Coogler and Jordan's Vampire Movie Sparks Bidding War Among Major Studios

The film, set for a summer 2024 production start, is the first new property from the duo since Fruitvale Station.

Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan are collaborating on a new vampire movie, which has sparked a bidding war among Sony, Warner Bros., and Universal Studios.
The movie, which is set to go into production in summer 2024, is expected to have a budget of around $90 million.
The film is described as a period-genre film and a major starring vehicle for Michael B. Jordan.
The project is the first entirely new property Coogler and Jordan have worked on together since Fruitvale Station.
Despite the interest from major studios, the filmmakers are committed to a global theatrical release, potentially ruling out streaming platforms.
