LOS ANGELES — A thrilling new trailer has dropped for The End of Oak Street, the highly anticipated sci-fi thriller starring Ewan McGregor and Anne Hathaway that promises a unique, high-stakes blend of prehistoric horror and suburban family survival.
Helmed by It Follows director David Robert Mitchell, the film centers on the Platt family after a mysterious cosmic event abruptly tears their quiet neighborhood out of modern reality and plunges it into a dangerous, prehistoric world.
The freshly released footage opens with a blinding, unexplained light engulfing the edge of a suburban block before total chaos erupts. Ewan McGregor stars as Greg, a father desperately attempting to protect his family alongside Denise, played by Anne Hathaway, as massive dinosaurs begin freely roaming the residential streets.
The trailer positions the film as a grounded survival horror, showcasing terrifying dinosaur attacks in broad daylight and widespread panic ripping through the community. Audiences are treated to a detailed look at the film’s prehistoric creatures, which notably include scientifically accurate feathered raptors and a massive, unidentified apex predator. Beyond the creature feature elements, the footage heavily emphasizes the emotional toll on the central characters, exploring how the family fractures and binds together under extreme psychological pressure.
The trailer’s release has already reignited widespread online speculation that the movie might be a secret installment in Bad Robot’s Cloverfield anthology universe. However, the new footage offers no explicit confirmation of a broader franchise tie-in, pointing instead toward a highly original, standalone cinematic experience.
Rounding out the star-studded ensemble cast alongside McGregor and Hathaway are Maisy Stella, Christian Convery, Jordan Alexa Davis, P.J. Byrne, and Chris Coy.
Boasting a volatile mix of cosmic mystery and visceral survival horror, The End of Oak Street is tracking to be one of the biggest theatrical events of the season when it hits cinemas worldwide on August 14, 2026.
