Overview
- Coogler told Proximity Media that the twins killed their father, hid at Mary’s mother’s home, then went to New York, enlisted, and fought in France before briefly returning.
- He said the brothers then split for roughly three years, with Smoke settling with Annie and Stack pairing with Mary in Little Rock.
- According to Coogler, the loss of Smoke and Annie’s daughter strained relationships and prompted both brothers to leave their partners for Chicago.
- The film opens after that period, with the twins coming home from Chicago and using stolen money to try to start anew without detailing every earlier step on screen.
- Sinners has 16 Oscar nominations including Best Picture and Best Director, and Michael B. Jordan is up for Best Actor at both the Oscars and BAFTA.
