Michael B. Jordan confronts bloody vampires in Sinners trailer

Sinners | Official Trailer 2

The supernatural comes in all forms in the latest trailer for Ryan Coogler’s 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 town’s residents. In particular, vampires, predominantly played by the white residents, dominate the trailer. The characters played by Jack O’Connell 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 the Sinners’ cast.

In a virtual press conference, Coogler revealed that vampires are not the only supernatural factors in Sinners.

“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 it’s not the only supernatural element in the movie. The film is about more than just that.”

Music will be a crucial element of Sinners. 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 family’s roots in Mississippi and his relationship with his late uncle James helped inspire Sinners. James passed away during post-production on Creed. Sinners is Coogler’s most personal film to date.

“It’s a love letter to the experience of watching an exhilarating movie in a packed house full of strangers, not knowing what’s going to happen next,” Coogler said.

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

Sinners opens in theaters on April 18, 2025.

Final Destination: Bloodlines teaser trailer: Welcome back, death
A skull has a chain hanging from its nose in Final Destination Bloodlines.

After a 14-year hiatus, the Final Destination franchise returns for a new chapter, Final Destination: Bloodlines, which promises to be as deadly as ever.

Warner Bros. has released the first teaser trailer for Final Destination: Bloodlines. The two-minute clip quickly reminded people of two of the franchise's stalwarts: no one is safe, and death is inevitable.
The teaser follows the life of a tattoo artist inside his shop. After piercing a client's tongue, the tattoo artist sits down to tattoo the word "Dad" on his wrist. Final Destination is famous for its elaborate death scenes, and this teaser sets up another brutal kill. The chain from a ceiling fan breaks and attaches itself to the artist's nose ring. The chain gets wrapped in the fan and pulls him closer to the ceiling. A light breaks onto the floor and lands in disinfectant, which starts a fire. The fan falls from the ceiling and sends the man with it to the floor and into the fire.
As for the actual story, the movie's plot details are being kept under wraps. The logline from Warner reads, "Plagued by a violent recurring nightmare, college student Stefanie heads home to track down the one person who might be able to break the cycle and save her family from the grisly demise that inevitably awaits them all."

Magazine Dreams trailer previews Jonathan Majors’ delayed bodybuilding drama
Jonathan Majors flexes his muscles into the mirror in Magazine Dreams.

Jonathan Majors is an aspiring bodybuilder whose determination pushes him toward self-destruction in Magazine Dreams, which received its first trailer from Briarcliff Entertainment.
Majors stars as Killian Maddox, a man who will do whatever it takes to become the next great bodybuilder of his generation. Maddox's obsession has negatively affected his personal life as he's unable to form meaningful connections with others. The dream of posing for magazines takes its toll on Killian, both physically and mentally. Is Killian willing to risk his livelihood to achieve this lofty goal?
"You have to do something big and important, or nobody will remember you when you're dead," Killian says in the trailer.
Besides Majors, Magazine Dreams stars Haley Bennett, Taylour Paige, Mike O'Hearn, Harriet Sansom Harris, and Harrison Page as Killian's ailing grandfather.
Written and directed by Elijah Bynum, Magazine Dreams premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival to a positive reception, with many critics predicting Majors' performance will garner significant Oscar buzz. After a competitive bidding war, Searchlight Pictures acquired distribution rights to the film and scheduled a December 2023 release.

In October 2023, Searchlight pulled Magazine Dreams from its release schedule due to the assault allegations against Majors. After Majors was convicted of two misdemeanor counts of assault and harassment in December 2023, Searchlight returned the film rights to the filmmakers to shop for other distributors. During that time, Marvel Studios fired Majors from all future projects.
As Kang the Conqueror, Majors was set to become the MCU's next major villain and headline Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars. After Majors' dismissal, Marvel pivoted creatively and cast Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom.
In October 2024, Briarcliff Entertainment acquired domestic distribution rights to Magazine Dreams. The sports drama is now scheduled to be released on March 21, 2025.
