Director David Robert Mitchell (It Follows) is back this summer with The End of Oak Street, and the brand new official trailer unleashes all kinds of dinosaurs this morning.
Watch the new trailer for The End of Oak Street and look for the mystery box sci-fi/horror movie in theaters August 14, 2026 from Warner Bros. and producer J.J. Abrams.
Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor come face-to-face with a monstrous threat in The End of Oak Street, which looks like M. Night Shyamalan with retro-style Amblin vibes.
As Mitchell explained to Entertainment Weekly, inspirations for the film include Jurassic Park, The Twilight Zone, Poltergeist, The Valley of Gwangi, and M. Night Shyamalan’s Signs.
“It’s the merging of character with spectacle, the way that I think some of those ’70s and ’80s movies did really well,” director David Robert Mitchell told EW. “There are moments of drama, of terror and suspense, and humor. It really does move through the range.”
The End of Oak Street is set in the early 1980s, we learned last week.
In the film, “After a mysterious cosmic event rips Oak Street from suburbia and transports their neighborhood to someplace unknown, the Platt family soon discovers that their very survival depends on them sticking together as they navigate their now unrecognizable surroundings.”
Maisy Stella and Christian Convery also star.
The film is written and directed by David Robert Mitchell and produced by J.J. Abrams, Hannah Minghella, Jon Cohen, David Robert Mitchell, Matt Jackson and Tommy Harper. The executive producers are Chris Bender, Jake Weiner, Joanne Lee and Leeann Stonebreaker.
David Robert Mitchell’s team behind the camera for WB’s The End of Oak Street includes director of photography Michael Gioulakis, production designer Maya Shimoguchi, editor John Axelrad, composer Michael Giacchino and costume designer Erin Benach.
