Hailee Steinfeld is riding high in Hollywood as her latest thriller Sinners continues to dominate the box office, and her chemistry with co-star Michael B. Jordan is generating just as much conversation as the film itself. While engaged to Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen , the actress-singer has embraced her spotlight moment, even as fans speculate about her growing closeness with Jordan.

The suspense-packed film Sinners, in which Michael B. Jordan, who plays twin brothers Smoke and Stack, has held the No. 1 spot for two straight weeks, with Hailee Steinfeld earning critical praise for her role as Mary. Their on-screen connection has captivated audiences—and ignited a firestorm online.

Things heated up when IMAX announced it was pulling Sinners from theaters to make room for Marvel’s Thunderbolts, only to walk it back and schedule a one-week re-release beginning May 15. Jordan excitedly shared the update on Instagram, and Steinfeld quickly reposted it, accompanied by a cozy behind-the-scenes selfie of the two stars.

“We are so back,” Steinfeld captioned the post—echoing Jordan’s sentiment and only fueling more speculation about their off-screen closeness. Fans quickly noticed the chemistry in the photo, with some wondering how Josh Allen feels about his fiancée’s strong professional bond with one of Hollywood’s most admired leading men.

The social media buzz intensified after an X user jokingly suggested a “settlement” between Allen and Jordan: “Only reasonable way for Michael B. Jordan and Josh Allen to settle this is for Michael to spend a season with the Carolina Panthers and Josh to star as the next Black Panther.”

Despite the playful (and sometimes pointed) speculation, Steinfeld remains unbothered. She continues to show her appreciation for Buffalo and Allen, while fully leaning into the success of Sinners and her creative partnership with Jordan.
