Who composed the score for the 2026 Golden Globe-winning film Sinners?

The story behind the answer

Ludwig Göransson composed the score for Sinners, which won the 2026 Golden Globe for Best Original Score.

Göransson’s music helps create the film’s period atmosphere while connecting its supernatural story to the cultural history of the blues. The score works alongside songs and live musical performances that are central to the film’s plot.

Sinners was written and directed by Ryan Coogler and stars Michael B. Jordan in dual roles. Its narrative is set in Mississippi in 1932, where a pair of brothers establish a juke joint and face a violent supernatural danger.

Göransson’s Golden Globe win continued a notable awards career. His earlier film work includes the Black Panther films, Tenet, and Oppenheimer, as well as television projects and concert-oriented compositions.
