I'm riding my man Obama. I think he's a visionary. Actually, Barack told me the first date he took Michelle to was 'Do the Right Thing.' I said, Thank God I made it. Otherwise you would have taken her to 'Soul Man.' Michelle would have been like 'What's wrong with this brother?'

I’m Back In The Editing Room And Looking At The Eighth And Final Chapter Of NYC EPICENTERS 9/11?2021½, i Respectfully Ask You To Hold Your Judgement Until You See The FINAL CUT. I Thank You.

The only people who said no was NYPD. They don’t look good in this. And that footage [of police officers assaulting Black Lives Matter protesters in 2020] does not lie. They were cracking heads.

People are going to think what they think, regardless. I’m not dancing around your question. People are going to think what they think.

I Thank The Screen Actors Guild For Their Support Of The Esteemed Ensemble Of DA 5 BLOODS. Also A Love Shout To All Of The Actors Who Did Da Damn Thang.

The character in my film' Da 5 Bloods,' Stormin' Norman, the way his brothers view him as like almost mythical. As Clarke Peters ' character says,' Clarke Peters ' character's Clarke Peters ' character.' They revered Clarke Peters ' character, and so Spike Lee just can't cast anybody for that, because the way these guys are describing Clarke Peters ' character, Clarke Peters ' character's mythic. So mythic Spike Lee're talking about an actor who played Jackie Robinson ; the Godfather, Soul Brother No. 1, James Brown ; Thurgood Marshall ; then Soul Brother No. 1.

I'd just like to say Woody Allen is Woody Allen and this cancel thing is not just Woody Allen.

Blacks are getting lynched left and right, and [Bagger Vance is] more concerned about improving Matt Damon's golf swing, green Book.

They wanted me to leave Madison Square Garden, walk outside... and come back on 31st Street. And I said I'm not doing that.

To me the Cannes Film Festival( besides being the most important film festival in the world -- no disrespect to anybody) has had a great impact on my film career, you could easily say Cannes changed the trajectory of who I became in world cinema.

In this life I have lived, my biggest blessings have been when they arrived unexpected, when they happened out of nowhere, when I got the call that I was offered the opportunity to be President of Cannes Jury for 2020, I was shocked, happy, surprised and proud all at the same time.
