In this live panel, we’ll dissect how this team approached Sinners, which, on paper, was ultra-risky.
We’ll learn how they brought the intense verité of the 1931 Mississippi Delta to life. And how they contended with and planned for the stunning decision to have Michael B. Jordan play two characters. And what it took to pull together the longest ever unbroken long-take in IMAX history.
All 3 of our panelists are in consideration for an Oscar.
The event will include a Q&A.
