The first trailer for Sinners, the much-anticipated film directed by Ryan Coogler and starring Michael B. Jordan, has finally dropped ahead of its March 7, 2025, release by Warner Bros. The movie, set in the 1930s Jim Crow-era South, was filmed earlier this year in New Orleans and has generated considerable buzz since its initial announcement in January.
Michael B. Jordan, who has worked with Coogler in all five of their previous collaborations, sparked fan excitement by sharing a poster of himself in two distinct costumes, hinting at a dual role portraying twins. Jordan’s cryptic caption, “Dance with the devil… and he’ll follow you home,” has only added to the intrigue surrounding the film.
The film boasts an impressive cast including Delroy Lindo, Jack O’Connell, Hailee Steinfeld, Omar Benson Miller, Wunmi Mosaku, and others. Coogler, known for his celebrated work on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, has taken on Sinners as his first directorial project since 2022. The film was produced under his Proximity Media banner, alongside Zinzi Coogler and Sev Ohanian, with Ludwig Göransson and Rebecca Cho serving as executive producers.
The project landed at Warner Bros. following a competitive bidding war, reuniting the studio with Coogler and Jordan after their success with Creed III. Early visuals from Sinners suggest a unique and thrilling take on horror, positioning the film as one of 2025’s most exciting releases. Fans eagerly await the fresh approach Coogler and Jordan will bring to the genre.
