“Sinners” first-look trailer unleashes Michael B. Jordan as twins in Ryan Coogler horror movie
Jordan re-teams with the filmmaker, marking their fifth movie together as director and actor since "Fruitvale Station."
As promised by a creepy social media campaign that emerged online this week, "Sinners are coming."
Michael B. Jordan appears in the new Sinners trailer, marking the first look at his buzzed about but until now very mysterious horror movie with Ryan Coogler, his director on Fruitvale Station (2013), Creed (2015), Black Panther (2018), and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022).
Jordan stars as twins in this period piece set in the South. A cryptic logline explains the brothers tried to leave their troubled lives behind but return to their hometown for a fresh start, only to discover that "an even greater evil" is waiting to welcome them back. Early reports described the project as a vampire film.

"I've been all over this world. I've seen men die in ways I ain't even know was possible," Jordan says as one of the brothers. "Of all the things that I've seen, I ain't ever seen no demons, no ghosts, no magic...til now."
Sinners also stars Hailee Steinfeld, Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo, Jack O’Connell, Jayme Lawson, and Omar Benson Miller.
