Denzel Washington confronts a photographer at the premiere of his film Highest 2 Lowest in Cannes

Denzel Washington was seen snapping at a photographer on Monday during a tense, exchange on the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival.

While at the world premiere of Highest 2 Lowest, his upcoming film with Spike Lee, Denzel was talking with the director and his co-star A$AP Rocky, when someone grabbed his arm among a sea of photographers behind a barricade, according to video shared by The New York Post.

It’s unclear exactly who among the photographers initially grabbed the two-time Oscar winner – which was seemingly done to get his attention – but the move ticked off the actor, who shouted down one man while putting his finger in his face.

The photographer, in response, was seen laughing off the matter........
