Ice Spice is taking her talents to Hollywood with a debut acting role alongside Denzel Washington in a new Spike Lee film.
What Role Will Ice Spice Play in High and Low?
The Bronx baddie has already started filming scenes for her role in the crime thriller High and Low, a film directed by Spike Lee. While the character Ice Spice will play has not been revealed, she certainly seems ready for action. The rapper has been dipping her toes in the acting waters over the last six months in commercials for Dunkin’, in which she starred alongside Ben Affleck, and Starry.
The movie itself is set to be an reinterpretation of Akira Kurosawa’s original 1963 race-against-time thriller of the same name. High and Low is based on Ed McBain’s 1959 novel King’s Ransom, a story centered on a wealthy man who’s forced to choose between using his riches for himself or saving the life of a kidnapped child.
Apple Original Films and A24 have partnered on the effort, which will be released theaters before going global on AppleTV+.
High and Low marks the fifth movie Denzel Washington and Spike have worked on together. Their past works include Mo’ Better Blues, Malcolm X, Inside Man and Champs.
