Unveiling Flowervale Street

As reported by Deadline and originally appearing on JoBlo.com, the forthcoming feature from Warner Bros, Jackson Pictures, and Bad Robot has been officially christened “Flowervale Street.” The movie venture, from It Follows director David Robert Mitchell, will hit the big screen on May 16, 2025.
A Star-Studded Cast
Flowervale Street, unmentioned until recent days, has been stirring curiosity since the involvement of notable stars was reported. Academy Award winner Anne Hathaway was the first to sign on alongside Ewan McGregor, Maisy Stella, and Christian Convery. The project was held in secrecy, fueling speculation and anticipation.
Trail of Specs and Predictions
While the exact plotline remains shrouded, film journalist Jeff Sneider hypothesized that the project might be a “dinosaur movie set in the ’80s.” The Hollywood Reporter also hinted at a similar line. The publication’s sources painted an image of “a family adventure set in the 1980s that involves dinosaurs.” Hathaway and McGregor are confirmed to be portraying the parents, with Stella and Convery assumed to take on the roles of their children.
Deadline’s sources termed the project as a thrilling experience, with IMAX augmenting the overall cinematic impact. The mystery continues with the title “Flowervale Street” stably reminiscent of Cloverfield Lane, adding to Bad Robot’s traditional secret-keeping style.
The Director’s Journey: David Robert Mitchell
David Robert Mitchell, the visionary spearheading this hush-hush narrative, entered the film domain with the 2010 feature, ‘The Myth of the American Sleepover.’ He clinched a spot in Hollywood’s promising directors with his acclaimed hit ‘It Follows.’ Though there was a slight hiccup with his 2018 project ‘Under the Silver Lake,’ it seems Mitchell is bouncing back with ‘Flowervale Street’ and the hotly anticipated ‘It Follows’ sequel, ‘They Follow.’
An Optimistic Prospect
Despite the veil of secrecy, the expectations for ‘Flowervale Street’ are soaring. The project’s considerable momentum and collaboration with a formidable cast and crew show promise. However, hopes hinge on Warner Bros, as the production is under their helm, and the risk of it being scrapped for tax write-offs looms.
Towing the Line of Secrecy
Secrecy is a popular trademark of Bad Robot productions. Their cloak-and-dagger approach has been a potent element in piquing audience interest. Flowervale Street follows suit, with much of its plot detail and character arcs carefully guarded.
