David Robert Mitchell’s Dinosaur Thriller ‘The End of Oak Street’ Sets HBO Max Streaming Date


Warner Bros. Pictures’ sci-fi thriller “The End of Oak Street” will debut globally on HBO Max on Friday, Nov. 13, followed by a linear premiere on HBO on Saturday, Nov. 14, at 8 p.m. ET.

Directed by “It Follows” filmmaker David Robert Mitchell, the film stars Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor alongside Maisy Stella and Christian Convery. The story follows a suburban family whose quiet neighborhood is suddenly transported through time and space following a mysterious cosmic event. When prehistoric predators overrun their street, the family must stick together to survive their new, hostile environment.

The streaming release follows a solid summer theatrical run for the creature feature. Released in August, “The End of Oak Street” earned $122 million worldwide, anchored by a $21 million domestic opening weekend. Critical reception was generally positive, with reviewers praising the film’s tense, 1980s Amblin-inspired tone, strong central performance from Anne Hathaway, and distinct practical-meets-CGI dinosaur sequences, even as some critics took issue with its pacing and plot leaps.

J.J. Abrams, Hannah Minghella, Jon Cohen, Mitchell, Matt Jackson, and Tommy Harper produced the film. Executive producers include Chris Bender, Jake Weiner, Joanne Lee, and Leeann Stonebreaker.
