Spike Lee Launches Kickstarter Campaign

Spike

The current climate for independent filmmakers is tough. Ask Spike Lee. Yes, Spike is an independent filmmaker and he's been doing it for the best part of 30 years. The problem is, being backed and getting the money behind a project isn't that easy. Unless, of course, you're making a superhero sequel.

That being said, Lee has turned to the people to hopefully fund his "Newest Hottest Spike Lee Joint". His remake of "Oldboy" is wrapped and will be with us shortly but he already has the next movie planned. Yesterday he launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise the money needed to produce the next addition to his brilliant catalogue.

Watch his campaign video below and read his letter to the "Faithful" here.
