Sinners' Miles Caton Reacts to Michael B. Jordan’s Oscar Win

“I’m gonna miss spending time with the cast,” he said, adding, “When you share an experience so special, it’s like—it just brings everybody together. We’ve experienced something that nobody else has experienced. It’s special.”

Yet as hard as it is to say goodbye, the 21-year-old—for whom Sinners was his breakout role—knows he’s walking away with invaluable experience.

While working on the set alongside the likes of Ryan, Michael, Wunmi Mosaku and Hailee Steinfeld, Miles learned “what it means to lead, to be a leader,” he explained. “Seeing Ryan and Mike lead and collaborate, to make that team and that community of people, and that strong foundation—I think I’ve learned that most.”

Plus, he’s looking forward to seeing where this journey takes him.

Though the end feels bittersweet, Miles affirmed he’s “so excited to continue to grow and to continue to venture,” he said. “And do different things—and to see everybody else grow, too.”

But for now, Miles and the rest of the Sinners cast celebrated the film’s wins with Vanity Fair—though Michael made a quick pit stop at In ‘n Out to refuel.
