Spielberg to direct new 'Space Movie'

E.T. Call me?

Our own Adam Mast's favorite helmer, Steven Spielberg has announced plans through Variety to direct a space travel themed movie. Not much is known about the movie, or what it will be about, but sources at the trade say that the film will not be his next project, as it will take some time to prepare. His next directorial project could be the proposed Abraham Lincoln project that is set to star Liam Neeson, or the one that we're all waiting for, INDIANA JONES 4! Kip S. Thorne has provided a treatment for the untitled space movie. Lynda Obst will produce. The project is yet untitled but the letters A,I,E and T have been ruled out (bioj).
