Josh O’Connor will be joining Emily Blunt in Steven Spielberg's next major project. The untitled film, co-produced by Amblin and Universal, will also feature Colin Firth, Colman Domingo, and Eve Hewson. Although plot details remain secret, the movie is already building excitement with its star-studded cast and collaboration with screenwriter David Koepp.

Josh O’Connor is set to co-star opposite Emily Blunt in the highly anticipated untitled film by Steven Spielberg, produced by Amblin Entertainment and Universal Pictures. O’Connor joins an impressive cast, including Academy Award winner Colin Firth, Euphoria's Colman Domingo, and Bad Sisters star Eve Hewson.

The film, based on a story by Steven Spielberg, is scripted by David Koepp, a frequent Spielberg collaborator, known for his work on films such as Jurassic Park and War of the Worlds. Universal and Amblin have remained tight-lipped about the plot, but the involvement of such major talents has generated considerable buzz.

Kristie Macosko Krieger is producing the film, which is slated for a summer release on May 15, 2026. The release date positions it as a potential blockbuster, fitting the "summer tentpole" tradition that Spielberg helped shape with iconic films like Jaws and Raiders of the Lost Ark. It will be Spielberg's first significant summer release in several years, sparking high expectations.

Josh O'Connor recently starred in Luca Guadagnino's Challengers, a critically acclaimed film for Amazon MGM Studios that grossed nearly $100 million globally. O'Connor is currently filming The Mastermind with Alana Haim, directed by Kelly Reichardt, and will also be seen in Rian Johnson's upcoming Knives Out installment, Wake Up Dead Man, set for a Netflix release next year.

He is repped by CAA, Independent Talent Group, Johnson Shapiro Slewett & Kole.
