Sinners: release date, trailer, cast and everything we know about the Michael B. Jordan movie
Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler reunite for this "dance with the devil."
Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler have teamed up on a number of incredibly popular and successful movies — Fruitvale Station, Creed and Black Panther. They're back together again in a 2025 new movie that is sure to get fans excited: Sinners.
With the tantalizing line "you keep dancing with the devil, one day he's gonna follow you home" used in its early promotional materials, Sinners looks to be taking its 1930s period setting and pairing it with some kind of supernatural antagonist that at this point remains a mystery. Consider us intrigued.
