"Many have tried to remake the great Akira Kurosawa's 1963 thriller masterpiece High and Low, but for one reason or another, the various attempts never got off the ground. Martin Scorsese, Mike Nichols, and Steven Spielberg are just some of the significant filmmakers who tried to get a new interpretation of the ground, and not even their visions ever made it far enough into development. Now, over sixty years after the original film premiered, legendary filmmaker Spike Lee, world-renowned star Denzel Washington, and hugely successful production company A24 have already made some meaningful strides in getting a High and Low remake made.


The original 1963 film follows Kingo Gondo (played by Akira Kurosawa regular Toshirô Mifune) - an affluent business executive who runs an embattled show-making company. Kingo Gondo's life is changed dramatically when he's informed that his son has been abducted by an unknown party, who are now demanding a ransom in exchange for his safe return. However, Kingo Gondo soon learns that the young man abducted by the kidnappers was not his son, but rather the child of Aoki (Yutaka Sada), his chauffeur. Now, the wealthy business executive must decide between maintaining his fortune and protecting his family or paying the ransom to save an innocent child.

Spike Lee's anticipated remake of the Kurosawa project is already in active development, and as this will likely be Lee's first non-documentary feature film since 2020's Da 5 Bloods, that only amplifies the anticipation. To learn more about the upcoming revitalization of an all-time classic, as well as its cast, release window, plot details, and more, here is everything we know so far about Spike Lee's High and Low remake."

It's one of Kurosawa's lesser known films, but if Spike messes this up people WILL come for him over it. Oldboy was OK, but the stakes are higher here. Every film student's going to have something to say about it.

Some of you try to hard to be positive

She shouldn’t be appearing in a role opposite a list actors. Let her start on some low budget teen comedy like little Kim did.

Keep in mind this is the same women who gave us this incredible line.

YOU THINK YOU THE SHIT? YOU AINT EVEN A FART. SMH
