Filmmaker Steven Spielberg has a unique perspective on ‘life’ on Earth. Recently, the ‘Disclosure Day’ filmmaker commented on the presence of extraterrestrial beings on Earth. He also said he believes in life beyond Earth, though he’s never encountered a UFO. Recently, former US president Barack Obama also went viral for saying aliens exist.
Steven Spielberg believes we’re not alone on Earth
Steven Spielberg, 79, gave his take on the existence of life beyond Earth during a keynote interview at the SXSW Film & TV Festival in Austin. “I don’t know any more than any of you do, but I have a very strong suspicion that we are not alone here on Earth right now,” Spielberg said. “I made a movie about that.”
Former President Barack Obama also believes in the existence of aliens
Previously, Barack Obama also made a similar comment. The former president, 64, said that aliens are real in an interview with YouTuber and political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen released on February 14, but added that he has yet to see any with his own eyes. During a rapid-fire round, Obama was asked, “Are aliens real?” Obama responded, “They’re real, but I haven’t seen them.”
Steven Spielberg’s joyful remark on Barack Obama’s take
When Spielberg first heard Obama’s words, the legendary filmmaker admitted his first thought was, “Oh my God, this is so great for Disclosure Day.”After his comments fueled conspiracy theorists, the former president, 64, later clarified his statement on Instagram, saying, “Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good there’s life out there.” “He stepped back to say what he believed was life in the cosmos, which, of course, everybody should believe in,” Spielberg added. “No one should really think that we are the only intelligent civilization in the entire universe.” “The big question is, are we alone now? And have we been alone over the last 80 years? Have we been alone over the last few thousand years?” he added.
