Warner Bros. Turns to 'The End of Oak Street' After 2026 Slump of 'The Bride!,' 'Mortal Kombat II' and 'Supergirl'

Warner Bros. opens David Robert Mitchell's sci-fi thriller "The End of Oak Street" in theatres and IMAX on 14 August, needing a late-summer hit. Three 2026 releases — "The Bride!," "Mortal Kombat II" and "Supergirl" — misfired; only "Wuthering Heights" succeeded, per The Hollywood Reporter. The studio's 2025 slate was strong globally. First reactions landed 10 August via ScreenRant.
