He proclaimed, Only a black can do this film, before director Norman Jewison departed the project.
This is not a loan, Lee said during a press conference in 1992.
They are not investing in the film.
These are black folks with some money who came to the rescue of the movie.
As a result, this film will be my version.

Malcolm Xgrossed $48.2 million and earned two Oscar nominations, including best actor for Washingtons performance.
Lee will helm the film with Peele producing.
