumors about haunted places, horrid creatures like the Jersey Devil, or mobsters galore, then this is definitely the film for you. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com
In this ScreenFish 1on1 interview, Jonny Campbell, director of Cold Storage, and Georgina Campbell (Naomi) discuss the unique joy of horror and the visual style that defines the film. They dive into the creative process behind bringing the story to life, particularly in collaboration with screenwriter David Koepp. The conversation explores the balance between tension, thrill, and visual storytelling, and how the team created a horror experience that's both chilling and exhilarating.COLD STORAGE is in theatres now.
Sorry, Spookies, we didn't mean to pick a flick that was impossible to see in theaters — but if you can manage to hunt down a showing of Cold Storage (2026) near you, it's definitely worth the watch. Starring Joe Keery, Georgina Campbell, and Liam Neeson, this horror comedy tackles the zombie genre in ways that are both familiar and fresh. With CLEAR references to films like The Return of the Living Dead, Train to Busan, and Alien, David Koepp's smart new book-turned-screenplay is very much in conversation with the genre, and we're pointing out parallels and parsing the different kinds of pastries on a new Spooky Tuesday.

Can a science fiction thriller about exploding, bile-bloated corpses and intergalactic spores be described as delightful? Well, Cold Storage had us grinning like kiddos on Christmas morning. Filmmaker Jonny Campbell helms this whacked-out fungal horror-comedy written by the prolific David Koepp, adapted from his own novel (of the same name). It's begging for a bigger budget, with some underwhelming digital effects employed, but that's hardly a dealbreaker. Listen in to hear us gush about ... well ... all the gushing gore in Cold Storage.
