A synopsis reads: “After a mysterious cosmic event rips Oak Street from suburbia and transports their neighbourhood to someplace unknown, the Platt family soon discovers that their very survival depends on them sticking together as they navigate their now unrecognisable surroundings.”

Just this week, Warner Bros released a first look trailer, as they confirmed when viewers can watch the upcoming release. The film will premier in cinemas and IMAX on August 14.

Sharing the trailer on social media, many fans were quick to admit they were “hyped” as one person wrote on Instagram: “A film I had no idea about. Now I’m All about it!”

Another said: “Finally a new dinosaur movie is coming this year… Please be good!” A third simply added: “Was not expecting the dino,” as a fourth commented: “Wait what?! The dinosaur at the end threw me off lol.”

A third added: “This looks fantastic!! Dinosaurs and humans in unfortunate situations feels terrifying again!! Director of IT FOLLOWS.”

In the trailer, viewers witness a strange event that suddenly rips one neighbourhood out of reality and transported somewhere unknown. Anne Hathaway’s character can be heard saying: “I think our house, our neighbourhood, our whole street, has moved.”

In dramatic scenes, the family can then be seen being chased through what remains of their street by dinosaurs.

Having previously been known as “Flowervale Street”, the upcoming film has fans wondering if there will be any link or references to the Cloverfield franchise produced by J.J Abrams.
