Renowned filmmaker Steven Spielberg is set to return to the science fiction genre with a new UFO movie, based on his original idea. The screenplay will be penned by David Koepp, although further details about the story, casting, release date, and title remain undisclosed. Spielberg, known for iconic sci-fi films like Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, has primarily focused on dramas in recent years. While his period dramas have received acclaim, some critics have noted a tendency towards formulaic storytelling and sentimental themes in his more recent works.
