Spike Lee will introduce Ice Spice, the actor, in his new movie High and Low, Variety reports. Adapted from the Akira Kurosawa classic, the A24 and Apple Original Films production has already begun filming, Apple noted yesterday. Denzel Washington stars in the movie, resuming the ongoing partnership with Lee that started in 1990 with Mo’ Better Blues. This will be their first film together since 2006’s Inside Man.
Lee wrote the new film’s script with Alan Fox, the playwright of 2019’s Safe Space. High and Low will be Lee’s first feature since 2020’s Da 5 Bloods.
Ice Spice is gearing up to release her debut album, Y2K, this year. Our first whiff was January’s “Think U the Shit (Fart).”
