News The End of Oak Street The End of Oak Street Trailer: Forget Traveling to Distant Islands; Dinosaurs Come to You Sledgehammers very useful in The Legend of Zelda; perhaps less so against dinosaurs By Molly Templeton | Published on June 1, 2026 Image: Warner Bros. Pictures Comment 0 Share New Share Image: Warner Bros. Pictures Once upon a time, one had to leave home and travel to the distant Isla Nublar in order to find oneself faced with a rampaging T. rex. No more! No, nowadays, you just have to live in the wrong suburb, and the dinosaurs will come to you. Sort of. Really it seems like the quaint suburban neighborhood of The End of Oak Street has itself traveled somewhere. But the Platt family did not have to leave their house. All the comforts of home—and pets whose lives are most certainly about to be threatened—plus dinosaurs. Somehow. Somewhere. Somewhen. Despite throwing some big dinosaur names into this trailer—you got your T. rex, you got your pterodactyls—Oak Street is still keeping some cards close to its chest. It’s clear that the Platts (played by Anne Hathaway, Ewan McGregor, Maisy Stella, and Christian Convery) are going to figure some things out and fight back. It’s less clear whether anyone else survives, or if there is a boundary to their newly displaced neighborhood, or even which decade this peculiar “cosmic event” happens in. The signs are mostly giving ’80s: that little plastic desk organizer absolutely everyone had, the Superman sheets, the boom box. I also feel like McGregory’s shorts are too short, and his collars too dramatic, for this to be fully of our own moment. So perhaps we’ve got a period film as well as time travel as well as dinosaurs. Sure, why not? The End of Oak Street is written and directed by David Robert Mitchell (It Follows, Under the Silver Lake). It’s in theaters (and IMAX!) on August 14.[end-mark] The post <i>The End of Oak Street</i> Trailer: Forget Traveling to Distant Islands; Dinosaurs Come to You appeared first on Reactor.
