As Steven Spielberg’s new sci-fi thriller “Disclosure Day” dominates the box office, one longtime UFO investigator says the film mirrors reality more than fiction.
Joshua Golembeske, a documentary filmmaker and former MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) field investigator, told Fox News Digital that the films deep-state cover-up premise directly echoes actual Capitol Hill whistleblower testimony on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs).
For Golembeske, the host of “Cosmic Disclosure” on Gaia.com, the long-standing stigma surrounding UFOs is finally lifting. He was pleasantly surprised to see Spielberg’s film reflect real whistleblower accounts and praised the filmmaker for portraying extraterrestrials as benevolent rather than threatening.
“[He] did the right thing, because what he did was based it off the real events, the real information, not that fear that’s propagated by the media,” he said.

He noted scenes in the film that show childhood encounters as they are documented in UFO literature, where extraterrestrials use “screen memories” to disguise themselves as ordinary animals like owls or deer.
“So if a kid remembers a really weird experience, they’re going to remember, ‘Why was there owls in my room and deer?’ And then, ‘I was brought out to the woods and into a house that seemed like a fairy tale with lights everywhere,'” Golembeske said. “Well, what’s actually going on is it was ETs in your room escorting you out to a UFO or spacecraft somewhere in the forest. This sounds so unbelievable, but it’s been reported for decades and decades, and this film is trying to shine a light on it.”
Spielberg revealed in a recent interview that he has been “converted” on the topic of UFOs and now believes “the believers.” His inspiration for “Disclosure Day” reportedly stems from a deep dive into documentaries and recent congressional testimonies, where high-ranking military and intelligence officials have come forward.
The film’s release comes at a time when UAPs and allegations of a government cover-up are making real-world headlines. Last week, Golembeske traveled to Washington, D.C., to attend a high-profile press conference on Capitol Hill regarding the phenomenon.
At that event, UAP whistleblower and former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch accused intelligence agencies of hiding billions of dollars in secret government spending from Congress to conceal their knowledge of UAPs and diverse alien species.
Golembeske said the main takeaway from Grusch’s testimony is that UAPs are “real,” “the government has been covering them up for a long time,” whistleblowers are being “threatened,” and multiple types of alien species exist.
“I thought that was unbelievably shocking that David Grusch in front of the world, with Congress behind him, ad
