Steven Spielberg is extending a helping hand to the health care professionals who are relentlessly combatting the mounting coronavirus cases around Los Angeles.

The three-time Academy Award winner, 73, through his production company, Amblin Entertainment, sent over quite the spread of food to doctors and nurses at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, Calif., according to TMZ.

The “Catch Me If You Can” director’s company, which is based in nearby Universal City, came through in a huge way for the hospital when it treated workers to Indian food for lunch and doubled back with barbeque for dinner the following day.
