Tom Cruise has once again demonstrated his support for the cinematic experience, this time turning the spotlight on Ryan Coogler’s supernatural thriller Sinners. The Hollywood icon took to social media over the weekend, sharing a photo of himself standing in front of a theater poster for the film and holding up his movie ticket.

Cruise’s endorsement didn’t go unnoticed. Actor Michael B. Jordan, among others, responded enthusiastically, acknowledging Cruise’s influence and sharing his own excitement for the film. The interaction between the two stars ignited discussions across social platforms, with many applauding the sense of community and mutual respect among Hollywood’s elite.

This isn’t the first time Cruise has used his platform to promote other films. Since the success of Top Gun: Maverick, he has become an outspoken advocate for the theater-going experience, previously supporting titles such as Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny and Twisters. His latest shoutout is seen as both a genuine gesture of appreciation and a strategic move, coinciding with the upcoming release of his own film, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, set to hit theaters on May 23.

Sinners is a 2025 horror film created by Ryan Coogler, who took on the roles of writer, co-producer, and director. The film features Michael B. Jordan as twin brothers, Smoke and Stack, who return to their Southern hometown hoping for a fresh start—only to face an otherworldly menace. The supporting cast includes Hailee Steinfeld, Miles Caton, Jack O’Connell, Wunmi Mosaku, Jayme Lawson, Omar Miller, and Delroy Lindo.

With buzz growing and the support of major stars behind it, Sinners is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about releases of the season. And if Tom Cruise has his way, theaters may just see a fresh surge in moviegoers ready to answer his call.
