Steven Spielberg is no stranger to extraterrestrial-themed projects. His iconic films "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" both explored themes of alien contact. "War of the Worlds," another collaboration with David Koepp, delved into a more intense and catastrophic vision of aliens invading Earth. Spielberg's track record with these types of films has set a high bar for what audiences can expect from his rumored UFO project.
