LARA SPENCER (ABC NEWS) (Off-camera) Hello, OG, and I miss you all, as well. We have a lot to talk about. We're going to begin with Steven Spielberg, he's got a new movie in the works. It's a coming of age story based on his own life growing up, and guess who's cast to play his relative? Seth Rogen is on board to play a character inspired by Spielberg's favorite uncle, he must have been a very favorite uncle. And Michelle Williams has joined the cast to play a character inspired by his own mother. The as yet untitled drama will be loosely based on Spielberg's childhood in Arizona. And since this story's so personal to him, Spielberg is also putting pen to paper, co-writing the script. That's the first time he's done that in 20 years, since 2001's "AI." The film is expected to be released sometime in 2022. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
