The supernatural comes in all forms in the latest trailer for Ryan Cooglers Sinners.

Michael B. Jordan is at the center of Sinners, playing twins who return to their hometown looking for a fresh start and reprieve from their troubled lives. The brothers quickly learn sinister forces are at play with some of the towns residents. In particular, vampires, predominantly played by the white residents, dominate the trailer. The characters played by Jack OConnell and Hailee Steinfeld are covered in blood at various points in the footage, with the latter manically telling Jordan that she will kill every last one of you.

Wunmi Mosaku, Jayme Lawson, Omar Benson Miller, and Delroy Lindo round out theSinnerscast.

The film is very genre fluid, Coogler said via THR. It switches in and out of a lot of different genres. Yes, vampires are an element, but its not the only supernatural element in the movie. The film is about more than just that.

Music will be a crucial element ofSinners. The footage teases the development of the Blues as Black people dance enthusiastically inside a barn, only to be interrupted by a group of malicious white vampires.

Coogler mentioned how his familys roots in Mississippi and his relationship with his late uncle James helped inspire Sinners. James passed away during post-production on Creed.Sinners is Cooglers most personal film to date.

Its a love letter to the experience of watching an exhilarating movie in a packed house full of strangers, not knowing whats going to happen next, Coogler said.

Coogler is the writer and director ofSinners and produces alongside Sev Ohanian and Zinzi Coogler. Executive producers include Will Greenfield and Rebecca Cho. Ludwig Gransson, Cooglers frequent collaborator and composer on Sinners, earned an executive producer credit.

Sinnersopens in theaters on April 18, 2025.
