Ryan Coogler’s Michael B. Jordan-Starring ‘Sinners’ Becomes First Horror Film With “A” CinemaScore

by

Ryan Coogler’s movie titled “Sinners” is on track to become a significant box office success for Warner Bros. The horror film, led by Michael B. Jordan, has outperformed predictions, earning an impressive $45 million USD during the Easter weekend at the box office.

The movie titled “Sinners” is situated in the Mississippi Delta during 1932. In this chilling tale, Jordan plays a pair of twin brothers who encounter a supernatural entity upon their return home, seeking a new beginning. Joining Jordan on screen are Hailee Steinfeld, Miles Caton, Jack O’Connell, Wunmi Mosaku, Jayme Lawson, Omar Miller, Buddy Guy, and Delroy Lindo as part of the talented cast. The buzz around this film is justified, as “Sinners” has made history by being the first horror film to receive an “A” CinemaScore.

Previously, many horror films have come close to receiving an “A” ranking but fell just short. Movies such as A Quiet Place and Five Nights at Freddy’s earned a B+, while Get Out, The Lost Boys, The Conjuring, The Conjuring 2, A Quiet Place Part II, and Child’s Play 2 all received an A-. However, none of these films have managed to surpass what Coogler has accomplished with Sinners. Initially predicted to open at around $30 million USD, the film is now expected to gross a remarkable $45 million USD worldwide. This is significant news for Warner Bros., as it marks the first time in over a decade that the studio has had two films earning over $40 million USD, and only the second time they have dominated the Easter weekend box office with the top two films, alongside A Minecraft Movie featuring Jack Black and Jason Momoa.
