Movie Preview: Denzel and Spike do Kurosawa –“Highest 2 Lowest”

Posted on August 4, 2025 by Roger Moore

Jeffrey Wright, Aubrey Joseph, Ilfenesh Hadera, A$AP Rocky, Wendell Pierce, Rick Fox and Ice Spice also star in Spike Lee’s version of Akira Kurosawa’s “High and Low,” the third take on that 1963 ransom script, this one set in the down and dirty music biz.

A24 is sending this out into theaters in the dog days (low BO expectations) of mid to late August (Aug. 15).
