If you’ve scrolled through your feed this week and haven’t seen Sinners at least once—are you even online? Ryan Coogler’s dark, stylish thriller has dropped, starring Michael B. Jordan and Hailee Steinfeld front and center. Yes, the one and only Hailee, currently engaged to the Bills QB Josh Allen.
Now, while the film hardly needed anymore noise—it’s already racked up over $71.3 million globally by Day 4—Allen still delivered an MVP-level assist. “It was awesome. Different world. A very cool experience,” he told reporters during OTAs. “I’m excited for her and I’m proud of her… So, go watch it.”
And he’s not just saying that to be polite. Allen showed up, suited up, and did what any good QB does—he played the support game like it was a playoff drive. “That was her moment, and I’m so glad she got to shine,” he added. Shine might be an understatement for how well the fans have embraced the Sinners film globally. It has delivered.
The opening overseas haul was $15.5 million, and early reviews have critics calling it a slick, genre-bending win. Hailee’s role as Mary? The kind of performance that turns heads and locks in awards even before the nominations. Just ask the internet.
But this isn’t just about the movie. Steinfeld went full two-way star—pulling double duty as both lead actor and music contributor. “It created this really fluid creative loop,” she told Billboard, explaining how deeply she was tied into the film’s rhythm. That’s the football equivalent of a unicorn player. In her case, she was on screen and in the studio. Not many can do both. She did.
Allen, of course, was there through it all. Red carpet premieres, private screenings, and hyping the film. Meanwhile, Steinfeld’s been just as present—sitting quietly in the stands at Highmark Stadium, cheering him on as he notched 40+ touchdowns again. Mutual support? These two are basically running the new era football couple show with obviously laborious competition from Trav and Tay (ah, well).
And just like the fans are asking the wedding questions from them, Allen and Hailee are getting on the end of those questions as well.
All the spotlight is on Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld’s ‘The Day’
So, about the wedding. The Josh Allen–Hailee Steinfeld one that has fans counting down like it’s the NFL Draft clock. But if you’re hoping for a date, venue, or even a floral theme? You’ll have to wait a little longer.
“We’re in the middle of a press tour,” Steinfeld told ExtraTV with a laugh. “We got a movie coming out in 12 days? Six, something. We’re focused on that.”
Look, the questions have been up and coming ever since Allen dropped to one knee in November 2024 and proposed. In the middle of the season, the Bills’ guy under center orchestrated a sunset scene that looked like it belonged on a movie set. Flower arch? Check. Dozens of candles? Check. Diamond ring? Double check. The couple shared the moment with a minimalist “11•22•24” caption and an infinity emoji.
But don’t let the quiet rollout fool you. Behind the scenes, plays are being drawn up. Sources say the game plan is all about timing. With Allen’s season now in the rearview and Steinfeld juggling red carpets and interviews for Sinners, the two are trying to slot in a date between OTAs and opening night. Word is they’re already in “location scouting” mode.
One insider told US Weekly, “It will be a very intimate but extravagant event.” And yeah, don’t expect them to stretch this into a long engagement. They’re running no-huddle.
So, maybe we can circle May or June on our mental calendars. Because between movie premieres and preseason schedules, the window’s tight. But from what we could concur through the source’s words, both, the bride and the groom want it planned to the T. So, we are looking at a touchdown celebration in the making.
