If there is one thing you can expect from Spike Lee's wrist, that's unexpected. He brought his controversial and confrontational film style to every genre under the sun, from gruesome plays to satirical comedies, musicals and vampire stains and everything in between. So when Lee brought his police officers and robbers who blink "inside the man" in the 2006 theaters, he did what was really unexpected: he did directly after the middle -aged Hollywood image starring his reliable leading man Denzel Washington, though the one with Lee's characteristic.

Inspired by the classic crime thriller of Sidney Lumme "Dog Dog afternoon", Who director called one of his favorite films of all time, Lee used the film for a bank robbery as an opportunity to collect a microcosm of the variety of pots in a news pot between the bank's hostages. As the pulling is dragging on to "inside a man", we must see how people from the Big Apple (or not) manage when they are under pressure.

"Inside Man" was originally set to be Directed by Ron Howard Before deciding to make the movie "Russell Crow", "Cinderella man" instead. When Lee got inside, he turned the film into his most satisfaction with the crowd. The result was the biggest hit of the box office in his long career, earning about $ 186 million to the global treasurer.

So, you may be surprised to hear that there is really a sequel to "inside a man" for which you have definitely never heard ... because Universal did it without Lee or Washington.

After Inside Man fled the box office, a continuation of the development was also published with the writer of the original film Russell Gervitz and director Spike Lee in the return negotiations. However, the first sign of trouble was when Gervitz was replaced by writer Terry Georgeorje in 2008, with Lee still struck the film by saying he would follow the Bank of Clive Owen's Bank, Dalton Russell, climbing a new heist. Nyujork, whale phrasier. Despite starting from scratch, Lee was excited to work on the film with the main team returning, including Foster and Chivel Egio.

Then, three years later, the project was frivolously canceled. In an interview with Charlie RoseLee explained that despite the mass success of the first film, no financier was ready to raise the money to bring the sequel to life.

But then, in 2019, a CEO in the studio decided that the bad sequel to "inside the man" was better than no "inside man" sequel, and that is when "inside the man: the most wanted" suddenly appeared on Netflix. Access directly to home media is classic for low-budget extensions located on the coastline of name recognition and "Inside Man: The most sought after" is no exceptionoffering only a slightly better version of the typical DTV trash.

Because of his tendency to take over the controversial topic, Spike has always advanced as an independent director. However, with the success of "inside man", he hoped the sequel would be an easy project to get off the ground. But when the said sequel failed to come true, it was a characteristic blunt when he describes his frustrations with the process in the mentioned interview of Charlie Rose, noting that although "inside a man" is his most successful film, he was obsessed with the same problem he always faced: money.

"First of all, what in this world doesn't revolve around the money? But the money is a big part of the film, unlike many other art forms," Lee noted.

While some Inside Man fans may not have been aware of "in man: the most sought after" ever existed so far, they will surely be aware of The next collaboration of Lee and Denzel Washington, "the highest 2 lowest". Akira Kurosawa's legendary "High & Low" remake is just a spiritual sequel to Inside Man, as Washington follows in another game with cats and mice across the streets of Newouper.

When he was asked about his thoughts on "Inside Man: The Most Wanted" (which brings only the smallest connection to his original film), the director could only joke about the eyes of the film. He then continued to complain to a universal who does not want to pay for Washington what they owed them for the first film, rather than resorting to cheap follow -up in South Africa.

While not satisfied with how everything went behind the scenes, he was eventually happy that he simply did not direct "remake" on his film and instead had to bring "the highest 2 lowest" to Cannes on Malcolm F. As for Washington's thoughts, he seems to have yet to make any public comments on "inside man: the most sought after", probably because he has much better things with his time.
