Michael B. Jordan Stars in New Supernatural Thriller 'Sinners'

The supernatural thriller genre is getting an electrifying start to 2025 with "Sinners," the latest collaboration between "Black Panther" director Ryan Coogler and actor Michael B. Jordan. The film's newest trailer debuted during Sunday's NFL playoff game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills, introducing viewers to its haunting tagline: "If you keep dancing with the devil, one day he'll follow you home."

Jordan Takes on Dual Role as Twin Brothers

In this supernatural thriller, Michael B. Jordan showcases his versatility by portraying twin brothers Elijah and Elias Smoke. The story follows these siblings as they return to their hometown seeking escape from their troubled lives, only to encounter a darkness far more sinister than what they left behind.


Star-Studded Cast and Creative Team

The film brings together an impressive ensemble featuring some of Hollywood's most talented actors. Alongside Jordan, the cast includes:

Hailee Steinfeld ("Bumblebee")

Jack O'Connell ("Unbroken")

Wunmi Mosaku ("Loki")

Jayme Lawson ("The Batman")

Omar Benson Miller ("8 Mile")

Delroy Lindo ("Da 5 Bloods")

Behind the Camera Excellence

Coogler has reunited with several key creative collaborators from "Black Panther" for this project. The film brings together cinematographer Autumn Durald Arkapaw, production designer Hannah Beachler, editor Michael P. Shawver, and Oscar-winning composer Ludwig Göransson.

A Glimpse into the Supernatural

The newly released clip offers a striking blend of music and horror elements. In a particularly memorable scene, a bluegrass trio (performed by Jack O'Connell, Lola Kirke, and Peter Dreimanis) delivers an eerie rendition of the folk song "Pick Poor Robin Clean" as they attempt to gain entry into the Smoke brothers' drinking establishment. Their performance sets a distinctively unsettling tone that perfectly captures the film's supernatural atmosphere.


Technical Achievement

Shot in IMAX format to enhance its visual impact, "Sinners" is scheduled for theatrical release on April 18, 2025. The film represents a significant technical achievement in supernatural thriller filmmaking, promising audiences an immersive experience through its premium format presentation.
