One Of Sinners’ Biggest Moments Was Added Last Minute To The Script

Sinners star Wunmi Mosaku, who plays Annie in the film, revealed that the best moment in the movie was actually added to the script at the last minute.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Mosaku claimed that Sammie’s musical number at Club Juke, which shows many different eras of music, was not in the original script that she read. Read her full comment below:

Absolutely not, but the script changed from the time I auditioned to the read-through with the cast. The script I got two days before the read-through had the past and future ancestors in the scene, and I got chills. That extra detail, I was like, “Wow, this man is a genius.” Ryan is so brilliant that he took what I thought was already a perfect script and elevated it in such a way. So, when we got to the read-through, it was so powerful, and we were all in tears, especially hearing Miles sing for the first time.

So I don’t think doubt ever crept into any of our minds from the moment we heard Ryan Coogler was doing an original project. He is such a keeper of culture and cinema, and now, music. He just thinks so deeply that doubt never crossed my mind while being involved in this, and I can guarantee that every single actor and crew member felt the same.

More to come…
