‘Sinners’ Blazes Past Its First Domestic Box Office Milestone

Exceeding both expectations and projections, director Ryan Coogler's Sinners had a blockbuster opening this past weekend. The movie out-performed A Quiet Place: Part II's opening weekend haul, delivering the number one debut for an R-rated horror film in the post-pandemic era. It's now passing the $50 million milestone at the domestic box office, and will enter its second weekend of release with a clear goal of passing the coveted $100 million mark. Sinners reunites Coogler with his frequent collaborator Michael B. Jordan, and has emerged as the top-rated film of his already acclaimed career.
