Steven Spielberg Says “I Have No Plans Ever to Retire” at Universal Theater Dedication


An A-list list roster of celebrities, creators and old allies joined NBCUniversal's Donna Langley and Comcast bigwigs in serenading Spielberg's legacy, and then touring an exhibit of private movie mementos never before seen.

The roster of notable executives, celebrities, old allies and creators on hand to celebrate Spielberg’s legacy included Langley’s bosses — Comcast CEO Brian Roberts and president Mike Cavanagh — as well as actors ranging from John Travolta, Vin Diesel and Seth Rogen to Colman Domingo, Dakota Fanning, Jeff Goldblum and Goonies stars Ke Huy Quan and Jeff Cohen, as well as writer-directors such as Jon M. Chu, Daniels and Kevin Williamson. After the theater dedication, Thursday’s guests were treated to an exclusive exhibit featuring never-before displayed props, costumes and behind-the-scenes photos, including clapper boards from Schindler’s List and The Fabelmans, the bicycles from E.T. The 250-seat Steven Spielberg Theater is nestled within The Commons, a new 84,000 sqare-foot building whose design pays homage to the very roots of cinema by resembling a spinning film reel.
