Spike Lee has released the first trailer for his A24 and Apple-backed crime thriller "Highest 2 Lowest" starring Denzel Washington, A$AP Rocky and more. The movie will be released in theaters August 22 and stream on Apple TV+ starting Sept.

Ahead of the film's debut at the Cannes Film Festival in a couple of weeks, A24 and Apple have revealed the first teaser trailer for "Highest 2 Lowest." The new Spike Lee joint stars Denzel Washington as a music mogul with a reputation for having the "best ears in the business" who is targeted with a ransom plot.

Rocky stars alongside Denzel Washington in Spike Lee’s “new joint,” Highest 2 Lowest. The director dropped it himself on Instagram on May 5 at 11:00 a.m. ET, just two hours after A24 tweeted that the teaser would debut on May 6.
