Published: June 15, 2026
LOS ANGELESSaying a courtesy call would have been nice even if nothing ever came of it, E.T. told reporters Monday he was shocked at not being contacted by director Steven Spielberg for a cameo in his new sci-fi movie Disclosure Day. I knew I wasnt going to be the lead, which was totally fine, but are you telling me that after more than 40 years of friendship, he cant pick up the phone and say hed love to throw a few lines my way? said the extraterrestrial, adding that it was him and his glowing fucking fingertip that gave Spielberg one of the top-earning movies of all time.
I mean, whos in the logo of his production company? Not Gizmo, thats for goddamn sure. But somehow I dont get a single feeler from Mr. Nicest Guy In Hollywood even though I said on Reddit not two years ago that I was eager to get back into acting now that Ive put my personal demons behind me. Well, guess what, Stevie? You had your chance, buddy boy. When George Lucas calls, youd better believe Ill be picking up. When reached for comment, Spielberg simply stated that he and E.T. had not spoken in many years, but that he wished him all the best.
