Birmingham is celebrating the appearance of Hollywood director Steven Spielberg in the streets of the English city, for filming of his new movie “Ready Player One.”
“He is possibly one of the most famous film directors of our time and he is here” the Birmingham Mail announced. “Dressed in flat cap, puffer jacket and trainers, Steven Spielberg has been spotted in Lionel Street today directing his new futuristic film.”
