A Quick Refresh of Who’s Who

Even though the main cast feels like family at this point, some folks might need to remember who was who, so let’s get into it:
Smoke/Stack- Michael B. Jordan
Sammie “Preacherboy” Moore- Miles Caton
Annie- Wunmi Mosaku
Mary- Hailee Steinfeld
Delta Slim- Delroy Lindo
Jayme Lawson- Pearline
Remmick the Vampire- Jack O’Connell
Cornbread- Omar Benson Miller
Ryan Coogler- “The X-Files”

Now that Ryan Coogler has officially taken off his “Sinners” hat, he’ll be diving into a remake of the “The X-Files” for his next TV project. The news that he’d be helming the reboot was initially released in 2023, but the acclaimed director confirmed in April 2025 that this project was the next on his docket.
“I’ve been excited about that for a long time and I’m fired up to get back to it,” Coogler said during an interview with “Last Podcast on the Left.” “Some of those episodes, if we do our jobs right, will be really fucking scary.”
Ryan Coogler- “Black Panther 3”

Back on the film front, Coogler will be going for a threepeat for the third installment of the “Black Panther “franchise. He confirmed that the movie is next up as far as movies go and he also confirmed that acting legend Denzel Washington would be playing a role in it somehow–though he kept those details to a minimum. If you’ll remember, Washington teased to The Root that he was in talks with Coogler for an upcoming project, but he stopped short of revealing that it was “Black Panther 3. “We can’t wait for that one!
Michael B. Jordan- “The Thomas Crown Affair”

Michael B. Jordan will be leaving his Southern-Mississippi accent back in Clarksdale for his upcoming heist, thriller movie “The Thomas Crown Affair.” The new “reimagining” of the popular 1968 and later 1999 film is set to see Jordan star as “a billionaire who steals a painting from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and is pursued by an insurance investigator only to see them fall in love,” per The Hollywood Reporter.
Michael B. Jordan- “Swapped”

While we won’t necessarily get to see Jordan in this new film, “Swapped” we will hear his voice as he’s taking a detour into the world of animated buddy comedy. The forthcoming Netflix film is set to drop some time in 2026 and follows Jordan as a small woodland creature and a majestic bird (voiced by Juno Temple)—”natural sworn enemies of The Valley—who suddenly swap bodies and must team up (while walking in each other’s feathers and fur) to survive the wildest adventure of their lives,” per the streamer’s official synopsis.
Wunmi Mosaku- “The Social Reckoning”

While Wunmi Mosaku’s Annie will live in our hearts forever, we do have to let her go so we can see Mosaku shine in other films. The next one will be a role in “The Social Reckoning,” a “companion piece” to 2010, Oscar-winning film “The Social Network”–which told the story of how Facebook came to be. Aaron Sorkin is set to direct and it’s set to hit theaters on Oct. 9.
Wunmi Mosaku- “The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd”

While not much is known about Mosaku’s character in the upcoming prison break thriller, “The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd,” we do know that her character’s name is Gladys, per IMDB. The official film synopsis is as followed:
“A teacher in an abusive marriage who takes a job at a maximum security prison, where she falls for a charismatic inmate. The disastrous consequences call into question not only the nature of punishment and retribution, but the very limits of our humanity.”
Filming reportedly wrapped in August 2025 and this sounds interesting enough, so consider us seated!
Miles Caton- Undisclosed Film and New Music

Miles Caton may still be buzzing about his recent Critics Choice win, but he’s got a whole lot more to look forward to including an undisclosed film, which he let on about to The Contending in November 2025. He also let on that he’s got a forthcoming EP releasing so if you couldn’t get enough of his deep, soulful singing–you’re about to get blessed again soon!
Delroy Lindo- “Godzilla X Kong: Supernova”

The acting GOAT that is Delroy Lindo will be coming back to our big screens on March 26, 2027 in a completely different movie that still somehow involves some serious villains. If you don’t know, we’re talking about the upcoming “Godzilla X Kong: Supernova” which will see the famed mutated dinosaur go up against the giant ape once more. (For what it’s worth, Mr. Delroy, sir, can we also get you to sign on to sequel to “This Christmas?” We need to see what the Whitmore family is up to nowadays.)
Hailee Steinfeld- “Winter Games”

Along with getting ready to welcome her new bundle of joy soon, Hailee Steinfeld has also been cast in the new film “Winter Games,” starring opposite Miles Teller. Per Deadline, the film will tell the story of “a perpetually overlooked skier (Steinfeld) and a self-sabotaging hockey legend (Teller) who collide at their breaking points. Their unexpected connection threatens her chance for a medal and his shot at a comeback as they navigate romance and redemption in the Olympic Village.” The film is expected some time in 2026.
Hailee Steinfeld- “Spider-Man: Beyond the Spiderverse”

Fans of Spider-Man will be pleased to know that Steinfeld will be reprising her role as Spider-Gwen in the highly anticipated, animated film, “Spider-Man: Beyond the Spiderverse.” The movie is slated to hit theaters June 4, 2027.
Jack O’Connell- “Godzilla X Kong: Supernova”

Don’t call it a “Sinners” reunion–well, we guess you might as well. Why? That’s because Jack O’Connell will be acting alongside Lindo in the aforementioned “Godzilla X Kong: Supernova” movie. Much like his former castmate, details of their roles are unknown at this point, but we can bet they’ll both be good regardless.
Jack O’Connell- “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple”

Before we get to see O’Connell face off in between a dinosaur and an ape, he’ll return to the 28 Years Later franchise for the followup film, “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple.” The film is expected to drop on Jan. 16 in theaters and will see him reprise his role as cult leader Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal.
