Do not skip 'Sinners' in theaters!]]>
<![CDATA[

Sinners is the movie of the moment. Ryan Coogler’s period vampire action horror has been dazzling critics and audiences around the world since its premiere a week ago. The movie combines pointed social commentary with bloody action, awesome music, and wall-to-wall excellent performances, and it’s become a future awards season darling overnight. x3z29

Exceptionally strong word-of-mouth has also seen a minuscule 6% second-week box office dropoff, meaning Sinners’ success should continue to snowball over the coming weeks. Along the way, it’s picked up one very notable fan: Mission: Impossible star Tom Cruise, who took to X to praise the cast and crew and underline that it’s a “must see in a cinema”:

Cruise is absolutely right. Despite naysayers predicting the end of the theatrical experience, Sinners is intended to be watched on a huge screen with a thumping sound system, surrounded by other people. Coogler shot Sinners on IMAX 70mm “with optimized symphonic sound design” for those theaters and – as someone lucky enough to see it on IMAX 70mm – I can confirm the hype is real. This was one of the best moviegoing experiences I’ve had in years.

The critical and box office success means Michael B. Jordan is on cloud nine right now, but the cherry on top is Cruise’s praise. Taking to Instagram stories, he reshared Cruise’s post with a mind-blown emoji and a stunned “Nah this is crazy…” comment.

Cruise’s praise is particularly notable as his Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is just weeks away from release and may end up in direct competition with Sinners. Both movies are intended to be seen on IMAX screens, meaning that theoretically they may end up battling for time and space on the format.

But Cruise has clearly concluded that one IMAX movie doing big numbers is good for everyone. After all, Sinners positioning the format as the “true” way to experience the movie has seen sold-out screenings around the world, and many of those attending will be IMAX newbies. There’s a barnstorming The Final Reckoning trailer running before Sinners, so he’ll be hoping those blown away by Coogler’s movie will return in a few weeks for his.

In the meantime, if you still haven’t seen Sinners, you absolutely should. It’d be a great movie however you watch it, though the full-frame 70mm sequences are jaw-dropping on an IMAX screen, and *that* scene (if you’ve seen it you know the one I’m talking about) is one of the most impressive things I’ve seen in a cinema since Mad Max: Fury Road all those years ago.

‘Jonathan Majors mad as hell rn’ 6p45i We need to talk about a fired Marvel star trending over a movie he wasn’t even cast in https://wegotthiscovered.moviesx.org/celebrities/why-did-jonathan-majors-trend-after-ryan-cooglers-sinners-trailer-dropped/ https://wegotthiscovered.moviesx.org/celebrities/why-did-jonathan-majors-trend-after-ryan-cooglers-sinners-trailer-dropped/#respond <![CDATA[Charlotte Simmons]]> Tue, 24 Sep 2024 19:35:56 +0000 <![CDATA[Celebrities]]> <![CDATA[Movies]]> <![CDATA[News]]> <![CDATA[Jonathan majors]]> <![CDATA[MCU]]> <![CDATA[Michael B.

Warner Bros. has been on a rock-solid roll with its trailers lately. After last week gave us our first proper peek at Bong Joon-ho’s Mickey 17, Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan have emerged this week with Sinners, which just happens to be the duo’s vampire movie we’ve been hearing whispers about for the last little while.

Let’s all say it together: this trailer is absolutely oozing with cinematic hype. The dramatic intensity and morbid mystery of it all speaks for itself, but anchoring it all is the promise that Coogler — the filmmaker who earned the superhero film genre its first-ever Academy Award Best Picture nomination with Black Panther — is about to emerge from the kitchen once again, and when Coogler cooks, we all eat.

So why on Earth did Jonathan Majors, who has absolutely nothing to do with Sinners, start trending on X following the trailer’s release?

Indeed, between false claims that Coogler cast Majors in the film, suggesting that it was supposed to star Majors, and trying to link Jordan’s role in this film with his once-friendship with Majors, the internet is bending over backward trying to make the Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania star relevant again.

Majors does, of course, have a history with the two creatives. The actor collaborated with the pair on Creed III, which Jordan starred, directed, and produced, and which Coogler produced and was given story credit on. And while a Twitter bot with a lot of time on its hands could maybe spin this into Coogler and Jordan moving on from Majors, it’s such a gross narrative stretch that it hardly bears mentioning.

Would Majors have been a good fit for Sinners? Yes, probably; he’s proven time and time again to be a fantastic actor. In fact, he’d be a good fit for a lot of movies that he was never cast in, but he wasn’t cast in them because he’s currently undergoing a 52-week, in-person domestic violence intervention program as of April earlier this year.

