Steven Spielbergs latest project: Providing strategy for the Biden campaignSteven Spielberg is working with President Joe Biden's re-election campaign to provide strategy for the Democratic National Convention, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to NBC News on Friday.
Spielberg, a longtime supporter of Biden, has already actively participated in meetings with convention organizers for the August event, the source said. He does not currently have plans to create a film portion for this summers events, according to the source, though he did produce a film for then-President Barack Obamas campaign in 2008.
Puck first reported on Spielberg's involvement.
The famed director previously appeared at a Biden campaign fundraiser in the Los Angeles area in December that included Barbra Streisand, director Rob Reiner, recording industry magnate David Geffen and others.
Spielbergs friend and former DreamWorks business partner Jeffrey Katzenberg is also a co-chair of the Biden campaign. Katzenberg also hosted a fundraising meeting at his home during the campaign's December push in the greater Los Angeles area.
