Spike Lee Thanks A$AP Rocky Jury for Acquittal, Allowing Rapper to Promote Film

Spike Lee is one of the many supporters happy to see A$AP Rocky beat his assault trial, and for great reason … the movie he stars in is now able to move full steam ahead!!!

On Tuesday, the acclaimed director thanked the hip hop superstar’s jury of his peers for not buying A$AP Relli‘s claims and finding the rapper not guilty — and Spike shared the first look of their upcoming film “Highest 2 Lowest.”

Rocky stars opposite Denzel Washington in Spike Lee’s reimagination of Japanese filmmaker Akira Kurosawa‘s 1963 film “High & Low” … and Rocky will undoubtedly be on board for the press runs.

His trial caused him to miss out on pumping his latest flick, “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You” … and now he’s wound up acquitted, much to the delight of his costars.

Rocky’s already been celebrating the verdict … he and Rihanna hit the town last night and were all smiles for the cameras.
