The trailer for The End of Oak Street has been released, offering a first look at the new sci-fi mystery from writer and director David Robert Mitchell.
Warner Bros. is positioning the movie as a theatrical and IMAX event, with the trailer teasing a suburban neighborhood ripped out of the real world and dropped into something far stranger. The footage centers on the Platt family as they try to survive after a mysterious cosmic event transforms everything around them.

The setup is simple but strong. As the trailer puts it, “Our house, our neighborhood, our whole street has moved.”
According to the official synopsis, a mysterious cosmic event rips Oak Street from suburbia and transports the neighborhood to an unknown place. The Platt family then learns that surviving depends on sticking together while they deal with their bizarre new surroundings.
The trailer leans into that mystery with unsettling imagery and a big-screen tone that feels built for IMAX.
