The film is led by Oscar nominee Michelle Williams (Blue Valentine), Paul Dano (The Batman), Seth Rogen (This Is the End), and Julia Butters (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood), who play roles inspired by Spielberg’s mother, father, favorite uncle, and sister, respectively. Meanwhile, Gabriel LaBelle is set to portray the leading role of Sammy Fabelman, who is inspired by the E.T. and Indiana Jones filmmaker.
The Fabelmans is loosely inspired by Spielberg’s childhood in Arizona which the director has often cited as a major inspiration for his films. Growing up in an Orthodox Jewish family has been the subject that the director often goes back and pays homage to through his work.
