Overview

  • Jordan credits Denzel Washington’s advice—“Why would they pay to see you on a weekend if they see you all week for free?”—for his decision to keep a minimal social media presence.
  • He maintains a single Instagram account with 25 million followers but limits posts to press tours in order to preserve audience demand.
  • Sinners,’ Jordan’s latest collaboration with Ryan Coogler, has grossed $350 million worldwide since its early 2025 theatrical release.
  • The film reunites Jordan and Coogler following Fruitvale Station, Creed and Black Panther and features a period-set supernatural thriller narrative.
  • Warner Bros. will extend the film’s reach with a digital release and 4K UHD, Blu-ray and DVD editions due on July 8.
