21 Years Later, Denzel Washington’s Thrilling 'Taken' Replacement Sets Streaming Ablaze

Star Denzel Washington is currently enjoying the success of his fifth collaboration with director Spike Lee, the crime-thriller Highest 2 Lowest, which has been ruling the Apple TV+ charts ever since its release a couple of weeks ago. The actor-director duo hadn't collaborated in nearly two decades, and Highest 2 Lowest was considered well worth the wait by fans. However, during this time, Washington forged a winning partnership with another director, Tony Scott, who had a flashy visual style. Among their finest films is Man on Fire, which recently debuted on Netflix and found itself jumping straight into the streamer's global viewership charts.
