Steven Spielberg and Science Fiction Projects

Steven Spielberg has always been interested in films and series with a science fiction theme. From Close Encounters of the Third Kind from 1977, to the international hit E. T. from 1982, Spielberg has been enchanted with the idea of ​​aliens and space travel for almost 40 years, and all of that has been accompanied by technology of the future.

When asked if he was proud that in 2002, his film Minority Report predicted very accurately that ads and marketing campaigns will be displayed individually on each individual consumer, for example the scene when Tom Cruise enters the store of the clothing brand GAP, and the video addresses him by his first name, he replied: "I am proud, but it is a double-edged sword.
I am really proud of all the innovations that I and my associates managed to think of while preparing the story for the film Minority Report, which takes place in the near future. But I am also mad at myself for not patenting all those ideas, because if I have done that, I'd be the owner of Goran Visnjic's Facebook page or perhaps the Apple iPhone. If only I could’ve predicted that it will truly become our future, not science fiction, that we will soon have a technological platform that will allow our fingers to take us into the world of information! Writers of science-fiction genre today write about how the world will look like in the future, and soon that technology will be within our reach. It is always interesting how the things that writers of science fiction fantasize about in some distant future, eventually get invented within 7 to 10 years. "

With the series “Extant”, Halle Berry, the international megastar of the silver screen, the first black woman who won an Oscar for leading actress in the film Monster's Ball in 2001, returned to television for the first time, since her last appearance in 1991. Regarding her partner in this tense sci-fi series Goran Visnjic, she has nothing but words of praise:

"I was thrilled to hear that Goran Visnjic will play my husband. I am big fan of Goran, especially now, when he is playing in NBC's TV series 'Time', where I noticed his enormous talent and immediately wanted to work with him if there was ever a opportunity. I think he does a great job playing John, and that he perfectly reflects the personality that unites both mental and physical strength. He is very sexy, but also he is a scientist, an intelligent man, devoted to his project. Goran Visnjic is a family man, and so is his character, which is why he perfectly fits this role. "
