UPDATE: The acclaimed horror film Sinners, directed by Ryan Coogler, is set to return to select IMAX theaters starting October 30, 2025. This limited engagement runs for just one week, concluding on November 5, 2025, making this a must-see event for horror enthusiasts.
Fans of the genre can rejoice as Sinners re-emerges on the big screen just in time for Halloween. This visually stunning vampire film offers audiences an exhilarating chance to experience its heart-stopping thrills in IMAX for the first time. The original theatrical run was cut short, as Disney’s Thunderbolts took over IMAX screens shortly after its release, making this exclusive engagement a rare opportunity for both returning viewers and newcomers.
Coogler, known for his impressive work in both Creed and Black Panther, combines horror with emotional depth in Sinners. The film explores themes of family trauma and lost love, featuring Michael B. Jordan in dual roles as twins Smoke and Stack. Coogler expressed pride in Jordan’s performance, stating, “We asked him to do this difficult thing technically, playing two different characters…to see him recognized by his peers means a lot to him.”
As excitement builds for the IMAX return, Coogler’s journey in the horror genre doesn’t end here. He has announced plans for a reboot of The X-Files, a project close to his heart, particularly as it connects to his relationship with his mother. “My mom means the world to me…I want to do right by her and the fans,” Coogler noted.
This is a pivotal moment for horror fans and film lovers alike. If you missed Sinners during its first run, now is your chance to experience this thrilling tale in an extraordinary format. With its combination of horror and heartfelt storytelling, Sinners promises to be a highlight of your October.
Mark your calendars for October 30 to catch this cinematic gem in IMAX! Share the news with fellow horror fans and prepare for a week of spine-tingling excitement!
