Ryan Coogler<\/a>\u2019s vampiric box office hit Sinners<\/a><\/em> is coming home to Max this summer. The film, starring Michael B. Jordan<\/a> and Hailee Steinfeld, will make its streaming debut on July 4.<\/p>\n

The Black Panther<\/a><\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Creed\u00a0<\/em>director\u00a0reunited with\u00a0Jordan for Sinners<\/em>, in which he plays identical twin gangsters Smoke and Stack. Set in 1932, the movie follows the brothers as they return home to Mississippi with the goal of using their ill-gotten money and booze to open a juke joint. But more is waiting for them than old flames and the Ku Klux Klan; their blues music attracts the attention of dark creatures, and the partygoers have to fight to survive until dawn.<\/p>\n

Sinners<\/em> also stars Miles Caton, Jack O\u2019Connell, Wunmi Mosaku, Jayme Lawson, Omar Miller, and Delroy Lindo. The movie bowed in theaters on April 18.<\/p>\n

A lot has been said about Sinners<\/em>, from bad faith reporting about its box office numbers<\/a>, its subsequent success domestically and internationally<\/a>, its Twilight Zone<\/em> inspirations<\/a>, and its place in the pantheon of Black vampire films<\/a>. However it comes up in discussion, through cultural conversations about vampires or recommending other media to consume after watching it<\/a>, Sinners<\/em> is now a staple in pop culture, no matter what flaws fans may find<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Whether Sinners<\/em> will come to Max before it\u2019s rebranded HBO Max<\/a> is still unclear.<\/p>\n
