Steven Spielberg movie, partially shot in Huntington, will be called 'Disclosure Day' and hit theaters in June

The film Steven Spielberg shot in Huntington earlier this year now has a title (“Disclosure Day”), trailer and release date (June 12), all of which were unveiled by Universal Pictures on Tuesday.

The trailer has already drawn tens of thousands of views on YouTube.

"Disclosure Day" stars Emily Blunt as a Kansas City weathercaster who learns that humans are not alone in the universe and Josh O’Connor as a man who appears to hold the proof. The cast also includes Colin Firth (“The King’s Speech”), Eve Hewson (Apple TV’s “Bad Sisters”) and Colman Domingo (“Sing Sing”). Spielberg is credited with the story; his sometime collaborator David Koepp (“Jurassic Park,” “War of the Worlds”) wrote the screenplay. With its suggestions of alien contact and governmental overreach, the trailer recalls such Spielberg classics as “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” and “E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial.”

Spielberg filmed some scenes for “Disclosure Day” in March inside The Paramount theater in Huntington. The production shut down several nearby parking lots and restricted street parking for at least three days. None of the local scenes appear in the trailer.
