Ryan Coogler's original film "Sinners" is set for ownership reversion to him in 2050, making it a financially strategic move. By creating a genre-bending vampire movie that has already earned over $200 million domestically, Coogler positions himself to reap long-term benefits from the film's revenues. Notably, experienced attorney Jonathan Handel explains that while Coogler makes substantial money now, he is also taking a gamble on the film's future value. This unique ownership arrangement places him among celebrated directors like Jim Jarmusch and Quentin Tarantino.
"Heâs definitely betting that it will have value in 25 years," Handel said.
Although Handel hasn't seen the contract, he explained how Coogler could make or lose money on this deal.
Coogler has made an original movie with 'Sinners', which could pay dividends for the rest of his life.
The unique terms of Cooglerâs deal give him ownership of 'Sinners' in 25 years, joining the ranks of renowned directors.
