Watched the best movie of the year (@sinnersmovie - the hype is real, go watch it!!), walked out of the toilet to come face to face with @tomcruise and Ana de Armas!' Cruise appreciated 'The Sinners' by posting his review and advising fans to stay till the end credits. 'Congratulations Ryan [Coogler], Michael [B. Jordan], and to the entire cast and crew. Must see in a cinema and stay through the end credits,' confirming the outing.

Tom and Ana's previous 'SPOTTED' moments Earlier this month, Ana and Tom were clicked by the photographers while they were getting out of the helicopter in London as they were returning from Madrid. Previously, when the debut spotting made a buzz during Valentine's Day, the insider stated, 'Everything with Tom and Ana is innocent. They are hanging out to talk about future movies that they could do together,' according to Daily Mail. 'One of those ideas is the Days of Thunder sequel that Tom wants to get off the ground. It is currently in its infancy. He's talking [to Paramount] about and it's going to be what comes together first in terms of a script. It depends on the idea and, ultimately, the script,' the report added.

Michael B. Jordan, 'The Sinners' actor, has been a fan favourite due to his impeccable acting skills, but is also admired for his jaw-dropping physique. While his body frame remains the same, Jordan has managed to achieve uniqueness in his flesh and bones for the specific roles. The insights from Corey Calliet, the trainer Jordan's long-time fitness trainer, Corey Calliet, gave a workout regime followed by the actor to achieve the perfect body. 'When we first started, he could barely bench 20lbs (10kg), his legs were flailing everywhere. He had nothing. He used to hate all this,' he revealed in an old interview, according to Men's Health Australia magazine. Corey has led Jordan to have an enviable physique that perfectly blends with the script.

Is 'The Sinners' based on a real story? Here's what the director, Ryan Coogler said
With 'The Sinners,' it's all coming up roses! The film has been the talk of the internet since its release, with the scenes that have the audience on a chokehold and the storyline that entranced even A-listers in Hollywood. Starring Michael B. Jordan in a double role (Smoke and Stack), the film also features Hailee Steinfeld, Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo, and Miles Caton. 'Trying to leave their troubled lives behind, twin brothers return to their Mississippi hometown to start again, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back,' according to the film synopsis. However, is the vampire-driven horror blockbuster based on a real story? Is 'The Sinners' based on a real story? Nope, the film is not based on a real story, but it has been inspired by the true events of the 1930s. The director, Ryan Coogler, stated that the plot is based on the stories that his late uncle James told him while he was growing up. While Coogler was shooting 'Creed' in Philadelphia, his uncle passed away, and to cope with the loss, he used to listen to the blues music that his uncle liked. In an interview with Indiewire, Coogler said, 'It all started with the fact that I would listen to that blues music to think about my uncle, and I thought, 'Man, who was he thinking about when he was listening to it?' Did he listen to that [music] and was it people that he was conjuring?' For inspiration, he connected with his 'trans-generational' community to understand their lifestyle, dating stories and working while they lived in Mississippi. Additionally, Ryan asked his grandmother about her first date with his grandfather. 'It made me realise the youthful nature of these people, their virility and vitality.' The inspiration behind the twins in the film In an interview with The Breakfast Club, Ryan disclosed his inspiration for the iconic twins in the film. 'They sit side by side, you know, I mean they are completely identical… you'll notice this about identical twins who [are] rolling around, a lot of times they'll be like touching each other,' Coogler said. 'And I'm looking and I say, 'Hey man, I noticed y'all be like touch each other… y'all close enough to each other to touch.' And they like, 'Yeah.' And I'm like, 'When y'all sit side by side like that, is that for me, or for y'all?' They said, 'It's for you',' he added. The 'Black Panther' director continued that the twins tend to do similar things to not throw off other people, as it gets uncomfortable. However, if they sense any danger, they split up in seconds.
