Michael B. Jordan woke up Thursday to a milestone: his first Oscar nomination, and a movie that just rewrote the record books. Jordan’s film Sinners, a genre-bending gangster vampire musical directed by frequent collaborator Ryan Coogler, scored 16 Academy Award nominations for the 98th Oscars, surpassing the previous high of 14 shared by Titanic, La La Land, and All About Eve. Jordan is nominated for his dual role as Mississippi twins Smoke and Stack, performances he calls „a love letter“ to his grandparents, ancestors, and others with Deep South roots.
