In the world of crime thrillers, style often takes a back seat to gritty realism. But that's not the case with Spike Lee's latest film, "Highest 2 Lowest," which has been turning heads with its sleek and stylish power suits.

The film, set to be released on August 15, 2025, is a modern English-language reinterpretation of Akira Kurosawa’s 1963 procedural "High and Low." It stars Denzel Washington, Jeffrey Wright, Ilfenesh Hadera, ASAP Rocky, and Ice Spice in her film debut. The plot revolves around David King, a renowned music mogul, played by Washington, whose life is turned upside down when his godson is kidnapped.

The power suits in the trailer are a key part of the film's overall aesthetic. They are primarily black, with some featuring metallic accents, and are worn by characters in both high-stakes and casual scenes. The suits, which appear to be custom-made for the characters, have a double-breasted jacket in some instances and are paired with matching trousers and ties.

The suits, according to many, are a nod to the film's 1963 source material. In the trailer, Denzel Washington, Jeffrey Wright, Ice Spice, and ASAP Rocky are all seen wearing these power suits, adding an element of sophistication to the high-stakes kidnapping plot.

The trailer for "Highest 2 Lowest" was released this week, and it has already been hailed as one of the year's most stylish movies. Six standout style moments from the trailer were highlighted, further emphasizing the film's commitment to fashion.

"Highest 2 Lowest" premiered out of competition at the Cannes Film Festival on May 19, 2025, and it has already received strong critical acclaim, holding around a 92% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes prior to its U.S. theatrical release. The film will be distributed by A24 and will be available for streaming on Apple TV+ on September 5, 2025.

For those who appreciate both style and suspense, "Highest 2 Lowest" promises to be a must-watch.
