Overview

  • 'Please Don't Feed the Children' began streaming free on Tubi on June 27 after its premiere at last October’s Sitges Film Festival.
  • The dystopian thriller stars Michelle Dockery, Zoe Colletti and Giancarlo Esposito in a story about teenagers surviving a pandemic that spares only children.
  • Spielberg transitioned to directing following an injury that ended her equestrian career, honing her skills with shorts 'Rosie' (2019) and 'Let Me Go the Right Way' (2022).
  • She held a private family screening of her debut feature, earning praise from her parents Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw and emotional reactions from her siblings.
  • She has another feature, 'Four Assassins (And a Funeral)', in development and has resumed competitive equestrianism after an eight-year hiatus.
