Geeking Out Is The Best @fangirlbaker - Tumblr Blog

People really need to take a wider view of this paranoia about age gaps and realise this is how we lose the ability to build communities. You need to be able to realise that people can have things in common with you even if they grew up in a different time/place/culture. You also need to realise you can build communities with people who don’t have obvious things in common with you, that people can have the same goals and needs as you even if in most ways they’re very unlike you. Now, more than ever, we need to be able to work together to have any chance to stand ip against the few who have so, so much more power, money and influence than any of us do individually. We need to form communities that reach across age (and class and race and sexuality and so on…).

At a SAG-AFTRA Foundation Conversations panel on December 14, 2024, at the Meryl Streep Center for the Performing Arts in Los Angeles, @ViolaDavis reframed the performance conversation around Sinners.

While the film is marketed as Michael B. Jordan playing dual roles, Davis argued the work is more precise than that:

he delivers three distinct performances.

• Elijah “Smoke” Moore — the older twin. Closed-off. Stoic. Grief held inward through posture and restraint.

• Elias “Stack” Moore — the younger twin. Charismatic. Business-minded. A man who smiles through his pain.

• Vampiric Stack — the transformation. Davis highlighted this as a third performance, praising the technique required to preserve Stack’s humanity even as he becomes a predator.

@MichaelBJordan shared that he worked with a dialect coach and wore different-sized shoes for each twin to subtly change his gait and physical center 👞 allowing him to switch identities on set without signaling the audience.

Davis also connected the film’s 1930s Mississippi setting to the historical sacrifices of Black ancestors, framing the story’s vampirism as both literal horror and generational metaphor.

The panel featured @WunmiMosaku and casting director @FrancineMaislercasting, discussing Ryan Coogler’s vision for blending horror with historical realism.

Jordan’s performance has since earned a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor.

The full conversation is available via the @SAGAFTRA Foundation.

This wasn’t a trick performance.

It was craft. 🤌🏾
