Sinners" made history Thursday morning, picking up a record 16 Oscar nominations.
The horror film, released in April 2025, earned nominations in several categories, including best picture and best director and best acting nominations for three of its stars -- Michael B. Jordan, Wunmi Mosaku and Delroy Lindo.
Sinners" stars Jordan (as Smoke and Stack), Hailee Steinfeld (as Mary), Miles Caton (as Sammie), Jack O'Connell (as Remmick), Mosaku (as Annie), Jayme Lawson (as Pearline), Omar Benson Miller (as Cornbread) and Lindo (as Delta Slim).
Peter Dreimanis (Bert), Lola Kirke (Joan), Li Jun Li (Grace), Yao (Bo), Saul Williams (Jedidiah), David Maldonado (Hogwood), Helena Hu (Lisa), Andrene Ward-Hammond (Ruthie), Nathaniel Arcand (Chayton) and Emonie Ellison (Therise) play supporting roles.
Legendary blues guitarist Buddy Guy also appears in the film.
Ryan Coogler, who directed 2013's "Fruitvale Station," 2015's "Creed," 2018's "Black Panther," and 2022's "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," is the director of "Sinners." He also wrote the film -- serving as producer alongside his wife Zinzi Coogler and frequent collaborator Sev Ohanian -- and said it is a "love letter" to his late uncle, who died in 2015.
Coogler told "Good Morning America" in December 2025 that making the horror action movie was "a little nerve-wracking," in part because he felt he was "opening [himself] up to the audience completely for the first time."
