Apple and A24 dropped the official trailer for Highest 2 Lowest, the much-anticipated crime thriller directed by Spike Lee. This film marks Lee’s first collab with Denzel Washington since Inside Man in 2006, with A$AP Rocky joining the cast for a gritty NYC showdown.
Inspired by Akira Kurosawa’s High and Low, the story flips the classic hostage plot into a modern music industry battle. Washington plays a mogul fighting for his life after a case of mistaken identity sparks a city-wide crisis.
Also starring Jeffrey Wright, Ilfenesh Hadera, and Ice Spice, the film debuted at Cannes and hits theaters August 15 before streaming on Apple TV+ September 5. Get ready for Spike Lee’s signature style mixed with fresh NYC heat.
