Christopher Nolan Advised Ryan Coogler to Use IMAX for Film 'Sinners'PreviousNext

Christopher Nolan encouraged filmmaker Ryan Coogler to shoot his 2025 vampire film Sinners using IMAX cameras after Coogler sought his advice on the format's suitability. Nolan, a longtime IMAX advocate, supported the decision and shared his experience with the technology. Coogler's film, produced by Warner Bros. and starring Michael B. Jordan, benefited from this guidance. Nolan's own upcoming film, The Odyssey, is the first to be shot entirely with IMAX cameras, highlighting advancements in large-format filmmaking.
