Steven Spielberg's Alien Docuseries ENCOUNTERS Lands at Netflix
Steven Spielberg has always been fascinated by UFOs and aliens as he’s made several films about these subject matters over the course of his career. So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he and his Amblin Television have produced a new alien documentary series titled Encounters.
It’s been reported that Netflix has picked up the four-part series, which was also developed by Boardwalk Pictures, which is behind Netflix’s Pepsi, Where’s My Jet?, and Vice Studios. The project was directed by Yon Motskin, who created Max’s Generation Hustle.
The series will explore four extraordinary true stories of encounters with otherworldly phenomena. Each episode tells” a single story: strange lights in the sky over small-town Texas; submersible space crafts haunting a coastal Welsh village; an alien encounter with schoolchildren in Zimbabwe and non-human intelligence reportedly interfering with a nuclear power plant in Japan.”
The stories are told from the “perspective of firsthand experiences – in the places where the sightings occurred – and guided by scientists and military personnel, the series highlights the profoundly human impact of these encounters on lives, families, and communities.”
The series comes as new revelations have emerged from military whistleblowers of alien encounters, UFOs, and clandestine Pentagon programs, as well as coverage from major news sources.
I’m fascinated by this stuff and I’m really curious to see how these stories are covered in this documentary. Encounters will launch the four-parter on September 27.
