Overview

  • Denzel Washington, 70, told Spike Lee and A$AP Rocky, “I don’t watch movies… I’m tired of movies,” during the filmed conversation.
  • When asked how many films he has made, he answered, “Too many. I think 50,” a rough tally of his decades-long career.
  • The disclosure arrives after he recently said he doesn’t make films for Oscars and is “not that interested” in winning more awards.
  • Highest 2 Lowest premiered at Cannes, is currently in select theaters, and will stream on Apple TV+ starting Sept. 5.
  • Earlier suggestions he might slow down were later clarified as a commitment to being selective rather than a firm retirement plan.
