Exclusive: Hailee Steinfeld reflects on emotional personal connection to Sinners

BBG News

This week, you can catch Hailee Steinfeld once again gracing the silver screen in the chilling new horror film titled “Sinners“. The role provided her an intriguing opportunity to delve into her ancestral roots.

In simpler terms, the grandparent of the star on his mother’s side was both Filipino and African American. Despite not having a chance to discuss the movie with him, these origins sparked conversations within Steinfeld’s family.

These interactions sparked numerous heartwarming, enlightening, and ongoing discussions with my family, particularly my mother. This is what she shared with Digital Spy.

This film presents thought-provoking topics that may leave you pondering broader implications long after viewing. As it happens, a person who holds significant meaning in my life – my grandfather – is not here to discuss these very subjects with me. If he were alive, there are queries I’d want to pose to him regarding the movie’s themes.

I discussed this very topic with my mom last night, gaining more insight into it. Last night’s filming took place at a train station that was far more unique and different from what I had envisioned.

Gazing at this exquisitely crafted collection, one can’t help but wonder about the trials and hardships endured by our forebears, which ultimately led to our current existence and the lives we lead today.

It wasn’t just Steinfeld; other cast members of the film Sinners also formed unforeseen connections with the movie.

In a surprising twist, Jack O’Connell had to revive his Irish dancing abilities from childhood for the role of the antagonist, Remmick – something that would likely astonish his younger self.

As a child, when I was involved in Irish dancing (which was at an age as young as 6 or 7), I might have wondered, ‘What possible advantage could this bring to me?’, but looking back, it has indeed proven to be quite beneficial.

“Jumping Jack, rolling back the years.”

Before the premiere of “Sinners“, it was disclosed that Miles Caton picked up the guitar specifically for the film, as he had no previous experience with it.

Sinners is released in cinemas on 18 April.
