Overview

  • Sinners producers purchased at-cost period wardrobes originally crafted for Marvel’s stalled Blade reboot to dress background actors.
  • Oscar-winning designer Ruth Carter’s research and creations for Blade directly informed Sinners’ authentic 1930s look.
  • Most of the repurposed outfits were worn by extras, significantly reducing the film’s costume preparation timeline.
  • Since its April premiere, Sinners has grossed $364 million worldwide, making it one of the year’s highest-earning original horror films.
  • Blade was first announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2019 with Mahershala Ali attached but remains delayed despite Kevin Feige’s assurance that the character will eventually join the MCU.
