Universal Pictures isn’t just focusing on animation at the Super Bowl. It has two high-profile live-action films directed by auteur filmmakers set for summer releases. It seems unlikely that Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey will get a Super Bowl spot, which opens the door for Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day. Universal Pictures wants to harken back to the days of Jurassic Park and War of the Worlds in marketing Disclosure Day, keeping much of the movie a mystery. In fact, audiences got their first look at War of the Worlds in 2005 during Super Bowl XXXIX. Releasing a Super Bowl spot for an alien-first-contact summer blockbuster did wonders for Independence Day, and it’s often regarded as the best Super Bowl movie spot of all time. Universal Pictures hopes that viewers tuning in to the game will be drawn in by the ominous premise and Spielberg’s name, turning the film into an old-fashioned blockbuster.
