Colin Firth in Talks for Spielberg Film

Colin Firth is in early talks to join Emily Blunt in Steven Spielberg's upcoming film, set for release on May 15, 2026. The project, described as an 'event film,' is based on an original story by Spielberg, with a script written by David Koepp, famous for his work on 'Jurassic Park.' This film marks Spielberg's return to summer blockbusters after a decade, with no plot details currently available, although it has been speculated to involve themes related to UFOs. Firth, an Oscar winner for 'The King's Speech,' has recently appeared in projects such as 'Lockerbie' and 'Young Sherlock.' The film, produced by Spielberg's Amblin and Universal, is expected to start production in early 2025. This collaboration will be the first between Firth and Spielberg, adding significant star power to the film alongside Blunt.
