Creative Team Delivers a Visually Immersive Experience
Sinners is both written and directed by Ryan Coogler, whose previous works, including Black Panther and Creed, have been met with critical acclaim. This latest project stands out for having been filmed on IMAX 70mm film stock, featuring enhanced symphonic audio and captivating visuals designed specifically for the immersive theater format.
Cast Brings Depth to Character-Driven Horror
Michael B. Jordan plays twin brothers, Smoke and Stack, who return home seeking a fresh start away from their past troubles, only to encounter deeper threats. The film’s ensemble also showcases Hailee Steinfeld, Jack O’Connell, Wunmi Mosaku, Jayme Lawson, Omar Benson Miller, and Delroy Lindo, each adding dimension to the storyline. Themes of homecoming, evil, and redemption weave through their performances.
Strong Box Office Performance and Critical Response
Upon its initial release in April, Sinners debuted at number one, earning $48 million in its first weekend and accumulating $367 million worldwide, making it one of the most successful horror films in box office history. The film’s appeal is credited in part to its intense character focus and impactful scares.
“The careful curation of character-building pays off dividends. When the horror kicks into high gear, the deaths come fast and furious. And the deaths devastate. Coogler’s first foray into horror shows a keen understanding that the key ingredient to ensuring the scares land and the suspense leaves you on edge is making you care about the characters.”
