Back in the day, a film’s cast was often the main reason people flocked to cinemas, irrespective of the plot. Today, Tom Cruise and Michael B. Jordan are among the rare actors who can fill seats just by being on the marquee. Interestingly, Michael B. Jordan is emulating this trend, and he’s receiving valuable guidance from another prominent Hollywood star on maintaining such stardom.
In the age of the internet and social media, where we have an unprecedented glimpse into many actors’ lives, the allure of traditional movie stars seems to be fading due to a lack of mystery surrounding them. However, Michael B. Jordan has deliberately kept some enigma by limiting his public exposure, as he discussed in an interview with Vulture. He shared that he received valuable guidance from Denzel Washington on this topic…
Why would they pay to see you on a weekend if they see you all week for free?
It’s understandable to think that way. If a movie star’s charm lies in their rarity, too much publicity could indeed diminish that allure. For instance, Tom Cruise is a good example as he has only recently adopted social media and keeps his posts centered around his work rather than revealing every detail of his personal life like some other celebrities do.
Michael B. Jordan’s personal life has had a fair share of public scrutiny, with his relationship with Lori Harvey being a notable example, which ended a few years back. Since then, there hasn’t been much information about his romantic affairs, leading us to speculate that he might be following Denzel Washington’s advice. Just like Tom Cruise and Denzel Washington, there are always whispers about the relationships of movie stars when facts are scarce.
In essence, it seems like the approach they took paid off. Michael B. Jordan’s latest project with Ryan Coogler, titled “Sinners“, has been unexpectedly successful in the 2025 film calendar. It’s challenging to quantify how much of that success is due to Jordan’s star power, but given the struggles many films face finding an audience nowadays, the fact that “Sinners” was a hit is indeed significant for Jordan.
In one sense, Michael B. Jordan has already achieved stardom equal to major film actors. Tom Cruise elevated the popularity of “Sinners” upon its release, and Jordan graced the red carpet for the premiere of “Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning.
