The film Sinners (2025) was primarily shot in various locations across Louisiana, despite being set in Clarksdale, Mississippi. Key filming locations included:

  • Donaldsonville, Louisiana, where the historic Railroad Avenue was transformed into a 1930s street with period-appropriate buildings and props to stand in for Clarksdale
  • Braithwaite, Louisiana, where the production built the twins' juke joint and utilized the wide-open, undeveloped land for outdoor scenes
  • Labadieville, Louisiana, which provided rural and scenic backdrops for suspenseful sequences
  • Additional filming took place in New Orleans and Bogalusa, Louisiana

Although the story is set in the Mississippi Delta, the filmmakers chose Louisiana for its suitable historic towns and landscapes that could be adapted to the 1930s setting. Filming occurred from April to July 2024

. In summary, Sinners was filmed mainly in Louisiana locations such as Donaldsonville, Braithwaite, Labadieville, New Orleans, and Bogalusa, rather than in Mississippi itself
