Denzel Washington’s Highest 2 Lowest has recently hit theaters, and fans are eagerly anticipating the film’s digital and streaming release date. This film, co-produced and distributed by Apple Studios and A24, is the fifth collaboration between Washington and director Spike Lee. The duo previously worked together on four projects: Inside Man, He Got Game, Mo’ Better Blues, and Malcolm X. Their recent project is a reinterpretation of Akira Kurosawa’s 1963 film High and Low. In it, a powerful music mogul finds himself caught in a ransom plot that not only puts his life at risk but also challenges his morals.
So, when can fans expect Highest 2 Lowest’s digital and streaming release date? Here’s what you need to know.
When could Highest 2 Lowest get its digital release date?
Highest 2 Lowest’s digital release date has not been officially revealed. However, it could drop sometime in September 2025. Or perhaps the makers can skip the digital release and go straight for a streaming release in this case.
Many recent theatrical films have seen their digital releases take place one month after their theatrical runs. For instance, Ballerina, which premiered in June 2025, became available on digital platforms in July. However, it’s possible that Apple could choose to forego a digital release on platforms like Amazon in favor of directly releasing the film on Apple TV+, likely to encourage viewers to get a subscription to check out the film.
When will Highest 2 Lowest begin streaming on Apple TV+?
Highest 2 Lowest will start streaming on Apple TV+ on September 5, 2025.
Thus, the film comes out 21 days after its theatrical release on August 15.
Spike Lee directed Highest 2 Lowest from a script penned by William Alan Fox. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a fresh score of 90% and an audience score of 87%.
Besides Washington, the film’s cast comprises Jeffrey Wright, Ilfenesh Hadera, A$AP Rocky, Ice Spice, Dean Winters, and John Douglas Thompson, among others.
