Steven Spielberg’s ‘Disclosure Day’ will begin streaming exclusively on Peacock on October 9, 2026. The sci-fi thriller first reached theaters on June 12 and earned $241.3 million worldwide. The film follows Emily Blunt, who plays Margaret, the TV meteorologist, and Josh O’Connor, who plays Daniel, a cybersecurity expert and whistleblower who discovers information that could expose the organization behind the cover-up.

The pair must stay ahead of the organization while trying to understand what the evidence means. The story focuses on humanity's response to the possibility of extraterrestrial contact. It raises questions about why officials would hide such information and what could happen if the truth were to reach the public.

‘Disclosure Day’ ends with Margaret and Daniel exposing decades of hidden evidence about extraterrestrial contact. Wardex tries to stop their broadcast by cutting power to the Kansas City news station, but Jane restores the system using alien technology. Margaret then broadcasts the evidence to the world, revealing Wardex’s experiments on captured aliens.

The disclosure helps halt the threat of World War III, and the final scene introduces another mystery. Former Wardex whistleblowers reveal that they have protected an alien. The creature whispers a message to Daniel, who passes it to Margaret. She faces the camera and says, “Listen,” before the film cuts to black. The movie never reveals the full message.

The cast also consists of Colin Firth, Eve Hewson, and Colman Domingo. David Koepp wrote the screenplay from a story by Spielberg. Adam Somner and Chris Brigham serve as executive producers, with Kristie Macosko Krieger and Spielberg producing. ‘Disclosure Day’ received mostly favorable reviews after its theatrical release.

Critics praised Spielberg’s approach to the science-fiction story and the performances of its two leads. Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment produced the sci-fi thriller with Spielberg directing. The movie's $241.3 million global box office run made it one of the summer's major theatrical releases. Its Peacock debut now marks the next stage of its release.
