After months of rumors and speculation, J.J. Abrams finally revealed whether his new film, The End of Oak Street, is part of the Cloverfield franchise. "The only connection to our Cloverfield movies is that Ewan’s partner is Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who was the star of 10 Cloverfield Lane, who we were very lucky to get to work with and who I adore. At the box office, 10 Cloverfield Lane earned $110 million. There is a Cloverfield sequel in development, so the speculation about The End of Oak Street makes sense. The End of Oak Street will be released in theaters on Friday, August 14, 2026.
