Following The Success Of Sinners, Michael B. Jordan Is Setting Up A New Franchise Role, And It's An Exciting Fit

Michael B. Jordan in Sinners.

Michael B. Jordan is obviously no stranger to success, but it can be said that his career has hit a special new high in 2025. He has been a part of some massive movies, including the Creed trilogy and Black Panther, but his star power was a key ingredient in the blockbuster success of Sinners (a film not based on any existing intellectual property and featuring the actor delivering a phenomenal dual performance). His name has a lot of heat right now, which is why it is not surprising in the least to see that he is in the mix for a lot of exciting projects, with the latest being Joseph Kosinski's upcoming Miami Vice reboot.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, Jordan has entered talks to sign on for the new film based on the classic 1980s crime series, and should he end up signing on the dotted line, he will be playing Ricardo Tubbs, one of the two leads (a character previously played by Philip Michael Thomas on the aforementioned TV show and Jamie Foxx in Michael Mann's 2006 movie adaptation). An actor has not yet signed on for the role of James Crockett, Tubbs' fellow undercover detective working for Miami's Metro-Dade Police Department.
