The movie Sinners had a production budget of approximately $90 million initially, which is considered quite high for a horror genre film
. However, during production, the budget reportedly increased to around $100 million due to some setbacks and overruns
. Director Ryan Coogler even covered about $20 million of the budget overruns out of his own fees and backend compensation
. In summary:
- Initial budget: $80-90 million
- Final production cost: around $100 million
- Coogler personally covered about $20 million of the extra costs
This makes Sinners one of the more expensive horror films made in recent years
