Apple Original Films and A24 are partnering on High and Low, which reunites longtime collaborators Spike Lee and Denzel Washington with Washington starring and Lee directing. A24 will release the film theatrically before its global launch on Apple TV+.
The film is an English-language reinterpretation of Akira Kurosawa’s 1963 crime thriller. While its unknown how similar the High and Low plot will be, Kurosawa’s movie follows an executive at a Yokohama shoe company who becomes a victim of extortion when his chauffeur’s son is kidnapped by mistake and held for ransom.
Developed and produced by A24, Escape Artists and Mandalay Pictures and written by Alan Fox and Lee, the new thriller starts production in March. High and Low will be produced by Todd Black for Escape Artists and Jason Michael Berman for Mandalay Pictures. In addition to directing, Lee will serve as executive producer through his 40 Acres and a Mule Filmworks. Mandalay’s Peter Guber will serve as executive producer, along with Juniper Productions’ Matthew Lindner, Chris Brigham and Katia Washington. Mandalay’s Jordan Moldo is co-producing.
The project marks the fifth time the two Oscar winners have worked together, most recently on 2006’s Inside Man, along with Malcolm X, He Got Game and Mo’ Better Blues. According to sources, they started showing interest in working together on the project last spring, but the idea was tabled when the WGA and SAG AFTRA strikes forced production to halt on the Gladiator sequel starring Washington. With the strikes resolved and production on Gladiator wrapped, High Aand Low became priority for the two.
The film marks the second collaboration for Apple Original Films and Washington following the multi-Oscar-nominated The Tragedy of Macbeth, also from A24, which landed Washington his seventh nomination for Best Actor amid 10 overall. He won Best Actor for 2001’s Training Day and Supporting Actor for 1989’s Glory.
Washington is represented by WME, Lee is represented by Gersh and Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks, and Fox is represented by Grandview.

FEEDING OFF THE LOVE OF THE LAND
Lyrics And Music By Stevie Wonder
Orchestral Arrangement By Bill Lee
From End Credits Of Jungle Fever
[Verse 1]
Seems the wisdom of man hasn’t got much wiser
Than the very beginning of our time
Agree or war has been our way of compromising
“Let live and love” has become our biggest lie
Seems to me that fools are even more foolish
Thinking of themselves and nobody else
But then if asked for poor will riches be replenished
They say bootstraps must be pulled up by themselves
[Chorus]
Feeding off the love of the land
Leaving much to be desired
Living off the love of the Lord
While the price for life is higher
Isn’t love to be admired?
Has the good in man expired?
Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land
[Verse 2]
I awake each morning to the birds a-singing
Singing out to God to come and save his own
But when throughout the world the cry of love is ringing
Is then when He’ll stop to hear our song
Did you know that when you feel the earth a-shaking
It’s only Mother Nature with a crying heart
You see, we have taken from her for so many ages
Will there be a time when taking stops and giving starts?
[Chorus]
‘Cause we’re feeding off the love of the land
Leaving much to be desired
Living off the love of the Lord
While the price for life is higher
Isn’t love to be admired?
Has the good in man expired?
Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land
[Outro]
Yes, we’re feeding off the love of the land
Never hearing what He’s saying
Living off the love of the Lord
Never feeling what you’re praying
Never praising Him for beauty
Only praying God please give me
Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land
Stealing all the love and the beauty from His land
