Ryan Coogler's Sinners has now become almost synonymous with breaking records. At the BAFTA ceremony, it has become one of the most awarded films, taking home three bronze masks out of its 13 nominations. And the vampire thriller continues to reach new heights, while collecting accolades on its way.

Now, ahead of its historic Oscars presence, Sinners made yet another historic win at the Actors Awards for Coogler.

Ryan Coogler’s Sinners won Best Cast in a Motion Picture at the Actors Awards. With this, the director became the first person to lead two different cast ensembles to victory at the ceremony, making him an even stronger contender at the Academy Awards. Moreover,  Coogler’s first win came with Black Panther, which also starred Michael B. Jordan.

This was a huge win, as Delroy Lindo described during the acceptance speech. The director was not present at the stage, but Lindo, speaking on behalf of the cast, praised Coogler. Now, this was not the only win for the Sinners. 

Michael B. Jordan, who played the twins Smoke and Stack in the movie, also took home the Best Actor award. His win at the Actors Awards also makes him a strong contender for the Oscars. Now, Sinners has already made quite an immense impression at the Academy Awards, even before it takes place.
