ASAP Rocky was filled with excitement as he met up once again with Denzel Washington and Spike Lee during the photo session of their upcoming project, Highest 2 Lowest, at the 78th Cannes Film Festival on Monday. The multi-talented artist wore a black shirt under a white suit, adding gold earrings, sunglasses, and braided hair to his ensemble. On the other hand, Washington chose a straightforward look with a black t-shirt matched with a plain shirt. The film’s director, a Cannes Film Festival veteran, opted for a casual style, donning a white hat, t-shirt, and pants.
Today, the movie titled “Highest 2 Lowest” will make its debut outside the competition at the French film festival. This film is a remake of Akira Kurosawa’s “High and Low,” with minor adjustments to the original plot. Additionally, this marks Denzel Washington’s first-ever appearance at Cannes during the photocall event.
Today holds a unique significance not only due to Washington’s premiere at Cannes, but it also marks the centennial anniversary of Malcolm X’s birth. In recognition, director Lee paid tribute to him through his 1992 film featuring Washington.

The movie delves into issues of social disparity and ethical dilemmas, making it Lee’s sixth feature to be chosen for this esteemed film festival.
From swanky areas near the East River up to Brighton Beach in Brooklyn, the story of Highest 2 Lowest centers on a music executive, portrayed by Washington, whose struggling profession experiences a more ominous twist as he finds himself under the shadow of a ransom threat.
During an interview with Vulture prior to the screening, Lee expressed that he believes the festival evolves as the world does, but has consistently provided him with a memorable experience. He also emphasized that it serves not only for American filmmakers, but for filmmakers worldwide to present their work to the global audience.
