In 2013, "Time" magazine said Ryan was one of the important young people changing the world. In 2018, he almost became "Time" Person of the Year. He is known as one of the most influential people globally. 

Ryan Coogler's Lavish Lifestyle

Back in 2018, Ryan Coogler bought a house in Oakland, California. He paid $1.6 million for it. The house was built a long time ago, in 1924. It's in a special part of the city called Adams Point. It's a place with a lot of history. 

Coogler has also done some business with buildings. In 2019, he got a whole building in Oakland's Uptown area. He spent $3.3 million on it. This building is close to the Fox Theater. Now, this building is where Coogler's production company, Proximity Media, does its work.  

Then, in 2020, Ryan got another building in San Francisco. This time he paid $4.2 million for it. It's in the Mission District, near a place called the 16th Street BART station. This is where his production company, Outlier Society, does its work now.  

Coogler has been busy with other buildings too. He bought a building in Oakland's Fruitvale area for $1.2 million.

Ryan Coogler's Successful Career

Ryan Coogler is a filmmaker from the United States. He is known for making movies that shine a light on cultures and characters that don't always get a lot of attention, especially African Americans. 

Coogler has won many awards, like the NAACP Image Awards and the Black Reel Awards. He was also picked for a Golden Globe Award and two Academy Awards.  

Ryan started with a movie called "Fruitvale Station" in 2013. It was an independent film and it did really well. It won big prizes at the Sundance Film Festival and the Cannes Film Festival. 

After that, Coogler worked on more movies. One was "Creed" in 2015, which is part of the Rocky series. Then came "Black Panther" in 2018. This movie was super successful and it earned the most money ever for a film by an African American director. Ryan didn't stop there - he also made the sequel to "Black Panther," called "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," in 2022. 

People love Ryan's movies because they bring attention to cultures and characters that are often forgotten. He often works with two important people: actor Michael B. Jordan and composer Ludwig Göransson.  

In 2021, Coogler, his wife Zinzi Coogler, and Sev Ohanian started a company called Proximity Media. They want to make all kinds of content that brings people together. 

Ryan Coogler Controversies

One big argument was about a part of "Fruitvale Station." In that scene, a dog gets hurt. Even though it didn't really happen, Ryan Coogler said it was needed for the story and for the actor, Michael B. Jordan. This part was inspired by Grant's wish to have a dog. It also looked at how pit bulls and young African-American guys are shown in the media. 

There's another time when Coogler got into trouble. He was wrongly thought to be trying to rob a bank in Atlanta. This happened because the bank saw his account with more than $10,000 and got worried. They thought he was up to something bad. The police even put him in handcuffs while they checked everything, but they soon let him go. The bank said sorry for what happened, and Ryan accepted the apology.  

The last time something happened, it was about Letitia Wright, an actor in "Black Panther." Some people said she didn't like vaccines, and this made it hard to make the sequel to the movie, "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever." Ryan talked about this and said they all wanted to work together. One of the people who helped make the movie also said they didn't ask anyone about vaccines.
