Michael B. Jordan won his first Oscar for best actor at the 98th Academy Awards for his dual role in “Sinners,” a film that also earned four awards, including best original screenplay for director Ryan Coogler. Although “Sinners” lost the best picture award to “One Battle After Another,” Jordan praised Coogler as a collaborator and friend during his acceptance speech. The film, set in 1930s Mississippi amidst a vampire apocalypse, highlights Jordan’s rise from child actor to Hollywood star.
