Sinners, Ryan Coogler’s latest vampire thriller starring Michael B Jordan in dual roles, is poised for a limited theatrical release. Following the success of Brad Pitt’s F1, which had a re-release in theatres after its initial blockbuster run, Sinners is anticipated to enjoy a similar reception upon its return to the big screen.
IMAX had announced that Sinners is returning to theatres for a week from October 30 and urged audiences to catch the critically acclaimed film on screen once again.
Sinners was released on April 18 this year amid high expectations and eventually won positive reviews and was critically and commercially acclaimed. Our CE review of the film read, "Sinners is replete with pulsating action and thrilling moments thanks to plenty of vampire-assisted gore. We also get philosophically dense conversations between vampires and humans. A vampire finally gets a hold of Sammy and as the Preacherboy desperately starts reciting Bible verses, the vampire joins him and then points to what he observes as absurdities and hypocrisies in theological safety nets."
Coogler's first original film since 2013's Fruitvale Station, Sinners tells the story of identical twins (Michael B Jordan in a dual role) who return to their hometown in Mississippi to start a juke joint. They are faced with a sinister supernatural evil and must strive to stay alive through the night along with their pals. Also starring Miles Caton, Hailee Steinfeld, Jack O'Connell, Omar Benson Miller, and Delroy Lindo, among others, Sinners reportedly grossed over $360 million from theatres worldwide. Longtime Coogler collaborator Ludwig Göransson composed the film's score and served as an executive producer.
