The two took the Culture Stage to discuss arts and culture topics including crafting and finding your voice as a director, the importance of authentic storytelling, artistic collaboration and inspiration, advice for creatives in attendance and beyond, and teasing the upcoming THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR.

CultureCon 2026's official theme was the 'Museum of Us.'

Following the panel, CultureCon founder Imani Ellis presented director and star Michael B. Jordan with the Legacy in Motion Award, which is dedicated to an artist whose every move — on-screen, behind the camera, and in the boardroom — continues to build a blueprint for generations to come.

THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR is in theaters everywhere this March 2027. The film is only in theaters March 5, 2027.
