First Glance: “Sinners”

Ryan Coogler reteams with his favorite muse, Michael B. Jordan in “Sinners”, a movie that has been described as a supernatural gothic action horror film (whew, that’s a mouthful). Coogler and Jordan have already worked together on a range of films that includes “Fruitvale Station”, “Creed”, and “Black Panther”. The new trailer for their latest collaboration adds another unique entry into their catalog.

Set in 1930s Louisiana, “Sinners” sees Jordan playing a young man involved in a troubling event alongside his twin brother. The two return to their hometown in hopes of making a new start. But they find a sinister force waiting on them which sends them to someplace dark and unexpected. Hailee Steinfeld, Jack O’Connell, Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo, and Jayme Lawson also star. The trailer hints at a mysterious and compelling story. I can’t wait to see how it plays.

“Sinners” is set to release March 7, 2025. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.

  1. I saw this trailer yesterday and it looks scary as fuck. It’s already has me intrigued enough to consider having Ryan Coogler to be a subject for the Auteurs series next year once the film comes out. There’s just a few short films of his that I need to watch.

  2. it looks like a well made evil spirit movie but I might still see it in the hopes that it has more mystery or at least a neat twist, instead of just action.

  3. MBJ is one I will watch any movie he’s in. Forgive me for shifting your genres around, to SHAG. Quite a cast they have put together for this one. I will watch it, but in daylight only 🙂
