Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor Battle Dinosaurs in 'The End of Oak Street'

A new dinosaur adventure is heading to the big screen this summer.
Directed and written by David Robert Mitchell, 'The End of Oak Street' brings together Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor alongside young actors Maisy Stella and Christian Convery. The film follows the Platt family as a strange cosmic phenomenon tears their suburban neighborhood from its normal location and transports them to an otherworldly place. Forced to adapt to their drastically altered environment, the family must rely on one another to survive.
The release is scheduled for North American theaters and IMAX venues on August 14, with an international rollout beginning August 12.
Mitchell drew inspiration for the project from an unlikely source. While strolling through his Michigan neighborhood, he passed a garage with a chain-link fence and garbage cans—an ordinary suburban scene that sparked a creative idea. "I was struck by the image of, like, 'It'd be really interesting if there was a dinosaur right there,'" he shared with Entertainment Weekly.
The filmmaker acknowledged the legacy of dinosaur cinema while emphasizing his desire to chart new territory. "Just like anybody, the first Jurassic Park movie, I absolutely love," he explained. "But for me, my language of dinosaur movies goes back much further. I'd be lying if I say that that isn't a movie that I absolutely love because I do. But I wanted to do something different."
The trailer for the film is now available to watch.