Some will call Majors an idiot for ruining his career and depriving us of potential performances in films like Sinners. Others will say he should have been cast in Sinners regardless of what’s going on with him right now. Others still will continue to demonize him for what we’ve heard about him in the wake of his arrest, trial, and sentencing.

All of those things are a complete and utter waste of time, because the overwhelming majority of such folks spewing such sentiments have absolutely no stake — personal, professional, or otherwise — in the life of Jonathan Majors. In all likelihood, he’s too preoccupied with the intervention program to be “mad as hell” about something with which he wasn’t involved in the first place, but so long as the denizens of X need to fill their days with useless opinions about drama they couldn’t be less involved in, Majors’ name will keep coming up any time there’s an in for it.

Majors may act again, he may not. He may grow as a person, he may not. He may have been forgiven by the people he’s wronged, he may not have been. Bottom line? Majors’ life is his own, and you need to find better things to do than think about it.

In fact, one of those things can be how awesome Coogler’s new movie is going to be; a statement that will be proven true once Sinners releases to theaters on March 7, 2025.

Mahershala Ali fans, Marvel fans, vampire-heads… We’re all desperate to get news about this new Blade movie that is looking more unlikely to get made by the day. Luckily, Black Panther alumni Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan took matters into their own hands and gave us the Blade prequel we didn’t know we needed.

What if we told you Killmonger’s ancestor was a vampire and maybe even Blade’s Maker? And Kate Bishop’s great-grandmother was involved in some way… We’re still ironing out the details, okay? But this is our pitch to make Coogler and Jordan‘s movie Sinners an official part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, since we’re beginning to get real pessimistic about the future of Blade.

Could Sinners be the reason Blade hasn’t been able to get off the ground? 44i6l

While we’re sure Coogler and Jordan — who are frequent collaborators and friends and have also worked together in both Creed and Coogler’s first movie Fruitvale Station — are eager to step outside the Marvel world and carve their own path in the industry with an original IP film, we’re afraid the crossover potential with Blade is just too great. And fans are noticing it too.

“So, Disney can’t get a Blade made, but Warner Brothers allowed for Ryan Coogler and Michael B Jordan to produce their own Vampire film that will “eventually” be owned by Coogler after a few years. This is a level of pettiness that needs to be seen to believe,” one media commentator astutely observed. Is this personal for the DC Comics parent company?

Others have theorized that releasing Blade so close to Sinners would have been a marketing nightmare and could be a reason behind the Marvel film’s strange delay. Delroy Lindo, who was announced as part of Blade‘s cast early on and then ed the Sinners ensemble, exited the former in June, right in the middle of production for the latter.

Sinners was ultimately pitched, sold, filmed, and promoted faster than Marvel could finish the Blade script or find a director. Six writers and two directors have worked on the project so far, though no filmmaker is attached to it at present, and it’s unsure whether the most recent draft — from the mind of loyal Marvel scribe Eric Pearson, who’s worked on nearly every Marvel film of the last decade — will be the screenplay’s final version.

The last we heard of Blade‘s status came from Feige himself, who reassured fans the studio was “so committed to [the movie] that we’re not going to make it until it’s right.” A recent report claimed Marvel would make a final decision about the film by the end of 2024. Keep in mind this film was announced in 2019, and originally given a 2023 release date, but at least Mahershala Ali and Mia Goth are still interested.

What we know about Sinners 6n2u1k

Sinners was kept a secret for most of its production, and, for a while, all we knew was that it would be a “period thriller (some have said it takes place in the Jim Crow-era South) involving the undead,” per The Hollywood Reporter. Rumors of vampires were also rampant. Now, Warner Bros. has released its first trailer and it looks really good (albeit cryptic and confusing — as any good trailer should be).

The official synopsis, shared on X by film reporter Erik Davis, says the film will follow twin brothers, both played by Jordan, who will try to “leave their troubled lives behind.” When they return to their hometown to “start again,” however, they discover “an even greater evil waiting to welcome them back.” Hailee Steinfeld, Delroy Lindo, Wunmi Mosaku, Jayme Lawson, and Omar Benson Miller also star, with Jack O’Connell playing the villain.

Warner Bros. was the ultimate winner of a fierce bidding war for Sinners, which will hit theaters in the United States March 7, 2025. Back in May, we picked it as one of our most anticipated original movies releasing next year.
