As a movie buff, I’m thrilled to share that the anticipated films for this year’s Cannes Film Festival have been unveiled, and boy, are we in for a treat! This year’s lineup promises some electrifying premieres such as Wes Anderson’s “The Phoenician Scheme”, Richard Linklater’s “Nouvelle Vague”, and Ari Aster’s “Eddington”. Can’t wait to immerse myself in these cinematic masterpieces!
One of the highly anticipated movies set to premiere at Cannes was Spike Lee’s latest production titled “Highest 2 Lowest.” This film features the talented Denzel Washington in the cast. However, a surprising turn of events occurred when the movie wasn’t included on the official list, causing quite a stir and sparking debate among cinema enthusiasts.
Currently, Spike Lee himself has taken it upon himself to set the record straight. Via his social media channels, he confirmed whether his upcoming film will indeed be screened at Cannes or not. Continue reading for further details!
Titled “Highest 2 Lowest,” this crime drama is set to feature Washington alongside a stellar cast that includes Ilfenesh Hadera, Jeffrey Wright, Ice Spice, ASAP Rocky, Dean Winters, and John Douglas Thompson. The film is a fresh take on the 1963 classic “High and Low,” originally directed by Kurosawa. This remake, in itself, is an adaptation of the novel “King’s Ransom” penned by Ed McBain (Evan Hunter).
The film is set for release by A24 and later streaming on AppleTV+, though it was initially planned to debut at Cannes this year. However, when it didn’t appear on the festival’s lineup, concerns arose. But, Spike Lee himself confirmed that the movie will, in fact, have its premiere in France.

The new Spike Lee joint, starring my brother Denzel Washington, titled ‘HIGHEST 2 LOWEST’, has been invited to the 2025 Cannes International Film Festival (in the Out of Competition category). And that’s a toast to the truth, Ruth. You got it? Absolutely. France, strong! USA, strong! Cheers!
