Oscar winners Denzel Washington and Spike Lee mark their fifth collaboration with A24’s Highest 2 Lowest. A reinterpretation of Akira Kurosawa’s High and Low, the crime thriller’s official trailer sets up a battle between Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky.
The film also stars Oscar nominee Jeffrey Wright (American Fiction) and Ilfenesh Hadera (Godfather of Harlem).
“When a titan music mogul (Washington), widely known as having the ‘best ears in the business,’ is targeted with a ransom plot, he is jammed up in a life-or-death moral dilemma,” reads A24’s synopsis.
Denzel Washington and Spike Lee’s successful collaboration began with Mo’ Better Blues in 1990. 1992’s Malcolm X came next, followed by He Got Game in 1998 and 2006’s Inside Man. Their fifth collaboration will open in theaters on August 15, 2025, followed by a streaming debut on Apple TV+ on September 5.
Alan Fox wrote the screenplay and Todd Black and Jason Michael Berman serve as producers. Spike Lee’s behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Matthew Libatique, production designer Mark Friedberg, and editors Barry Alexander Brown and Allyson C. Johnson.
