The End Of Oak Street | 2026
- DIRECTOR |
- David Robert Mitchell
The Eighties-set adventure takes place in fictitious 'Flowervale, Michigan', clearly in the suburb of Spielbergia where troubled middle-class families need the intervention of aliens or dinosaurs to bring them together.
It's filmed in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia.
Atlanta has become a major film-making hub, in part due to Marvel movies, and here its south and western suburbs neatly provide the perfect backdrop of quiet homes with spacious lawns.
Three separate neighbourhoods are blended together to become the little circle of land which finds itself suddenly transported back to the Mesozoic Era.
The home of the Platt family on 'Oak Street' is 4009 Wisteria Lane SW, north of Charter Oak Drive SW in Wisteria Gardens.
Yes, I was suspicious too until I checked the map. It seems primeval animals have taken over from those desperate housewives.
Studio sets were built at Electric Owl Studios, 3963 Redan Road near Decatur in DeKalb County, though not the interior of the Platt home.
London is mentioned among the film's locations but don't get excited if you're in the UK. No practical locations were used here but the home interior was built, and VFX were shot, in London.
Just south of the Wisteria Lane location, the neighbourhood party in the cul-de-sac with a circular grassy roundabout is held in Brook Way SW, off Dover Boulevard SW.
The home of Mrs Huddleston, the neighbour who gives Denise Platt (Anne Hathaway) advice with her novel, and where an odd plant springs up in her back garden, is 3790 Dover Court SW, the next cul-de-sac along Dover Boulevard SW.
More neighbourhood scenes were filmed on Howell Drive SW at the eastern end of Dover Boulevard SW.
Seemingly in the same little area, but a few miles east, more 'Flowervale' streets were filmed on Westwood Ave SW in Westwood Terrace; and further southeast to the Capitol View Manor district, on Erin Avenue SW and Manford Road SW.
