The unexpected news was confirmed Wednesday by Variety and spawned polarized reactions among certain cinephiles and rap fans, who are respectively baffled Lee would remake another classic and choose an unproven talent to star opposite Washington.

Spice has only released one EP, but has already worked with industry titans like Nicki Minaj, received four Grammy nods and won an MTV Video Music Award for best new artist. She’s even become friends with Taylor Swift and attended the Super Bowl with her.
